BR- Why Barren Not Broken Podcast
This first episode is all about the why! Why a podcast, why now, why the name, why these guests, why my story matters, and why your story matters.
Jason and BR Part 1
Jason and I step into a place we honestly have never gone before within our own story. We share the inner workings of our hearts and our raw thoughts. This is our story. We know it won’t be like everyone else's, and while it might have similarities, it is our story. We hope we have shared it in a way that will help someone else as they walk their own story. Do you ever wonder, “Am I the only one to think or feel this way?” “Will we ever get through this?” Are you tired of feeling isolated in your own heartache? Jason and I hope that as we talk about real life, disappointments, loss, fears, intimacy, and hope that you will find your own place of settled peace and not be ashamed of where you are in your own journey!

Lauren, Melanie, & BR Part One
Join me, along with my BFFs, as we navigate friendship in the midst of infertility. Meet my friends, Lauren and Melanie! Lauren is married with three boys and owns her own business. Melanie and her husband are currently in Sweden for a 6 month work assignment with Ericsson and are not quite ready for children. They are two strong, loving, and brave women. We have a blast together! We are each in very different seasons of life. As many of you know, Jason and I have walked an 18 year infertility journey. We have had to learn to embrace each other despite the differences, navigate hard conversations, be willing to understand, and always support each other. Together we address the real issues that can arise in friendship when someone is journeying through infertility. We tackle tough issues like, baby showers, not knowing what to say, and cheering each other on even when it's hard. We navigate through the inner fears, presumptions and the difficulty of being willing to have hard conversations. Laugh with us, cry with us and let’s learn together how to maintain meaningful friendships in the midst of infertility. No matter the barren places in your life, let’s not live broken!
