I suffered from rheumatoid arthritis growing up, and while I thought I handled that quite well, when the doctors told me I couldn’t have biological children it all became too much. I felt completely alone in this experience and suppressed my feelings to the point where it broke my self-worth.

Hear how I was eventually able to separate my illness from my own self-worth and value. Learn how I finally started opening up and how I refused to let my RA and fertility issues remain a hindrance on my life.
