Infertility and Adoption are a journey many families take. Episode 04 of Poised & Powerful Podcast is sharing Gina’s journey of infertility and adoption!

Gina Totten, LMT has been a massage therapist, running her own practice for 15 years. She and her husband became parents to their dream baby through adoption in November 2019 after trying for 12 years to start their family in one way or another.

In this episode of Poised & Powerful Podcast, my guest and I discuss the following:

  • Navigating the process of infertility 

  • The years it took to be approved for adoption and how that worked for Gina and her husband

  • Being a new mom to her adopted daughter, Elizabeth, and how she navigated the baby and toddler phases

  • Fears and excitement going through becoming a new mom and what it was like going through the fertility journey with her husband

Remember, be honest with yourself and listen to your inner voice!
