The Fertility Conversation NOT Had with Dr. Jamie Knopman
About this episode
Blaine and Dr. Jaime Knopman discuss the evolving landscape of fertility, focusing on egg freezing and the importance of women's empowerment in reproductive health decisions.
Join me and my guest Jaime Knopman, MD, a board certified reproductive endocrinologist and Director of Fertility Preservation for CCRM Fertility of New York. She is also Assistant Clinical Professor in Obstetrics and Gynecology at Mount Sinai Hospital. We explore the intersection of fertility, career-building, and personal agency and why equitable access to egg freezing is essential to gender equality in the workplace and beyond. Dr. Knopman brings not only deep clinical expertise, but also a culturally sharp, unapologetically feminist perspective on why women shouldn’t have to choose between thriving professionally and preserving their future ability to have children. Nearly 70% of her patients today are freezing eggs before they face infertility. And companies such as Meta, Disney, and Amazon often cover the cost. She also highlights new pathways like egg-sharing programs that allow women to preserve their fertility at no cost, if they choose to donate a portion of their eggs. These trends reflect a cultural shift, and one she believes we urgently need to accelerate. SHOW NOTES SPONSORED BY: Power of You! https://leader.blainebartlett.com/power-of-you Summary In this…
