Erin Holland // On classical voice, congeniality and conceiving through IVF

Published: Aug. 10, 2022, 10:14 a.m.

Lovely yayborhood, today\u2019s guest is special for so many different reasons not least because we were born just three days apart and have so much in common. You\u2019ll hear me say I think we\u2019d be dear friends if we lived in the same city, and I\u2019ve admired this amazing woman for many years from afar.\nLike many of our guests, you may have first heard about Erin Holland as Miss World Australia 2013 but there is so much more depth and detail to her pathYAY that somehow flies under the radar. For example, she not only has an incredible voice she\u2019s actually a classically trained soprano singer, graduated with a Bachelor of Classical Voice from the Sydney Conservatorium of Music is also qualified in clarinet, music theory, jazz, tap and initially dreamt of being on Broadway.\nAlso like many guests, she hasn\u2019t ended up exactly where she expected but is seizing all her yay in presenting, TV, ambassadorships and the coolest role ever with the Pakistan Super League \u2013 her experience working in such a different culture deserves a WHOLE separate episode (which I actually think we\u2019ll do next time she\u2019s over there). But, as promised in the anonymous Q&A episode, it\u2019s her journey with fertility and IVF that we\u2019re here for today.\nThis is one of the only podcasts Erin has done on the topic since first opening up earlier in the year about her challenges with conceiving and the IVF process and I am so honoured she shares so openly and honestly about what it\u2019s involved physically, mentally and emotionally. I\u2019ll let you hear the rest from her, but I hope you learn as much as I did.\n\nFOLLOW ERIN HERE\n\n+ Announcements on Insta at @spoonful_of_sarah\n+ Join our Facebook community here\n+ Subscribe to not miss out on the next instalment of YAY!\n\nWATCH THIRTEEN LIVES ON PRIME VIDEO
