S6E4 - The Fertility Game

One of the modern social norms that we all voluntarily practice in our 20s or 30s, compared to a century ago, is the postponement of childbearing.

This is usually because we delay marriage, or pursue educational or career goals, or wish to first secure some economic stability.

Because of this, the common thing we are often taught or seek out to be aware of is knowing how to protect against pregnancy during our pursuit of these other goals.

But during this phase, rarely do we ponder on the state of our fertility or reproductive health. And maybe that’s normal.

However, should that be the case 🤔?

Improving one's knowledge about fertility should be part of a normal conversation in our social circles, the same way we talk about our career, finances, travel and everything else.

This is why we put this episode together with Ojuolape, and we had lots of fun and lessons doing so.

We spoke about the stigma around the early fertility conversation, the rising infertility rates in the world, the social pressure of pregnancy expectations, abortions and a lot more!!!

Enjoy the listen!
