There are many misconceptions about how IVF actually works—but those who have experienced it know that the realities of the process are more complicated than they might appear. Last month, 30 current and former fertility patients opened up about their unexpectedly long and challenging IVF journeys in a powerful piece by Annie Daly for Allure Magazine. This collection of unfiltered stories includes one from Maven’s Senior Medical Director, Danielle Dang. As a family medicine resident, Danielle underwent five back-to-back egg retrievals that ultimately resulted in five frozen embryos. But a few years later, when she and her husband went to test and implant the embryos, none worked. After 7.5 years of infertility, they ultimately had a son using a donor egg. Danielle views this experience—and her disenchantment with the fertility system—as one of the biggest reasons that she joined Maven, where every day she works to reimagine fertility as something affordable, accessible, and transparent—something that eases the patient burden rather than adding to it. Read more about Danielle’s experience, in her own words, and the 29 other stories of past and present fertility journeys: https://lnkd.in/euaqpRgZ

So how do the best leaders approach these conversations? The main rule: If you’re hearing the word “sorry,” question what you could do differently to level-set on your team.
