POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Love and Infertility is officially an AWARD-WINNING podcast!! 🥉🎙️❤️

We won BRONZE in the Family & Child Raising category at the 2026 Signal Awards!

Ginny and I are so excited, deeply humbled, and genuinely honored by this recognition.

We started this podcast because we wanted people navigating infertility to have somewhere to turn for honest conversations, practical support, and the reminder that they don’t have to figure everything out alone.

To have that work recognized is something we’re incredibly grateful for.

To our guests: thank you for bringing your stories, expertise, and vulnerability into these conversations.

To Ginni and the team at @ginnimedia: thank you for the care and hard work you put into bringing this podcast to life.

And to our listeners: thank you for listening, sharing episodes, asking thoughtful questions, and trusting us to talk about something so personal. You are the reason we keep doing this.

There are so many stories around infertility that deserve to be heard. We’re honored to help make room for them.

And with Season 2 coming October 28, we have so much more to share.

For today, we’re celebrating—and saying a very heartfelt THANK YOU. ❤️

Y’ALL. CASEY MCQUISTON CAME TO SHELF CARE SOCIETY!!! ❤️🤍💙

@casey.mcquiston is SUCH a fabulous conversation partner, and I cannot wait for you to hear this one!

“Red, White & Royal Blue: The Private Correspondence” (available December 1, 2026 wherever books are sold) gives us SO much about Alex and Henry’s lives after we last saw them in the original novel. Told through letters, postcards, and personal correspondence spanning about two decades, we get a glimpse of what happens AFTER happily ever after. And y’all, there is a LOT to unpack. 👑

We talked about love, marriage, family, Texas politics, and what it means to grow alongside someone while the world around you keeps changing. We also explored why Alex and Henry have become such beloved characters and what it means to revisit their story years later.

PLUS, Casey is a screenwriter for the upcoming Prime Video sequel, “Red, White & Royal Wedding,” and I am counting down the days until we get a trailer. The queer internet is simply not prepared. 🥹

And YES, Casey walked into the studio wearing a Florence + the Machine T-shirt. I knew immediately that the queer gods had aligned. Some things are simply written in the stars. 🪩✨

AND THIS EPISODE IS SPOILER-FREE! All are welcomed here!

🎙️ Our conversation drops Thursday, October 29, at 12 PM ET on SHELF CARE SOCIETY, wherever you listen to or watch podcasts!

Huge thanks to Casey for such a thoughtful, funny, wonderfully queer conversation and to the incredible team at @ginnimedia for making it feel like home! @stmartinspress is giving holiday cheer this holiday season—and this book makes the perfect gift (pre-order at your local indie bookstore and you’ll automatically get a spot on the Nice List 📚🥹).

Season 2 of Love and Infertility is coming October 28—and Ginny and I cannot wait! 🎙️❤️

This season, we’re putting a bigger spotlight on advocacy: speaking up for better care, making sure overlooked experiences are heard, and asking how we can better support people navigating infertility.

We have some incredible guests joining us, including Danielle Melfi, CEO of RESOLVE, Lana Manikowski, and more people whose work and stories we’re so excited to share.

And we’re keeping something important at the heart of every conversation: practical support for couples.

How do you talk when you’re seeing things differently? Support each other without immediately trying to fix the pain? Make difficult decisions while remembering you’re on the same team?

We want these conversations to connect the bigger picture of advocacy with the everyday reality of being in a relationship during infertility.

Our hope is that you finish an episode feeling less alone—and with something you can actually bring into a conversation with your partner.

We’ve loved making this season, and we’re so grateful we get to share it with you.

October 28. Follow Love and Infertility and join us for Season 2!

Each letter shares something someone is going through, and Avery turns those real-life stories into songs. It’s a powerful reminder that when we share what we’re carrying, we can help each other feel less alone. 💚

My first studio had a duvet for soundproofing and a seven-year-old for quality control.

@ginnimedia started in my sister’s spare bedroom in Melbourne. I’d finish a night shift at an aerospace company, come home, and edit podcasts until morning. It made me an expert in coffee timing and very little else.

My first co-host was my niece. She’d sit beside me at her toy computer, add her own vocals to whatever I was editing, and call mandatory playtime with zero notice. Still the best boss I’ve ever had.

The road from that spare bedroom to New York wasn’t a straight line. Late nights, early starts, a lot of “we’ll figure it out,” and more people than I can count who helped along the way.

Somewhere between a blanket over my head and 35 shows, this stopped being one person’s side hustle. It became a team, and a group of clients who trusted us early and stayed.

Thank you for being part of it. Here’s to what comes next. 🤍

Tomorrow’s episode is one I’m going to be thinking about for a while.

I sat down with my man @thepriteshshah , an actor, writer, director and comedian, and he got REAL with me.

We talked about:
- Letting go of identity and what stillness actually looks like#
- The difference between love and just not wanting to be rejected
- Why “expensive” isn’t only about money, because staying stuck costs you too
- Growing up with dads who always asked “what’s next?” and learning to celebrate the small wins
- His upcoming film I’m the Problem

He told me his dad once asked why he missed 2% on a 98. I had to share how I work to celebrate every little victory with my own kids.

This one’s honest, funny, and a real mirror check.

Meet “Fruit Fly.” 🍑📚

I asked Josh Silver to introduce his new novel in his own words, because there is no better way into a book than hearing the person who created it tell you what you’re about to experience.

Our full conversation about “Fruit Fly,” writing, queerness, desire, friendship, and all the beautifully complicated things in between is live now on SHELF CARE SOCIETY —available wherever you listen to podcasts! 🪰

Special thanks to @ginnimedia for such a lovely studio space in NYC.

Isolation almost broke me.

I thought handling everything by myself made me strong. What it actually did was leave me carrying weight nobody was built to carry solo.

Healing didn’t start until I let people in.

Life is not designed for us to go at it alone. First Episode of Mind Body Legacy, out now.
