I was 48 and&nbsp;single. My dream came true just 2 months before&nbsp;my 50th birthday &#8211; Freya was born! I will be forever grateful to OLGA!\u00a0 I am delighted to share my personal journey on&nbsp;the TEDx stage, with my talk &#8220;The road less travelled to motherhood&#8221;. I hope that&nbsp;this may help you in&nbsp;some way &#8211; whether&nbsp;it is to inspire you, give you a little courage, clarity, or&nbsp;hope. My talk will help dispel the silence, shame and&nbsp;stigma that&nbsp;exists around fertility choices, &#8220;older&#8221;motherhood, IVF including donor conception, and&nbsp;childlessness (by choice or&nbsp;not). Finally, I hope that&nbsp;it will help build more empathy and&nbsp;understanding within our communities around these topics. Please share and&nbsp;spread the word! May your dreams come true.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\nJoin Kerry and&nbsp;Olga in&nbsp;our InstaLive 15 January at&nbsp;18:00 CET\u00a0 devoted to solo motherhood in&nbsp;mature age!<br \/>\nCome one step closer to the fulfillment of your dream!<\/p>\n<p>Please fill in&nbsp;the short form below to get email and&nbsp;WhatsApp reminders about InstaLive 15 January in&nbsp;15 min before&nbsp;the start at&nbsp;18:00 CET.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"button\" href=\"#footerform\">Get a reminder<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our dear former patient @kerrywellbeing has recently given a TEDx Talk about her journey to hold her daughter in&nbsp;her arms &#8211; &#8220;The road less travelled to motherhood&#8221;.\u00a0 It&#8217;s the first time that&nbsp;the subject of solo motherhood, older motherhood, and&nbsp;donor conception is spoken about on&nbsp;the TEDx stage: If&nbsp;you are in&nbsp;your 40s &#8211; early 50s, encountering difficulties<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":21821,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[25],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-21820","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-press"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>The Road Less Travelled to Motherhood | Kerry White | TEDxTralee - O.L.G.A.
