Our Families Ourselves
Each week, "elder" millennial moms Ann-Sophie and Maria meet people who challenge the traditional notion of family-forming and parenting. We explore the joy, the pain, and - let’s face it - dysfunction of creating a family. Adoption, IVF, surrogacy, child-free by choice, and more … these are our families, told through our voices.
Our Families Ourselves
An LGBTQ Family’s Surrogacy Journey with Corey Johnson & Meyer (7 months old!)
It’s our youngest guest yet! Seven month-old Meyer and his dad, LA-based actor Corey, tell us their family’s experience with surrogacy. Maria and Ann-Sophie also get political this week as we rail against the dismantling of reproductive rights in the US. Tune in for our rant, stay for the delightful guest and adorable baby sounds.

- How surrogacy works from start to finish
- The relationship between a surrogate and expectant parents
- The ups and downs of a fertility journey
