Show notes

Hello everyone welcome to A Pretty Normal Podcast, a show that re-imagines what society considers normal. Each week I interview different guests about the topics they’re most passionate about. This week I had the pleasure of interviewing Monique, the host of the Infertility and Me podcast. A show that spreads infertility awareness and inspiration and gives a platform to those dealing with infertility. I'm really happy that I got the opportunity to listen to Monique's journey with infertility. I researched the topic before hand but there's nothing like actually hearing the experience from someone who has gone through this battle. Monique explained to me how the diagnosis affected her relationship, how her family reacted to the news, what she had to go through and what she would have to do to have a second child. This was a really inspiring episode and i'm so happy to give Monique a new platform where she can share her story.

Hello everyone and welcome to A Pretty Normal Podcast, a show that re-imagines what society considers normal. Each week I interview different guests about the topics they’re most passionate about. This week I got to finally interview someone who started her podcasting journey right around the same time as this podcast. Thanks to mutual podcast connections I’ve had the chance to watch her grow her podcast and give a platform to some amazing women and men who give wonderful advice and speak about career changes. Her name is Morgane Roos-Carreira and she is the host of Way of Living Podcast. We had a great conversation about a variety of topics including why she moved from France to London, child care, the concept of "homosexualizing kids," what she has learned from her guests and more. I want to also thank her for being so open with me and speaking about her past toxic relationship. Its not an easy thing to speak about but I'm glad I got to know more about her past and how its lead her to where she is today.
