The Embrace Podcast
Join us in some of our most juicy conversations about how Surrogate Partner Therapy really works. We bust myths, answer tough questions, and share real live case studies from our professional experiences in the work of SPT.
We’re so glad you’re here!
… and as you could guess, consent is supremely important to us. We have made a thoughtful decision to share these intimate discussions and stories with other professionals and not the general public. While no identifying information is shared regarding our clients, we are choosing to keep these episodes off of the broader internet as an added layer of emotional protection. Please respect us and the very personal journeys of our clients by respecting our boundary around this. Want to share our podcast with another professional? Please direct them to join our mailing list, too.
Thank you!
