Communicating with Our Spouses, Family and Friends through Infertility (Facebook Live)
The Springs in the Desert Podcast: Catholic Accompaniment Through Infertility
Infertility often brings a particular kind of suffering that feels isolating and may negatively impact relationships. In our first episode of the Springs in the Desert Podcast, we address the unique challenges that infertility presents for productive communication with our spouse, family and friends, and others. During a live event, members of the Springs in the Desert Team respond to questions and share personal experiences of learning to better communicate while carrying the burden of infertility in our marriages. We also offer ideas for addressing intrusive questions and discuss communicating our pastoral needs within our church communities. Resources from this episode: Why Does God Let Bad Things Happen?

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.
