생명의 다리| A Guide to Your Sùúrùgate Journey - The One with The Sùúrùgate Team | Episode 16 (2025)

The More Sibyl Podcast:

I have one goal this month: demystifying surrogacy. In this episode, I’m joined by three amazing people—Olubusolami Jeremiah-Yusuf, Chidinma Ewo-Mebradu, and my husband, Taiwo—to help me do just that.

Together, we bring the dual perspectives of medical professionals and commissioning parents. We explore what it means to pursue surrogacy ethically, the emotional realities intended parents must be ready for, and the importance of building a strong, informed support system. Busolami and Chidinma offer invaluable professional insights and practical guidance on navigating surrogacy responsibly and compassionately.

One of the key themes we highlight is the need to treat surrogates with dignity and fairness. From education and legal protections to emotional support and ethical practices, we discuss what it takes to ensure a positive and humane surrogacy experience.

Taiwo shares his reflections on the role of honest communication between partners, while I open up about my own journey as a commissioning mom—what it meant to prepare for a child I wasn’t carrying, how I coped with anxiety and grief from previous losses, and the deep faith and trust required every step of the way.

This episode is both a personal reflection and a practical guide for anyone considering or navigating surrogacy. We talk about everything from preparing for parenthood and supporting surrogates to managing logistics and navigating family dynamics.
