About Tara Lipinski: Unexpecting
Tara Lipinski: Unexpecting takes listeners through the Olympic figure skating champions’ tumultuous, on-going, five-year quest to become a mother. Her journey began in 2018, and since then, the normally open and public athlete-turned-broadcaster has kept this often-devastating roller-coaster ride a secret. Until now. Most people have heard of in vitro fertilization (IVF), but not the often-cruel existence it forces upon its patients when complications arise. Listeners will be shocked at the vulnerability and honesty of the conversations, and the hunt for some sort of acceptable reason for Tara’s excruciatingly painful struggle to build a family will continually drive the story forward. Unexpecting will tackle uncomfortable and taboo subjects and take on the complicated issues surrounding IVF and infertility with sincerity and humor. Tara certainly didn’t predict she would be thrust into this world. But as the cliché goes, expect the unexpected.

[…] But if you were like in a room with her and you guys started talking, there's just a shared experience which I love. It's just so interesting. It's funny. You say that. I don't know what it is, but I love the feeling because it's unspoken, right? Even with dry, I mean, sometimes I mean, Johnny and I are so close. We talk about it, but it's like they know something that I know that not everyone else knows in a way that we know is very specific. And there's so much emotion attached to that. And it's like a lot of times in sports. It's part of your childhood and your upbringing and just like formative years. […]
