With this month being Women's History Month, there are a lot of conversations being had about the plight and the power of women. Yet, there is one conversation that continues to be discussed in hushed tones, infertility.

​When the COVID Virus began to plague the world, I knew that the experiences of the black population would be profoundly different, especially for black women.  We were informed about symptoms, statistical data, job loss, educational impact, and social distancing; but the grief of COVID wasn’t something the was emphasized enough.

​I turned 38 earlier this year. One of my birthday wishes was to start a family and locate a great love. I knew one thing-I was ready to start my family—So I thought. I felt I “needed” to find my partner and “be happy”. I would soon find out that I was missing one huge piece-SELF LOVE.
