One of the issues that has been front-and-center on the campaign trail is reproductive healthcare.

Today, Nicole talks to entrepreneur Jessica Schaefer about the cost, and future, of fertility. Jessica shares her own experience with freezing her eggs, what resources can make IVF more affordable and how she’s providing solutions with her startup Lushi.
