In this episode of The Connection Crew, we sit down with Lana Manikowski to hear the deeply personal story behind her infertility journey and how it ultimately led her to create a powerful community for women navigating life after infertility.

Lana opens up about the challenges she faced, the grief that often goes unseen, and the moment she realized she wanted to help others answer the difficult question: "So now what?" That question became the foundation of her book and podcast, So Now What?, where she helps women rediscover purpose and build fulfilling lives beyond infertility.

Together, we explore how vulnerability creates connection, why community is essential during life's hardest seasons, and how sharing your story can become a source of hope for others.

In this episode, you'll hear about:

• Lana's personal infertility journey
• Finding purpose after infertility
• The inspiration behind her book and podcast, So Now What?
• Building meaningful community through shared experiences
• Why authentic connection can change lives
• Why the new Venn Social is so important right now

Whether you've experienced infertility, supported someone who has, or simply believe in the power of human connection, this conversation is filled with honesty, hope, and encouragement.
