Do Not Disturb: The Inside Story - A podcast by Simona Deifta

Categories:

In this powerful episode Simona sits down with Dr. Marcia Inhorn, Yale professor and author of Motherhood on Ice, to explore the real reasons behind the global rise in egg freezing. Far from being about ambition or career planning, Dr. Inhorn reveals the deeper truth: millions of educated, empowered women are freezing their eggs not because they don’t want love but because they can’t find it. From the mating gap to hypergamy, feminist technology, and the raw realities of navigating motherhood alone, this is a vital conversation for anyone rethinking what it means to "have it all."🎧 A must-listen for women navigating fertility, love, and ambition in the 21st century.✨ Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more honest, empowering conversations!📌 CHAPTERS00:00 – Meet Dr. Marcia Inhorn, Yale professor and author of Motherhood on Ice.02:15 – Why Women Really Freeze Their Eggs08:43 – The Mating Gap Explained15:30 – Hypergamy vs. Hypogamy: The Dating Dilemma22:12 – The Three Ps & Three Es29:40 – Personal Story: Love Beyond Credentials36:05 – Egg Freezing: Cost, Process & Success Rates43:17 – Equity, Not Equality: A New Feminist Lens50:22 – Redefining Family, Rethinking Love57:00 – Having It All?
