Fischer had originally tried to conceive in a previous marriage and saw for the first time that fertility wasn't as simple as high school sex-ed. “Getting a divorce at 35, 36, it made me realize this is actually all a little bit fragile and I need to protect it,” she says. “So I'm going to freeze my eggs and then I'm going to go on living my life and revisit fertility later. Freezing my eggs gave me that freedom and that option and that flexibility.”
She also talks about her love of traditional Hungarian foods like head cheese, dark dramas and how the pandemic has shifted calculations for many people about having a family.
