Emma Barnett On Re-branding Pain As Weakness Into Pain As Strength | Fearne Cotton's Happy Place

After going through numerous rounds of IVF, as well as having a miscarriage, broadcaster, writer, and author Emma Barnett want to re-brand pain as a weakness into pain as strength, especially at work. Do you have open conversations at work when you’re in pain emotionally or physically? In this chat with Fearne, she talks through the worries she had that she might be seen as greedy for wanting a second child through IVF when she’d already had a wonderful son by IVF, and how she’s put this shame to bed. They also explore the often cruel language around infertility, and the difference between sympathy and empathy when it comes to difficulties conceiving.
