  Speaker 1: So in case you worried.

• 0:34
  Speaker 4: her IVF journey, because she's had a very public career

  Speaker 4: low profile when it comes to her private life. So

  Speaker 4: this is kind of the first time we're hearing about
• 0:45
  Speaker 4: her struggle to have children and her journey with IVF.
• 0:48
  Speaker 4: So basically, here she's going to talk about how she
• 0:50
  Speaker 4: eventually just came to terms after trying and trying that
• 0:54
  Speaker 4: being a mother was just not going to be on
• 0:56
  Speaker 4: the cards for it.
• 0:56
  Speaker 5: I was thirty six when I got my diagnosis, so
• 0:59
  Speaker 5: already you need to be thinking about children. So I
• 1:03
  Speaker 5: did try, even postphones, went chemo therapy to try. But yeah,
• 1:07
  Speaker 5: I did try a few times with IVF, always with such.
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: A thread of hope.
• 1:13
  Speaker 5: If it happened, it would have been just a miracle.
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: You famously tried IVF many times, right.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: It is heartbreaking.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: I remember talking about Jennifer Aniston on here too and
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: how she had to come like make peace with it,
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: and I remember reading this bit out like a celebrity
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: gospel like you nat, And I don't know where it
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: came from, but I just broke down because jen just
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: said I had to let that ship sail and I
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: had to make peace with it. And it's actually very confronting.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: But then, you know, I feel like I'm a mother
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: to many you know.
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: Have you made peace with How do you?
• 1:48
  Speaker 6: How did you do that?
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: You kind of just have to accept it because there's
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: nothing you know you can do about it.
• 1:55
  Speaker 5: It's hard.
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: I haven't tried to have children yet, but I can
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: speak from being a woman. You feel as if it's
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: part of your duty as a woman to have children.
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: So did you feel the anchor when you weren't able
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: to like a little bit of a failure because you
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: couldn't do something that society told you.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: You meant to get married, you meant to have kids,
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: you know, and I do.
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: I did have fomo like watching my friends with their
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: kids and thinking, oh, I'm never going to sort of
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: get to experience that.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: But I don't know. It's something that it was heartbreaking.
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: And it's also when people would like really pity me,
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: Like on Mother's Day, I get text, Oh, that's I
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: don't do that, I know, and it's like, so you've.
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: Got a mum, you just can be with your mom. Sorry,
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: you're not celebrating Mother's Day.
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: I get like, I know this is a painful day
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: for you. It comes from the right place, but I
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: was I hate it when people sort of look at
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: me like poor you didn't have kids, and I'm like.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: That's why I can have a two ceded card with
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: the roof off.
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: Did you ever consider, because obviously you couldn't have kids naturally,
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: did you ever consider adoption and all those other routes
• 2:56
  Speaker 4: as well?
• 2:57
  Speaker 5: I did.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: Actually, I became an ambassador for deboref for neess Is.
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: And get what it was, but I have forgot what
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: I was.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: I know that's about brain, so google it. It's it's
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: about a good one.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: It's not change and it's about changing the laws here
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: because it's really hard to adopt.
• 3:20
  Speaker 6: You know, tell me about it as well, well gay, but.
• 3:23
  Speaker 5: It's just.
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: Well, well, but yeah, it's just it's.
• 3:31
  Speaker 6: Not a it's not easy in any way, and it's
• 3:34
  Speaker 6: expensive and there's so much to go through, which it
• 3:38
  Speaker 6: has to be. I get that it has to be
• 3:40
  Speaker 6: because you don't want to be having kids going to anyone, but.
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: Hold on, but that's the point, the vetting and the
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: red tape that you would have to go through. So me,
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: at fifty, I'd be looked down on because I'm too
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: old to be a mother. The hell can go and
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: spit out a kid any time and have all sorts
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: of going on at home and that's okay your life.
• 4:02
  Speaker 6: That's what my I almost have to deal with that
• 4:05
  Speaker 6: acceptance because it is like that they're not just going
• 4:08
  Speaker 6: to hand out kids to anyone for adoption. But if
• 4:11
  Speaker 6: you're if you haven't, naturally anyone can have a kid.
• 4:15

• 4:17
  Speaker 2: amazing parents.
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: It doesn't know that.
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: It doesn't Work's my heart, because you do you know
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: what I mean that there are kids out there that
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: would love to have you.
• 4:30

• 4:32
  Speaker 3: called in, but he hasn't taken her up on the office.
• 4:34
