Show Notes
This week we grow up a little and chat with the amazing Dr. Andrea Liner - a clinical psychologist and IVF mum who works with people dealing with infertility, loss, pregnancy, and postpartum. She’s both an expert and card-carrying member of the “been there - injected that” club. If you’re trying to stay sane while your ovaries do their thing, Andrea is your person. She knows "this s**t is hard." We cover how best to protect yourself, your brain-box and your partner as you wade through the swamp of IVF turmoil. With tips on keeping your relationship in good nick, intimacy and navigating our favourite subject; the unsolicited advice. At the end she didn’t say something really profound that definitely didn’t make us cry and we may or may not get a quote of it framed and put in our house.

Today is a balance of silly buggers and “Getting deep Deborahs.”
