From freezing eggs at 39 to overcoming loss, Elise shares her story of resilience and finding joy in motherhood with her daughter, Eve.
In this heartfelt episode of No Need for Prince Charming, Elise shares her extraordinary journey to becoming a solo mum by choice to her daughter, Eve. From always knowing she wanted to be a mother, Elise takes us through the highs and lows of her path—freezing eggs at 39, facing unexpected loss, and ultimately finding joy through donor egg IVF with the generous help of her cousin.
Elise opens up about the emotional hurdles of miscarriages, navigating a challenging pregnancy, and how her resilience—and a little bit of pixie dust—brought her to the most beautiful gift of all: her daughter. Her story highlights the importance of staying open-minded, finding supportive specialists, and leaning on family when it matters most.
