S2E17: Loving Your Neighbor Through Infertility and Adoption

Let's talk about infertility and adoption. Chances are you or
someone you know has walked one or both of these paths. Today’s
guest Cat Vandament shares her story of infertility and
treatments that led to the birth of her daughter, and then the
decision to pursue adoption with their son. Cat’s story is unique
in that during fertility treatments, they faced the additional
stress and unfortunate timing of her husband’s numerous military
deployments. 


 


Infertility and adoption can be sensitive and hard topics for
many. Which is why it’s important to have the conversation and
gratefully Cat is willing to help us talk about the emotional
journey. No two stories are alike, but as you listen to the
conversation you'll hear hope and encouragement. 


 


Cat speaks with honesty and vulnerability. She shares the
struggle of not knowing why her body “wasn’t working the way
every other woman’s body works” and how she overcame untrue
thoughts like “trying to figure out what I had done wrong.” 


 


Cat’s story is told through the lens of infertility and adoption.
But, it’s also a story of faith and helps us see how we all
wrestle with our own worth at times. 


 


Listen in to learn what NOT to say to a friend or neighbor who is
trying to get pregnant. And, stay tuned as Cat reveals the number
one way you can love your neighbor through infertility and
adoption.
