  Financially Protecting Your Journey: Understanding Escrow with SeedTrust

  Oct 1, 202625 min

  When intended parents begin a surrogacy or egg donation journey, protecting the funds dedicated to that journey is an important part of the process. In this episode of Bringing Dreams & Miracles Together, Family Source Consultants’ Chris Gao sits down with Kayleen from SeedTrust Escrow to talk about all things escrow, including why working with an experienced, independent escrow provider matters. Kayleen explains how escrow works, how intended parent funds are securely held and disbursed according to the legal agreement, and how surrogate and egg donor compensation and reimbursements are managed throughout a journey. They also discuss the safeguards families should look for when choosing an escrow provider, including bonding, insurance, independent audits, secure technology, and transparent processes for managing funds. Chris also shares why Family Source Consultants does not hold client escrow funds in-house and instead partners with an independent third-party provider. Kayleen explains SeedTrust’s financial safeguards, including its $100 million bond, additional insurance coverage, and independent third-party audits. The conversation answers practical questions intended parents often have, including how escrow accounts are funded, how payments are approved and distributed, what happens to escrow during a rematch, how concurrent journeys are handled, when an account can be closed following delivery, and how remaining funds are returned. Whether you are beginning a surrogacy or egg donation journey or simply want to better understand the financial side of family building, this episode offers valuable insight into the role independent escrow plays in protecting everyone involved.

  From a Calling to “We Did It”: Surrogate Ashley’s Story

  Sep 17, 202631 minS4

  What does it feel like to help someone finally hold the baby they have dreamed of? In this episode of Bringing Dreams & Miracles Together , we sit down with Family Source surrogate Ashley to reflect on her journey, from first feeling called to become a surrogate to watching her intended parents hold their baby girl for the very first time. After becoming a mother herself, Ashley began learning more about infertility and the families who needed another path to parenthood. She knew she loved pregnancy, and the thought of helping another family experience the joy of becoming parents stayed with her. What started as an idea soon became a journey that would impact not only Ashley and her intended parents, but their families, friends, and entire support system. Ashley shares how she and her husband educated themselves about gestational surrogacy, what she looked for when choosing her intended parents, and why their match felt so natural from the beginning. She takes us through a successful first embryo transfer, pregnancy milestones, the relationship she developed with her intended parents, and an unexpected change in her delivery plan that ultimately led to a healthy baby girl. She also opens up about the moment that stays with her most, seeing the intended parents with their daughter and realizing, “We did it.” Now, Ashley gets to experience her journey from an entirely new perspective. Instead of sending pregnancy updates, she receives photos and videos as the little girl she carried reaches new milestones, including taking her first steps. Ashley also shares how important support was throughout her experience, from her husband and family to her Family Source case coordinator, surrogate support team, and the community of other surrogates she connected with along the way. Today, she continues to share her experience and support other women considering surrogacy. Thinking about becoming a surrogate or exploring surrogacy to grow your family?

  More Than a Donation: Family Source Egg Donor Shares Her Journey of Helping Build Families

  Sep 3, 202626 minS4

  What inspires someone to become an egg donor, and what keeps her coming back to help more families? In this episode of Bringing Dreams & Miracles Together , Cara Maple, Chief Client & Business Officer, sits down with Family Source Egg Donor Mel, one of FSC’s most sought-after and proven egg donors, to talk candidly about her experience through multiple egg donation journeys. Mel’s story began at just 21 years old after a meaningful conversation with her brother opened her eyes to the many different ways families can be created. That conversation led her to egg donation, and ultimately to an experience that she says has helped shape who she is today. Mel shares what surprised her about the process, traveling for retrievals, injectable medications, recovery, and how each donation has been different. She also opens up about the importance of listening to and advocating for your body, surrounding yourself with the right support system, and some of the common misconceptions she hears about egg donation. Now 26, Mel reflects on how her perspective has evolved over the past five years, including her thoughts on closed, semi-open, and open egg donation. She also shares one of her most meaningful memories, receiving a heartfelt letter and butterfly necklace from recipient parents whose lives she was helping to change. For women considering egg donation, Mel offers a firsthand look at what the experience is really like. For recipient parents searching for an egg donor, she shares an important reminder that this journey can be deeply meaningful to the donor, too.
