What I Learned the Hard Way About Surrogacy

Create A Happy Family

Show Notes

Choosing surrogacy isn't just about deciding to move forward — it's about knowing who you can trust to support you through the process.

In this episode, Monroe shares what he learned after going through two very different surrogacy journeys. Along the way, he offers perspective and advice shaped by what he experienced firsthand — including moments where transparency, ethics, and consistent support made all the difference.

Rather than theory, this conversation focuses on what stood out after experiencing journeys with two different agencies — and how working with the right people changed the entire experience.

This episode is for anyone researching surrogacy or egg donation who wants to feel informed, supported, and confident before taking the next step.
