Hear all about what surprised her about owning a small business, how she unwinds in her little red convertible bug (!!!), the people who cheered her along the way and her most unusual flavor of peanut butter!
In Episode Two, I chat with Fairport resident, Christina Bancroft. She and her husband struggled with infertility for eight years before undergoing a frozen embryo transfer using donor eggs. Hear all about their journey from fertility treatments arriving at their doorstep, to what kept them strong and sane during those years, and how they eventually ended up at a clinic in Washington State.

*My voice is slightly quiet in this podcast, but you can hear Christina loud and clear - which is great because she has one amazing story!
