Eleonora Srugo on Uterus Didelphys, Fertility Pressure & Rewriting the Timeline

Season 7 Episode 114 Published 1 year, 2 months ago
Description

In this episode, Beth sits down with Eleonora Srugo, NYC luxury real estate powerhouse, star of Netflix's Selling the City, and fierce advocate for rewriting the rules around fertility and timelines. Eleonora gets real about her personal diagnosis of Uterus Didelphys, a rare congenital condition where a woman is born with two uteri—and often two cervices. With only 0.1–0.5% of women affected by this condition, Eleonora's choice to speak out publicly is nothing short of trailblazing. From multi-million dollar real estate deals to conversations around reproductive health, Eleonora opens up about navigating the pressures of womanhood in the spotlight, the rollercoaster of fertility treatments, and what it's like dating while carrying a diagnosis most people have never even heard of. 

This conversation is raw, real, and full of that signature Quiet the Clock energy: part therapeutic deep-dive, part empowering pep talk, and 100% reminder that you're not on anyone's timeline but your own. Whether you're considering egg freezing, navigating your own diagnosis, or simply tired of the noise about where you "should" be by now, this episode is your permission slip to take the pressure off—and own your journey.
