Breaking the Silence on Infertility, IVF, and Miscarriage with Ali Prato
About this episode
In this candid conversation, Ali Prato, journalist, author, and host of the Infertile AF podcast, opens up about her deeply personal journey through secondary infertility, including several miscarriages before ultimately welcoming her son through IVF. Feeling isolated and frustrated by the lack of honest dialogue and resources around infertility, Ali transformed her experience into advocacy, launching her podcast to share real stories and build a supportive community for others navigating similar paths. She also discusses the creation of the Fertility Rally, a powerful space designed to connect and uplift people facing infertility.
Ali and Tara explore why open conversations about fertility are so essential to reducing stigma and helping families feel less alone. Ali also shares how her children’s books aim to normalize discussions around assisted reproductive technology and modern family building. The conversation expands into broader modern parenting challenges, from navigating technology and social media to raising kids in an increasingly high-pressure world, while emphasizing the importance of honesty, empathy, and community support when talking with children about their origins and family stories.
If you are experiencing infertility, listen to this episode and remember you are not alone.
