About this episode
Candice Williams shares her inspiring journey with IVF and the challenges she faced to become a mother.
"Where I grew up, not many kids make it out... gangsterism, drugs, it's rough… My Journey with IVF is not the only miracle I am grateful for today... this could have been far worse for me" Candice Williams, Mrs Universe-South Africa 2025, is our guest this week. She is a prominent advocate for IVF. Today she reflects on the difficult road she had to endure, just to be able to give birth to her own baby. Her story is a remarkable insight into the mental and physical challenges that many women deal with, to have a baby. Not taking it for granted. A walking miracle. This is the true story of a beauty Queen. Brought to you by Epi-Max Baby & Junior - Our Family, for Your Family. Sponsored by Curaprox and supported by Jacaranda FM.
