Or in some cases, to not have a baby. Each episode tells a different story about family building, getting real about miscarriages, egg freezing, sperm and egg donation, IUIs, endometriosis, male factor infertility, adoption, surrogacy, genetic testing, single parenting by choice, LGBTQ+ fertility, living childless not by choice, depression, relationship issues, money issues, jealousy, PTSD, and so much more. Ali covers all of the outcomes in this safe, non-judgement zone: the happy endings, the soul-crushingly sad ones, and the ones still in limbo.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-12T18:18:07.711380+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/infertile-af-infertility-and-modern-family-building-through-art-206488"},"episode":{"title":"Listen Again: Today Host Sheinelle Jones on Miscarriage, Infertility, Heartbreak and the Power of Resilience","slug":"listen-again-today-host-sheinelle-jones-on-miscarriage-infertility-heartbreak-and-the-power-of-resilience","published_at":"2026-04-03T16:00:18+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/infertile-af-infertility-and-modern-family-building-through-art-206488/listen-again-today-host-sheinelle-jones-on-miscarriage-infertility-heartbreak-and-the-power-of-resilience","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/infertile-af-infertility-and-modern-family-building-through-art-206488","url":"https://www.infertileafgroup.com/podcast","audio_url":"https://audio1.redcircle.com/episodes/c1d1a691-cb2e-4d50-83ac-c87c091eda53/stream.mp3","summary":"Today, Ali is bringing back a special encore episode with the incredible Sheinelle Jones — an award-winning journalist and co-host of Today with Jenna & Sheinelle .
