This week on Motherhood Intended, Jacqueline opens the episode with an honest reflection on why this season of the podcast has looked different — and why that difference has actually been a gift.

In this heartfelt intro, Jacqueline shares what life has looked like behind the scenes, including:
 • balancing toddlerhood, therapies, and packed family schedules
 • navigating a season of growth in marriage and motherhood
 • learning new systems and outsourcing for the first time
 • building Your Fertility Village from the ground up
• and embracing the idea that there is power in the pause

As the podcast approaches a short season break, Jacqueline also shares an update on the official launch of Your Fertility Village in the new year — and how listeners can join now as founding members for just $7/month, locked in for life.

After the intro, we revisit one of the most downloaded and consistently listened-to episodes in Motherhood Intended history:
“Boy Moms Talk Gender ‘Disappointment.’”

In this candid conversation, Jacqueline sits down with a fellow mom to discuss the rarely talked about — and often misunderstood — emotions surrounding gender disappointment. Together, they explore the complexity of these feelings, especially in the context of infertility, pregnancy after loss, and the pressure many parents feel to “just be grateful.”

This episode continues to resonate because it offers something many women need: permission to feel honestly, without judgment.

Whether you’re hearing this episode for the first time or returning to it years later, this conversation remains just as relevant — and just as validating.
