Amy and Lachie: The Heavy Parts of Hope | Shit Stick of Life Podcast | S2 E13

Show Notes

In this episode, Kortney sits down with Amy Sheppard and Lachlan Stuart as they peel back the curtain on one of the hardest chapters of their journey. Together, they open up about their deeply personal journey through infertility and IVF, a chapter they’ve largely kept private until now.

They share how their relationship began, what they imagined for their future, and how quickly those dreams were challenged when starting a family didn’t go as expected. With raw honesty, Amy and Lachlan talk through the emotional toll of infertility, the strain it placed on their lives, and the pressure couples often feel to stay strong while quietly breaking down.

Throughout the conversation, they reflect on what helped them stay connected, the communication practices that held them together, and the support they leaned on when things felt impossibly heavy. Their openness sheds light on the silent battles so many couples face and offers a compassionate, unfiltered look at resilience, partnership, and navigating the unknown together.
