Listen in as expat and small business owner, Eleanor Mayrhofer shares her experience of becoming a first- and only-time mom at age 44 and the emotional journey of ambivalence, decision-making, and fertility treatments that preceded motherhood. You'll hear her and Keltie discuss:
- The importance of understanding the practicalities and challenges of pursuing parenthood.
- Why fertility treatments are a roller coaster of hope and disappointment, and the importance of considering its emotional, financial, and logistical implications.
- How our life decisions impact our choices and Kids or Childfree path.
- How ambivalence and flip-flopping between choices can still exist, even once you decide to have a child.
- Managing business and motherhood, as well as the challenges and benefits of raising a child in a foreign country.
- The joy of finally having a child and advice for others considering fertility treatments.
- Why the decision to become a parent is a deeply personal and emotional one and may not always have a rational explanation.
