[CLIENT SUCCESS] 48 y.o. Path to Success: Embryo Donation. Betsy’s Story (Ep. 94)
Description
Embryo Donation, Late Motherhood & Finding Peace After IVF — This is a heartfelt conversation with a past client of mine, Betsy.
She shares her personal story about perseverance, choice, and the unexpected routes to parenthood. “Nothing should go untried" - Betsy.
Betsy began her fertility journey in 2016, pursued multiple egg retrievals with no viable embryos, and ultimately discovered embryo donation in her mid-40s. She walks us through how she found a matchmaker, navigated the legal and counseling steps, traveled for transfers, and became a mother as a solo parent at the age of 48.
We talk honestly about grief and letting go, what it’s like to be an “older mom,” the practical logistics (lawyers, transfer costs, embryo transport), meeting her embryo donor, and the sense of peace and fierce love she feels now. This episode is for anyone wondering “Is it too late?” or looking for real-world insight into embryo donation as a pathway to parenthood.
I'm so grateful to Betsy for sharing her story and personal insights with us. One of them that resonated with me was, "I let go of a lot of things that didn’t really matter — and it helped me get quiet and focus on what I wanted.” — Betsy
