The Donor Route: Tracey Bravo’s Path to Solo Motherhood Through Sperm Donation

When Tracey Bravo realised she wanted to be a mother but hadn’t met the right person to share that journey with, she made a bold decision - to go it alone.

Without knowing anyone who had taken this path before, she embarked on a deeply personal adventure: choosing to conceive via a sperm donor.

In our conversation, Tracey shares how she navigated the process, from selecting a donor to undergoing IVF. We discuss the societal perceptions of single parenthood, the challenges she faced, and the unexpected joys that made it all worthwhile.

Tracey’s story is one of courage, determination, and defying convention to create the life she dreamed of. She offers insights into the support networks she built, the lessons she’s learned, and advice for anyone considering the same route.

This is an inspiring conversation about rewriting the rules, embracing adventure in all its forms, and proving that there’s no single way to build a family.
