Alexandra Ryan, the heart behind the headlines, the instrumental woman who carried Chrissy Teigen and John Legend's child, Wren, safely earthside, is here to bring us on a journey of love, generosity, dedication, and surrogacy. Alexandra shares her remarkable journey of carrying for Legends, revealing her stepping stones into surrogacy and the intimate bond that blossoms between surrogates and intended parents. Alexandra opens up about adjusting to the spotlight of celebrity surrogacy, the deep emotions involved, and the honor of having a child named after her.

"The small part I play in each of my surrogate babies' lives is that I carried them for a short time. I kept them safe. Then, I brought them into the world with their parents eagerly waiting for them. So I always carry that with me, but having Wren named after me was one of the most precious moments because nobody's named after me, not even my own daughter. So it's very special, and I feel so honored by it" – Alexandra Ryan.

As a voice for surrogates, Alexandra also busts the myths about surrogacy, addressing the misconceptions head-on, and takes us into the private moments that define such a profound life choice, where joy and challenge dance in a delicate balance. Alexandra shares her motivations for becoming a surrogate and her future aspirations to bring more joy into the lives of hopeful parents. As a champion for surrogates everywhere, Alexandra embodies the essence of giving the gift of family. Beyond the glitz of celebrity headlines, this episode delves into the genuine commitment and compassion of surrogacy while highlighting the necessary changes needed within medical fields. Episode highlights include:

  • The honor of surrogacy: Being selected by a celebrity couple for their journey
  • Navigating a surrogacy journey in the public eye and addressing the misconceptions
  • A legacy of love: The enduring impact of precious moments and genuine connections
  • Delivery rewards: The emotional journey of giving life to a family
  • Modernizing Surrogacy: The need to advance medical practices and policies
  • Advocating for yourself in surrogacy and prioritizing your well-being
  • Navigating pregnancy complications, personal family concerns, and planning for future journeys
  • Alexandra's favorite blossoming joys and highlights of pregnancy

"I feel the most beautiful when I'm pregnant. I feel the most beautiful knowing that I'm carrying life inside me." – Alexandra Ryan.
