Hi, I'm Alex L and I write books for a living.

The Hey Girl Podcast was created with sisterhood and storytelling in mind.

Hey girl, hey girl, hey girl, hey girl, hey girl,

hey girl, I'll be sitting down with some phenomenal women to discuss love.

I believe we grew distant out of love of some type like I don't want to hurt you.

Loss. Really don't know what's going to trigger that feeling

of grief in any moment and a topic very important to my work self-care.

I'm holding on to this self-care with every ounce of me.

Join us as we journey through sharing together. This week's guest is Gabrielle.

So I've never met Gabrielle in person,

but I have seen her beautiful family on YouTube.

When I found out that Gabrielle and her husband were struggling with the same

infertility issues my husband and I were struggling with, which happened to be male factor,

I was floored because it's rare that other women are sharing their stories around fertility.

Right. So one thing that Gabe and I talk about in this episode is setting boundaries within the internet space. How much is enough? is

I want enough, for our viewers to understand, but also, you know,

but also, you don't have to see every single thing.

So while, yes, it is very important to have boundaries

and balance it's also extremely powerful when people share their stories.

We didn't have to tell that we had IVF but it was important for us to be authentic and talk about it because it was a huge

journey for us.

I was so happy that she agreed to be on the show and talk about her fertility journey with me.
