In this powerful episode of Modern Conception: A New Era of Fertility, Decoded, hosts Brittney Sobel and Amanda Zurawski sit down with Simmone Taitt, founder of Poppy Seed Health, to share an intimate and deeply moving look at her journey through infertility, loss, healing, and now—surrogacy.


With her baby born just weeks ago, Simmone opens up about the moment she realized surrogacy was the right path, the experiences that shaped her decision, and the beauty and complexity of building a family on her own terms.


Together, we explore:

  • The emotional path from infertility to surrogacy

  • What surprised her most about the fertility journey

  • Why breaking the silence around infertility matters

  • How her work at Poppy Seed Health intersects with her personal journey

  • The message she wants others to hear about nontraditional paths to parenthood

This episode is a vulnerable, hopeful, and deeply human conversation about redefining family, honoring your story, and choosing the path that’s right for you.
