I’m thrilled to share my latest episode of The Egg Whisperer Show, where I sit down with the inspiring Alison Beder Solway. Alison is a fitness expert, author, and mother of four who has a unique and beautiful perspective on perseverance, self-advocacy, and hope. In this episode, we dive into her journey of expanding her family through surrogacy 25 years ago and her more recent experience of training for the New York City Marathon.

These two life-changing experiences inspired her memoir, The Miles We Run, where she shares how surrogacy and marathon running are deeply connected through themes of endurance, discipline, and resilience.

In this episode, we cover:

• How surrogacy and marathon training both teach endurance and resilience.
• The importance of self-advocacy in healthcare and personal journeys.
• Alison's reflections on hope and perseverance during life's challenges.
• Lessons from blending mental and physical strength to overcome obstacles.
• The inspiration behind Alison’s memoir, The Miles We Run.
