On this week’s episode of The Worth a Shot Podcast, we’re reflecting on just how many times the word “no” showed up on our fertility journey.

No appointments available.
 No embryos.
 No insurance coverage.
 No answers.
 No baby.

But behind every one of those no’s, we found a reason to keep going. We’ll take you through each chapter of our story—the setbacks, the heartbreaks, the breakthroughs—and how we fought to keep hope alive, even when it felt impossible.

We’re also holding space for those whose journey led them to a different kind of ending. If you had to stop—whether because of finances, emotional burnout, or physical limits—we see your strength, and we honor your story too.

This episode is a love letter to the fighters, the question-askers, the ones who didn’t give up—and the ones who had the courage to let go.
