This week we continue our talk with Colleen Geyer, who is very open about her difficult road to motherhood. In our last show, she spoke about all the fertility treatments she endured and in this episode she shares more of her journey to adoption.
We pick up with Colleen telling about how delighted she and her husband were to hear they were chosen by a birth mother who was pregnant with twins. Even though this was not the happy ending they were hoping for, Colleen credits this episode as one of many that have made her a stronger person.
Colleen is very inspirational and very upbeat despite her tough journey. She received a lot of support from her family, friends and church prayer groups, which she highly credits with helping her survive this tumultuous road. She also speaks very eloquently about how infertility is the “silent disease,” because once people know you are having problems, they tend to keep quiet about their own children or are hesitant to announce their own pregnancies.
Join us and find strength in Colleen’s words and experiences.
In our 32nd episode we meet Colleen, who shares her very turbulent journey to adoption. As a young, married 20-something woman, she and her husband just assumed that they would be able to get pregnant when they wanted. Many women this age have those same thoughts and never consider that they might find themselves on a tough path facing infertility issues.
In Part 1 of her interview, Colleen shares how she went through test after test, both IUI and IVF treatments, and finally found themselves considering adoption after 9 years of marriage. Join us and listen to Colleen share the details of her journey, the circumstances of a failed adoption, and be inspired by Barbara’s encouraging words and belief that your baby will find you, no matter what path to motherhood you may follow.
This week Barbara welcomes in the New Year with some inspiring stories of mothers whose dreams of having a child have come true.
You will hear an update about Addison, whose adopted daughter was born just before Christmas and you will marvel at the most unique and heartwarming Christmas celebration they had at their house.
Another of our prayer chain women also has an announcement to share so tune in to find out more details.
It’s fabulous to hear of a miracle as it’s actually ‘happening’, especially when it’s happening to one of our listeners whom we’ve been praying for! The baby will be here December 20th! (what a Christmas gift!) But the route in which this baby has come into Addison’s life, is one that isn’t traveled often.
It reminds us that we never know from where, nor from WHOM, our baby is coming. And this story will also remind us that miracles DO happen! Addison wasn’t going to have a Christmas tree nor a Christmas dinner, no celebration, nothing. NOW she is preparing for the Christmas of her life!
On this show we delve into Part 2 of Tracy Jo Devereaux’s magnificent story. I hope you had a chance to check out Part 1, and I hope you’ve also looked at her website. If not, go to our Archives Page and take a moment to listen to the last show, and be sure to go to www.MaceyD.com. As Tracy Jo shares with us today, you will hear about her life transforming, as she finds herself pregnant with quads. She had been hoping that the quads would be home for Thanksgiving. Unfortunately that wasn’t the case; however, they ARE doing great! And that, of course, is the important thing. Check out her website to see these beautiful babies in their Thanksgiving garb, and their sweet big sister, Macey, who was the first miracle to enter Tracy Jo’s life.
Also covered in her story, are the inevitable changes that infertility inflicts upon one’s marriage, the internal conflicts that Tracy Jo’s husband has been facing, the issue of selective reduction and myriad other aspects of this life surreal. When I personally am having a day that is making me feel weathered and worn, I now think of Tracy Jo. Thoughts of her and what she has had to face, put everything back into perspective for me. And at that moment, I say a little prayer for her and her family, and I always find myself then smiling.
On this, our 28th show of Journeys To Motherhood, we have with us a guest that I consider to be a Super Woman in every sense of the word. Tracy Jo Devereaux was kind enough to sit down and take her story, step by amazing step, and re-live even the most difficult moments.
On this, our 27th show of Journeys To Motherhood, we celebrate our one year anniversary! We are also celebrating our uterus and learning more about ‘her’, with the help of our guest, Angel Baney.
Angel is an inspirational soul. After going through reproductive assistance, then losing twins in a domestic act of violence, THEN having a difficult time in conceiving again with her new husband…Angel refuses to take ‘no’ for an answer. As I’ve said before, she will NOT be denied motherhood. So she is taking steps down another path now…the path of adoption. She is the quintessential example of determination.
She is strong, resilient and yet effervescent in her journey and her life. I am blessed to know her, and now YOU will be too. You will find her interesting in the work she does as well. Her spa, Centre Ave. Massage and Spa, located in the Shadyside area of Pittsburgh, is not only welcoming and relaxing, it is also quite beautiful…a work of art in and of itself. She talks today about the details of Arvigo, what it means and what it can do for you. Raise your glass and join us in a toast, as we celebrate our 1st anniversary…AND our uterus!
Happy Realignment to you all!
On this, our 26th show of Journeys To Motherhood, I am thrilled to have with us a woman that is in the midst of HER journey to her baby. Her name is Angel Baney, and she is a woman that I had spoken of in the past on my show and on my blog page…the woman that introduced me to the amazing Arvigo massage technique, which can greatly help with any female issues we may have…including fertility struggles. The experience I had when she had given me the Arvigo massage in her beautiful spa, Centre Ave. Massage and Spa, was one that profoundly effected me…to the point that I NOW incorporate this massage technique into my daily life. Angel taught me how to do that, and she can teach you too.
