97. Balancing Infertility and Motherhood in a STEM Profession with Priya Santhanam

In this episode we talk with Priya Santhanam about her journey of struggling with infertility and becoming a mother through IVF while also pursuing a career in STEM. She discussing what it was like to go through multiple miscarriages, beginning IVF, and navigating motherhood all while still advancing in her career as an engineer/scientist.

Priya is on a mission to collect 100 stories from women who have shared a similar experience as her. She hopes to showcase that we are not alone in our journeys and when we share our stories we can help others feel more supported and heard. Help eliminate the shame and bias around infertility and motherhood in the STEM profession by helping this reach those who may be in a similar situation.
