OVER DEZE AFLEVERING
In this powerful episode, host Monica Fullerton sits down with Amy Suzanne, military spouse, mom of six, and founder of Pink Stork. Amy shares her astonishing journey from being told she might never have children to surviving hyperemesis gravidarum, a life-threatening blood infection, multiple deployments and PCS moves—and ultimately building a mission-driven women's wellness brand found at Target, Walmart, Amazon, and in 25+ countries. It's a story of faith, grit, and using your hardest seasons to help others.
Key Takeaways
- From "impossible" to "I'm possible": Amy was told she couldn't have kids—then learned she was pregnant two weeks into marriage, later surviving HG, PICC lines, and a 24-hour prognosis.
- Resilience through military life: NICU scares, back-to-back pregnancies, solo parenting during deployments, and PCS chaos—plus the learning curve of acronyms and base life.
- Turning pain into purpose: Research into gut health, vitamins, minerals, and probiotics during pregnancy led to a 180° shift—and the spark for Pink Stork.
- Build for impact: Pink Stork now offers 170+ products supporting women through fertility, pregnancy, postpartum, hormones, perimenopause/menopause, and beyond—each batch prayed over.
- Community & calling: ~80% of the Pink Stork team are women, with strong support for military spouses. Share your story, ask for help, and use your experiences to lift others.
- Mantras to move you: Keep the end goal in sight, stay open-handed with the journey, and remember—growth begins when comfort ends.
