We had a really vulnerable conversation here, and we talked about a lot of different things and what that journey to motherhood looked like for me, what the messy middle looked like when I was navigating miscarriages and challenges in getting pregnant. And I'm so grateful for Becca for having these conversations so vulnerably with so many humans and hope that this feels as validating as it did for me and really would've in those seasons before I was able to enter into motherhood.
