An Unconventional Path to Parenthood with Brent Landrum

  • サマリー

  • In a world where societal norms often dictate the "right" way to build a family, it's refreshing to hear stories that challenge these conventions.

    In this episode, we delve into the journey of surrogacy through the eyes of Brent Landrum, who along with his husband, navigated the complex and emotional process of surrogacy to create their family.

    From those first honest conversations with his husband to choosing an egg donor and surrogate, Brent opens up about it all with incredible authenticity. His story shows just how powerful it can be to live life on your own terms, no matter what society thinks.

    Here’s what we cover:

    • Brent shares the ups, downs, and unexpected challenges of surrogacy.
    • The logistics of selecting an egg donor and the decision-making process involved.
    • Financial aspects of surrogacy, including costs and potential financing options.
    • Societal perceptions and stigma surrounding surrogacy, especially for same-sex couples.
    • Encouragement for open dialogue about surrogacy and parenting in non-traditional family dynamics.
    • Brent’s practical advice for anyone considering surrogacy.

    This episode isn’t just about Brent’s story—it’s about showing that there’s no “right” way to build a family. It's about owning your journey and creating something beautiful, no matter how unconventional.
