Description

Before you move ahead with your donor conception process, I'd like you to consider the things that I discuss in this solo episode.  I rarely create solo episodes, but when I do, you should know that they are particularly important.  You may think, “I have heard it all”, and maybe you have, but maybe you haven’t, so why not just take a few minutes to listen to my latest podcast and consider some of the issues that I discuss.
If you are in love with your donor, or you feel very fragile right now, you may want to ignore this episode, or bookmark it for another time.
 
For some people, my question may feel challenging and upsetting, but I've recorded this solo episode because the issues that I discuss need to be considered.  Since my goal is to make your journey easier, I created this episode to shed some light on a common phenomenon that you may not even know you are struggling with.  
 
In this episode, I will explain: 
-why you may reflexively choose qualities in your donor over which you have little control 
-which qualities you have some control over 
-how to order your priorities in your donor selection process 
I review this in detail in my Donor Conception Masterclass
https://familybuilding.net/donor-conception-masterclass/
and LGBTQIA+ Donor Conception Masterclass
https://familybuilding.net/new/lgbtqia-donor-conception-masterclass/
and in my new book https://a.co/d/eAWe35c
You can get a short synopsis here and gain an understanding why, so often, when choosing a donor, your body will fight reality.  
I hope it helps. And feel free to reach out anytime! Xo
