From Heartache to Hope, Rebecca shares her difficult journey to motherhood. It's a story full of heartbreak, shock, and hope for those who are looking to IVF treatment in Alabama. She discusses the longing to complete her family and the devastation that the recent Alabama Supreme ruling has had on her family and those going through IVF in the state. 

Rebecca is a wife and mother of two through IVF and surrogacy. On the other side of IVF, she is using her voice to advocate for those who feel they are not being heard since the recent ruling by the Alabama Supreme Court. She believes in advocating for women's reproductive rights and has been featured on Good Morning America, CNN, Ground News, ABC News,  and WSFA 12

Additional Info.
In-vitro fertilization is a medical procedure where doctors induce ovulation to remove eggs from a patient and fertilize them with sperm outside the body. The resulting embryos can either be implanted into a patient’s uterus in the hopes of getting pregnant, or the embryos can be frozen for future use. Some embryos are usually discarded in the process – an action that now violates Alabama’s Wrongful Death of a Minor Act, a civil law dating back to 1872 that allows parents to sue over the death of a child. “Applies to all unborn children, regardless of location and developmental stage.” 

The overturn of Roe v. Wade and a recent incident in Mobile was a catalyst that sparked questions surrounding the sanctity of unborn life. An incident took place at the Mobile Infirmary Medical Center where a patient wandered into the area and removed several embryos, dropping them on the floor, resulting in killing the embryos. 

Last week the Alabama Supreme Court paused IVF in the state of Alabama causing many parents to worry about growing their families who could be facing criminal prosecution along with their doctors. Friday, the Alabama Attorney General's office released a statement explaining they have no intention to prosecute IVF families or providers. 

However,  medical experts share concerns about the widespread effects this may have across the country as well as creating a blueprint for groups and legislators who may wish to target fertility treatments.

Amanda opens up about what it means to create a Brand like Musee and the importance of good design.

Amanda Broyles is the Creative Director and Lead Designer at Musee, a nationally recognized bath and body line based in Mississippi. After becoming a proud graduate of the University of Mississippi, Amanda and her husband Drew spent four years living in the Upper West Side of New York City where she started her career working remotely with the bath company, Musee. However, her heart eventually led her back to the warmth and hospitality of the South, where she has since made a significant mark in the world of creative design. Amanda resides in the charming town of Oxford, MS, with her husband Drew, and her two-year-old son.

Amanda, alongside Musee’s owner, Leisha Pickering, serves as the driving force behind the brand's whimsical aesthetic. With a remarkable seven-year tenure as the lead designer, Amanda has been the mastermind behind all packaging designs and brand photography.

During Amanda’s time at Musee, the brand has garnered widespread acclaim, earning recognition from prestigious platforms such as The Today Show, Southern Living, Harper's Bazaar, and even securing a spot on Oprah's coveted list of favorite things three years in a row. She has been the lead designer on brand collaborations with Anthropologie, Maisonette, The Honest Company, St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, West Elm, and Alabaster Co.

Her dedication to excellence and unwavering commitment to the Musee brand continues to elevate Musee's presence in the market. Outside of her creative endeavors at Musee, Amanda finds joy in the simple pleasures of life by spending time with her family and friends.
