Show Notes
In today's episode of Finding Space, I’m joined by Maria Walsh MEP.
Many will know Maria from her work in politics and advocacy, and as the 2014 International Rose of Tralee, but today she joins me to share a very different and personal part of her life.
We talk about Maria’s decision to become a solo mum, her experience of fertility treatment and donor conception, pregnancy after treatment, how she's balanced it all alongside a demanding career, and why conversations like these matter.
A really open and personal conversation, and one I’m so grateful Maria took the time to share.
In this episode, we touch on: Choosing to become a solo mum Fertility treatment Donor conception Hormonal impact of treatment The importance of more open conversations around fertility and different paths to parenthood
