Andrea Syrtash is the Founder and Editor in Chief of Pregnantish.Pregnantish went live in 2017, and Andrea describes it as “the state you're in when trying to conceive,” which the pair go on to discuss.What Was Discussed:Andrea's diagnosis of Endometriosis at 14 years old and how she was put on the pill and could go to school and function, having been really sufferingAndrea discusses the 18 treatments she had: IUIs, egg retrievals over many yearsHow she got pregnant from IUI and why she continued down that route—despite that pregnancy not continuing—as they had access to unlimited IUI and 3 rounds of IVFHow in Year 5 a Canadian doctor told her: “It should have worked by now.

Nearly half of U.S. adults say dating is harder now than a decade ago. Add in a global pandemic and some may say it's virtually impossible. I recently chatted with a woman who disagrees and says it's VIRTUALLY possible. A 2019 Stanford University Study finds 65% of gay couples and 39% of straight couples met online three years ago. Which means all these dating apps and sites can work. But, what does it mean during COVID-19? Should singles slow down from all the left or right swiping, or is LOVE, UNINTERRUPTED and DATING DURING THE PANDEMIC IS POSSIBLE? Andrea Syrtash is my favorite go-to dating and relationship expert. She's a published author with such works as Cheat On Your Husband (with Your Husband): How to Date Your Spouse, He's Just Not Your Type (and that's a good thing): How to Find Love Where You Least Expect it, and It's Okay to Sleep with Him on the First Date: And Every Other Rule of Dating, Debunked. You've also seen her on GMA, the Today Show, Wendy Williams, and The View. Let's just say… she has some street cred. We discuss how video has transformed the dating landscape, opening the door to better communication and representation. Andrea says the biggest gripe from singles is how some people don't look or sound the way the present themselves. Gone are those days! Andrea provides fun virtual and socially-distant dating ideas. She also tackles the question of physical contact, including kissing and other forms of intimacy. She calls the pandemic the great equalizer, as we've all been forced to make adjustments—including those in the dating pool.  If I've learned anything from Andrea, it's that slowing down, asking questions and learning about another person is a great way to build a solid relationship foundation based on value structure. Now's the time to showcase your creativity with virtual cooking dates, adventurous socially-distant outdoor dates and smart/informed indoor dates. Love can be uninterrupted, and dating during the pandemic is possible. 

In this bonus episode, Savannah gives some life updates on how things are going as well as what she has learned from He's Just Not Your Type (and That's a Good Thing): How to Find Love Where You Least Expect It by Andrea Syrtash. She also explains what the solar eclipse in Sagittarius means for us (hint hint: we're doomed) (jk). Yay For Growth is now on IG as well!

In honor of this year’s National Infertility Awareness Week (4/19 – 4/25), we’re doing a five-part series that highlights Resolve’s theme of ‘Changing the Conversation’. Over the past two years we’ve had conversations with people still experiencing infertility, people who have reached their end goals, people who’ve dedicated their lives to helping others, and people who are just entering this ever-expanding world of infertility.   We’re focusing these episodes on change, how our guests have changed since we last visited them, how their priorities have changed, and how their situation has changed. We hope by doing so we can do our small part to help change the conversation and enhance public understanding that infertility needs attention and to ensure others they aren’t alone in this journey.   In today’s episode, we get an update from Andrea Syrtash, founder of Pregnantish and guest from season one, to hear about what has changed in her life since she started to explore surrogacy. We’ll also hear about how she’s using her platform to build an infertility community, how she handled (spoiler alert) her pregnancy announcement, and what’s next for Pregnantish.  Guest: Andrea Syrtash, Founder & Editor-in-chief of Pregnantish  Host: Dan Bulger, Producer at Progyny  Be sure to check out Andrea’s previous episode – Season 1, Episode 10 and to read the story in People mentioned in this episode, see here.   For more information visit Progyny’s Podcast page, Pregnantish, and Progyny’s Education page for more resources on emotional support and awareness.    Be sure to follow us on Instagram, @ThisisInfertilityPodcast and use the #ThisisInfertility.     Have a question, comment, or want to share your story?

Fertility is a topic that comes up frequently for anyone who works with women. Infertility is a problem that many people face, and it affects men as well as women. Many people you see every day are going through struggles to build their family, although they wear a mask that makes everything seem OK. Today’s guest calls infertility “the silent epidemic,” and the numbers of people affected are simply astounding.   Andrea Syrtash is a relationship expert, journalist, and the founder of Pregnantish, the first media site devoted exclusively to helping singles, couples, and LGBTQ humans navigate fertility treatments and infertility. She’s been featured on Oprah’s OWN Network, FOX, and other TV outlets, and she’s written books titled He’s Just Not Your Type (And That’s a Good Thing), It’s OK to Sleep with Him on the First Date, and Cheat on Your Husband . . . with Your Husband. Because of Andrea’s long, tough journey, she is committed to breaking the taboo of infertility and elevating the conversation about what it takes to start a family for millions of people today. Her work is both interesting and controversial. She’s here to share her story of 18 fertility treatments for eight years, and how she finally met her baby through a surrogate. There are a lot of misconceptions and stigma around types of fertility treatments and infertility. Because this affects so many women, I wanted us to have a deep and meaningful conversation about infertility, the options, and how we can better support friends and family members. We’ll discuss how Andrea kept up her creative, on-air personality while undergoing an intense physical and emotional process behind the scenes. We’ll also discuss the judgments and unwelcome advice that people encounter as they go through infertility, along with the legal ramifications that make things even more difficult.  You can read the full show notes at www.alexandrajamieson.com/240

Living with infertility is hard physically, emotionally, spiritually and financially. We talk about this experience with Andrea Syrtash. She struggled with infertility for over 10 years and recently became a mom through surrogacy. She is a relationship expert and coach and TV personality and the founder of Pregnantish, an online lifestyle magazine dedicated to helping singles, couples and LGBT navigate infertility.Support the show (https://creatingafamily.org/donation/)

There's no one way to be pregnant- just ask Andrea Syrtash. After nearly two dozen fertility treatments, a handful of surrogates and almost a decade of trying to get and stay pregnant, Andrea is now a proud mother.

Fertility issues, and infertility itself, are going to be incredibly important to our collective future. Because of that, we thought it important to sit down with Andrea Syrtash. She’s the founder and editor-in-chief of pregnantish, the first media site exclusively dedicated to helping singles, couples & LGBT navigate fertility treatments and infertility. Andrea’s work (she’s a five-time author) is regularly featured on national TV shows including Good Morning America and The Today Show, and in Cosmopolitan, Glamour, and Women's Health magazines. And her upcoming pregnantish podcast debuts soon, so be sure to subscribe on Apple Podcasts or Stitcher.This week we cover:How fertility is arguably undergoing cooler innovation than any other industryWhy infertility and fertility treatments are going to become more important in the futureThe stigma associated with fertility issues such as miscarriages - and whether or not those stigmas are going awayHow the companies of tomorrow need to be thinking about fertility issues in order to stay relevant - both as marketers and as employersWhat type of impact can fertility have on a country’s future - taking the example of Japan, which is experiencing its sharpest drop in births in 30s years

“We always hear first comes love, then comes marriage, then comes the baby carriage. That is not necessarily true anymore for millions of people. We're skipping steps.”  - Episode 20 (24:33 - 24:43)Tasha Blasi The FU Project Podcast The real topics mainstream media neglects to cover on fertility issues.  This was the topic for my latest episode of the FU Project podcast. You can listen here. The ultrasound image on your friend's social media feed hits you like a sucker punch as you sink into the couch from another unsuccessful round of IUI. It's another “whoops I'm pregnant!” announcement, the third in the last five weeks (not that you're counting).  Are you the only one physically struggling, financially hurting, emotionally worrying, and medically fighting to become a mother? No! You're not.  Mainstream media has failed to raise public awareness on what it really takes to become pregnant. In fact, they have neglected to openly discuss fertility issues at all! Andrea Syrtash is on a mission to break that taboo. The Relationship Expert and Creator of “Pregnantish” has created the first media website for those navigating through fertility issues and treatments. You, along with every single, couple and LGBTQ, are invited to join in the conversation! “There were enough of us, my friends and family, who had gone through infertility. People needed a lifestyle site exclusively dedicated to this topic.” - Episode 20 (14:07 - 14:18) After the removal of a massive fibroid tumor in 2012, Andrea had no idea it would be almost a decade before she became a mother. It wasn't until 18 fertility treatments, 2 drop-out surrogates, and 1 volunteer surrogate (Andrea's cousin) later that her healthy baby girl, Arielle, arrived. During that time, Andrea was struggling to find any online publications beyond medical advice that offered personal support for those dealing with fertility issues. It was out of this frustration for well-balanced material that the concept of “Pregnantish” was born.  Andrea wanted to read real stories from real people with real fertility issues. Now, you can!  Here are some of the helpful topics Andrea has elevated into conversations. The Non-Linear Path of Fertility. The stories you read about celebrities who get pregnant after one round of IVF are what we call extremely lucky cases. Most women experience many twists and turn on their journey towards motherhood. Expect the unexpected. Some moments will be magical, others heartbreaking, but all eye-opening. Buckle up! Stay open to all the options available to you. New Perspectives. Fertility issues can define and punctuate your life. However, it is possible for you to resist being completely consumed and maintain your sanity. Ask yourself what is working well in the midst of this terrible situation? Try to take inventory of all the good in the midst of your pain. Andrea found the mantra, “I'm sad and I'll be okay,” to be extremely helpful as she worked to find new perspectives in her own journey. Messy Break-Downs. Admit it. Fertility issues suck! They break hearts, challenge relationships, and push couples to their physical, emotional, and financial limits. You don't have to wear a brave face all the time. In fact, it's totally okay for you to have a good old-fashioned break-down. That's right. You can cry it all out because this journey is hard. The Gift from All of This. We know it's hard to believe right now. But your perfect baby will come. When they do, you will never take for granted being a parent. That doesn't mean you're not allowed to pull your hair out and complain every now and then! It just means the significance of the gift of parenthood is cherished even more so because of your incredibly hard journey.  “You don't need to know the where, the how, the who, or the when. You just need to know the what, which is “I WILL be a parent.”  - Episode 20 (45:45 - 45:56) Life is not a straight line. Nor should you expect your fertility journey to be. There are so many small details and nuances that go into becoming pregnant. However, there is only one thing you should really know at this point. Do you want to be a mother?  Then you will. Trust that everything else will fall into place. When you feel discouraged, uncertain, or confused connect with the community of others on “Pregnantish” for support. You don't have to quietly deal with all of this alone. We are all here for you.

Lets. Get. Intimate. This week we are talking all things Sex & Relationships, and more specifically, why sexy time begins to diminish with your significant other.
