About this listen
12/2/25 - Jim sits down with Dr. Marie Meaney to discuss her book "When Expecting Doesn't Happen: Turning Infertility into a Journey of Hope." As a bioethicist, Dr. Meaney brings a wealth of knowledge on the ethical, medical, and spiritual dimensions of infertility and reproductive technologies. In this episode, she explores the journey of infertility and secondary infertility, how couples can navigate emotional and spiritual challenges, and ways friends and family can provide meaningful support. We'll also discuss natural fertility treatments, including NaProTechnology, and the potential risks and ethical concerns surrounding in vitro fertilization. Dr. Meaney offers insight into the theology of reproductive medicine, shares practical strategies for maintaining hope and resilience, and highlights how couples can find grace and spiritual growth even amidst the disappointments of infertility. This conversation provides a comprehensive guide for couples and supporters seeking understanding, guidance, and hope on the path toward parenthood.
