From egg freezing and IVF, to breaking perfectionism, to parenting identities, to poop tracking (?), we discuss the hidden realities behind one of the most important decisions in life besides choosing your partner: the decision to become a parent. Tune in for lessons on:✅ Egg freezing, IVF, and fertility timelines✅ Why more women are having children in their 40s than in their teens✅ The emotional and financial realities of raising kids in modern America✅ How to know if someone will actually make a good parent✅ Debunking pregnancy fears and the pressure to “do motherhood correctly”✅ The hidden joy, meaning, and identity shifts that come with raising children✅ Why “good enough” parenting may actually be healthier than perfect parentingThis episode is chaotic, hilarious, surprisingly emotional, and packed with the kind of conversations women are often having privately… but rarely publicly.Follow Natasha: @natashaleggeroFollow Sabrina: @sabrinajaleesListen to Good Enough PodcastListen to Endless Honeymoon PodcastTimestamps:00:58: The second biggest decision you’ll make in your life01:09: Introducing Natasha and Sabrina 03:20: What goes into the decision to have kids?06:28: Freezing your eggs 08:28: Jean’s story about freezing her eggs 11:28: Sabrina’s vision for her family 13:57: Stats on U.S. fertility rates 14:51: Should you have kids?
