Ep. 13 -When Infertility Alters the Path to Parenthood: Cristina O’Connell on Miscarriages, Grief, & Family Beyond Biology

2x author Cristina O’Connell  is immersed in the dance world owning 2 dance studios, and most recently led her dance team in Disneyland parade. But not everything can be as magical as a day at Disney. Despite her many achievements, her personal life has been marked by tragedy. 

Cristina shares her raw and powerful story of navigating infertility, enduring multiple miscarriages, and grappling with grief while balancing the demands of life and business. She opens up about the silent suffering that so many women face, the fear of sharing her struggles, and the pivotal moments that led her toward healing and renewed faith. Cristina’s vulnerability reminds us that even in our darkest seasons, there is still hope, purpose, and the possibility of restoration. Whether you’ve walked a similar path or love someone who has, this conversation will leave you feeling seen, inspired, and strengthened.
