235 – Gestational Carrier and Surrogacy Miracles with Shadina Blunt

Erica Michelle

Shadina Blunt is a two-time gestational carrier, most notably for Grammy-award winning singer-songwriter Kandi Burrus and her husband Todd Tucker of the Real Housewives of Atlanta. Shadina came forward with her story along with the Tuckers, and is now known as the face of surrogacy.

Shadina released her first book in December 2021, a children’s book entitled Miracle Motherhood: Mary’s Gift of Life. This self-published, beautifully illustrated book follows two families whose chance meeting leads them through gestational surrogacy…and helps answer many of the questions children of intended families and carrier families tend to have about the gestational surrogacy process. 

Shadina is passionate about gestational surrogacy as an option for families who cannot safely carry a baby. Shadina is also co-owner Surrogacy Miracles Consulting in Atlanta where she helps families navigate the complexities of gestational surrogacy. Her new non-profit is designed to help financially support families – especially families of color and same sex-couples- who seek gestational surrogacy to grow their families after suffering in silence after pregnancy loss, fertility issues, and societal stigmas and shame. Gestational surrogacy is not just for celebrities!

In today’s episode we discuss her journey to motherhood, becoming a gestational carrier, her new book and Surrogacy Miracles agency.
