Summary
If you’ve ever had the quiet thought — “Could I become a solo mum by choice?” — this episode is a must-listen. In this powerful and deeply informative conversation, I sit down with Dr Daniel Lansberg , Fertility Specialist at Melbourne IVF and one of the leading experts in fertility care (and known from the TV series Big Miracles ). Together, we walk through the entire journey of becoming a Solo Mum by Choice — from the very first “what if?” all the way to what the path can look like in practice. Dr Lansberg breaks down every step with clarity and compassion, covering: What to do if you’re just starting to think about solo motherhood How to understand your fertility picture The full medical process from first appointment → donor selection → treatment Egg freezing — when to consider it, who it’s right for, and what to expect Common fears and emotional hurdles women experience Unexpected things that can come up along the way Costs, timelines, preparation, and lifestyle factors How to make an informed, empowered decision about your next chapter Whether you’re actively planning, quietly curious, or supporting someone on this path, this episode will leave you feeling informed, grounded, and less alone in the process.
