The Heartbeat of Infertility | Efe Fruci | TEDxSFU

We've all heard the saying "a lot can happen in a day" when we're looking for unexpected miracles to occur in our lives. However, nothing prepares women for the physical, mental, and emotional anguish they experience within 24 hours and beyond when they don’t hear that heartbeat, and the lengthy battles with infertility continue. Today, Efe Fruci will dive into the mental impact of her infertility journey and the pathway to motherhood while redefining the meaning of womanhood for those walking the same path. Wherever your journey takes you in his life keep finding your light through everything. Efe Fruci is the founder and executive director of the Odihi Foundation, a nonprofit organization aiming to build confidence and unleash the fullest potential in women worldwide. Her ultimate goal is to use her decade-long experience as a professional career and confidence coach, scientist, CEO, speaker, and author to equip women of all walks of life with the tools to succeed and thrive with greatness. She also holds a degree in Biomedical Science and Health Sciences from Oxford and a degree in Nursing/Midwifery, which secured her seat at the STEM table and set the bar for other prominent Black women. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
