Behavior Bitches

On Episode 91, Liat does a very #LiatMove and invites her OBGYN to join us on the show. He knows her pretty well-literally inside and out. Don’t worry we have some class and dont go into that detail. Instead we have Dr. Martin Hechanova share his family’s journey with surrogacy. We hope this episode helps disseminate the surrogacy process and all the fascinating steps involved (like swiping left and right on individuals based on their genetic make up). As always, this is an episode you don’t want to miss. That being said, tune in or miss the F#%k out!
