Erin Andrews on IVF and the Long Road to Her Son Mack
About this episode
Erin Andrews discusses her journey to motherhood through IVF and surrogacy, sharing the challenges of parenting while working in sports broadcasting.
In this episode of The Parent Chat, Erin Andrews sits down with Dylan Dreyer for a conversation as raw and real as it gets — from her long journey to motherhood through IVF and surrogacy to the messy, beautiful reality of raising a toddler while working one of the most demanding jobs in sports broadcasting. Erin opens up about mom guilt, the pressure to pretend you have it all together, and why she made a promise to herself to just be honest with people. Because as both women agree — putting that wall up all the time is exhausting.
