2022 Workshop
Beyond Just The Baby:
Understanding the Biological, Economical and Social-Emotional Elements of Infertility
What is it about?
When we talk about infertility the primary focus of conversation is typically getting pregnant or having a baby. But what about beyond the baby? What about the hidden elements of infertility? What about the ways that navigating infertility can become part of someone’s identity? What about the time, money, energy, stress, relationships and more that is impacted through infertility? These questions and more are the focus of this workshop.
bebo mia and Regina Townsend, of The Broken Brown Egg have created this workshop to deep dive into the incredibly complex and nuanced experience of people going through infertility. We are talking about so much more than just a baby. The impacts of infertility reach into every facet of a person’s life and we want to dissect the areas that can oftentimes be overlooked:
The Biological Impact. The Economical Impact. The Social-Emotional Impact. And more.
Join us for this one of a kind workshop in understanding the multiple areas that infertility impacts people’s lives.
