About this episode

At any point during Mackenzie's journey, she could have said "screw this". A lot of us would have, to be honest. This is part 1 of a very complicated journey to pregnancy. It involves Lyme disease, vaccine injury, norovirus, a parasite, COVID, irregular and non-existent periods, lots of doctors, IVF, a death in the family, a wedding and MORE...and yet, she stuck through it. And now she's 36 weeks pregnant as of this episode's release date. Joining us again (because she's Mackenzie's acupuncturist too) is Alex Leddy, who was part of Mackenzie's health care team––a big part. You might be thinking...it's already a longer episode and there are TWO? Yes. It's worth it though. There are so many of us out there who wonder if we should just quit. And Mackenzie's story is the perfect example of why you might want to stick it out and try another thing. And then maybe another.
