Soldiering Through Infertility in the Military w/ Kim Colby
The Springs in the Desert Podcast: Catholic Accompaniment Through Infertility
In this episode, we welcome Springs in the Desert contributor Kim Colby to the podcast along with returning guest Natalie Blackford. Each of these women has experienced infertility while being a member of the military community - Kim and her husband both served on active duty and Natalie's husband currently serves. We talk about the culture of family life in the armed forces as well as the challenges that come with deployments and temporary duty travel (TDY) that form a part of military life. Listen in for advice on how to approach long periods of separation from your spouse and ideas for how to be fruitful in the waiting!

About Podcast
At Springs, we know that infertility is a heavy cross. But as Catholics, we believe that by keeping our focus on Christ, we can come through this season of waiting stronger in faith and love—no matter what happens. So each week, we’ll bring you a conversation that gets to the heart of the infertility experience – including primary/secondary infertility, miscarriage/loss, childlessness, and more.
