EP 1: HELD TOGETHER: The healing power of shared stories with Dr. Rebecca N. Thompson

41min | 04/02/2025

Description

In our FIRST episode, I am joined by fellow physician-writer, Rebecca N. Thompson, MD, who has JUST published a beautiful new book entitled, HELD TOGETHER.

This delicately shared memoir offers comfort and hope to those of us who've experienced loss or traveled a long road to parenthood.

Dr. Thompson is an exquisite story-teller - so do yourself a favor and grab a copy of HELD TOGETHER: A SHARED MEMOIR OF MOTHERHOOD, MEDICINE, AND IMPERFECT LOVE at your local Indie bookstore - or you can find it wherever books are sold.

April holds space for National Infertility Awareness Week (April 20-26, 2025) and this conversation offers some peace and glimmers to those who have been through, are going through, or know someone who is going through their own infertility experience. #ALLinFertility #prescribingpossibility
