#27 From IVF to Adoption: Bec Riley on Infertility, Faith, and Finding Joy

Bec Riley always dreamed of becoming a mum. But when infertility shattered those dreams, she and her husband began a long and lonely IVF journey filled with heartbreak, disappointment, and unexpected complications.

In this honest and deeply personal conversation, Bec reflects on the emotional and physical toll of IVF, the loneliness that often comes with it, and how her faith evolved along the way.

Eventually, a path she hadn’t planned—adoption and later embryo adoption—brought deep joy and began a healing journey in her life. This is a story of raw emotion, spiritual depth, and hard-won hope for anyone facing detours, delays, or heartbreak in their own story.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

  1. Why infertility is often an invisible and misunderstood grief.
  2. How Bec stayed anchored in her faith even when God didn’t answer her prayers as expected.
  3. What it looked like to stop hoping ‘in the thing’ and start hoping ‘in God’.
  4. The beauty and complexity of both inter-country adoption and embryo adoption.
  5. Why being present and silent might be the best support you can give someone walking this road.
  6. How to find light and take the next step when life feels too heavy.
  7. Bec’s gentle encouragement for those feeling like there’s no way forward.
