Zoë, Editor of PEOPLE Digital, Normalizes Many Paths to Parenthood Through Me Becoming Mom Podcast

<p>Zoë Ruderman, editor of PEOPLE digital, was excited to quickly get pregnant after she and her husband decided to start a family. However, that elation was shortlived when Zoë had her first miscarriage. Zoë and her husband endured repeated miscarriages and were eventually advised to try IVF to conceive. Though Zoë never lost faith that she would one day get pregnant and have a family, she kept her IVF journey private to protect herself from needing to spend the emotional energy to explain her journey to others. Inspired by her own path to parenthood, Zoë launched the podcast, Me Becoming Mom. The mission of Me Becoming Mom is to destigmatize the many paths to parenthood. She wants people to hear the stories of celebrities to normalize the many ways that people can start families. </p><p><br><strong>Links Referenced in the Episode: </strong></p><p><a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/me-becoming-mom/id1586155512">Podcast</a>: Zoe’s podcast, Me Becoming Mom</p><p><a href="https://people.com/parents/me-becoming-mom-podcast-how-to-listen/">Article</a>: to read more about Me Becoming Mom </p><p><a href="https://emilyoster.net/writing/">Book</a>: Emily Oster’s Book, Expecting Better that Bridget and Zoë nerd out on in the episode </p>
