London is the Reason: Support for Surrogate Mothers and Intended Parents with guest Kristin McQuaid

Read the full show notes: https://www.draimee.org/london-is-the-reason-with-kristin-mcquaid

Today, I'm so honored to have Kristin McQuaid joining me to talk about a very touching and powerful topic: support for surrogate mothers and intended parents through infant loss. Kristin and her husband, Steve, started a non-profit organization in honor of their daughter, London Quinn, who was born still at 39 weeks in July, 2021. They named the organization "London is the Reason," and the non-profit focuses on supporting surrogates and their intended parents through infant loss. I feel quite privileged to have Kristin share her story, and the story of her daughter London with us. I know you will be moved by what she shares.

We will be talking about her diagnosis of stage four endometriosis, how she learned about surrogacy, and how she, her husband and their gestational carrier navigated through the loss of London last year. She will also share additional resources for anyone experiencing loss as a surrogate and intended parent. And, you can learn more about "London is the Reason," and how to get involved.

You may know Kristin McQuaid is a choreographer, dancer, designer, creative director, director, and producer. Her work has gone viral on "You Think You Can Dance," and "Dance Moms." She now stars in her own reality show, "Kickin' it with Kristin," which launched on YouTube in Fall of 2021.

Thank you for joining me, Kristin!
