Description

Debie Monax loved math - its consistency and predictability. In math, all one had to do was follow the proper process and apply appropriate principals to produce a guaranteed result. She applied the same mindset to her life, believing that if she understood the rules and applied the proper principals to all her decisions, she would have the life she dreamed of. Established in a successful career as a CPA and engaged to a wonderful man, she was confident that she would soon have the family and the career that she desired. Debie's belief system shattered when she unexpectedly received a diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis. Soon after, Debie learned that advanced endometriosis likely had threatened her ability to become pregnant. Juggling an invisible disability and enduring fertility treatments, Debie had to rewrite and redefine her definition of faith, success, a perfect family, and even of herself.
