Listen "S3EP90 // A Cancer & Surrogacy Story: The Most Unexpected Journey To Baby with Marissa B."

Episode Synopsis

On today's episode Emily speaks with cancer surviver and intended parent via surrogacy, Marissa G, about her most unexpected journey to baby. She hasn't been on a fertility rollercoaster, it has more been like going on Drop Zone time 5!

Marissa shares openly about her experience with being diagnosed with cervical cancer, and the mistreatment from doctors and nurses. She dives into how misinformed she was on how this would impact her fertility and shares how she has handled each step of the way (superstar is an understatement!)

Marissa goes in-depth about her fertility journey, which included multiple surgeries, procedures and ultimately surrogacy.

This is an intense, vulnerable, beautiful and heroic story about resiliency, perspective and desire.
