In a candid interview, the 32-year-old reality TV personality revealed that taking this proactive step has helped alleviate the stress and time pressure she often felt when embarking on new relationships.
“Egg freezing has been such a game-changer for me,” Rodriguez explained. “Before, I was always worried that my biological clock was ticking, and that added this constant sense of urgency to my dating life. I felt like I had to rush into things, which wasn’t fair to my partners or myself.”
Rodriguez, who found love with Bartise Bowden on the most recent season of “Love Is Blind,” said that having her eggs frozen has allowed her to approach her current relationship with a newfound sense of calm and clarity.
“With Bartise, I’ve been able to really take the time to get to know him, to build that emotional connection, without feeling like I’m running out of time to start a family,” she shared. “It’s been such a weight off my shoulders, and I think it’s allowed our relationship to develop in a much more natural and fulfilling way.”
The Texas-based marketing professional went on to encourage other women, especially those in their 30s, to seriously consider the option of egg freezing. She believes it’s a powerful tool that can provide invaluable peace of mind when it comes to family planning.
“I know it’s a big decision, and it’s not for everyone, but for me, it’s been life-changing,” Rodriguez said. “It’s allowed me to focus on finding the right partner, instead of constantly worrying about the ticking clock. And I think that’s made me a better, more present and authentic partner in the process.”
Rodriguez’s openness about her egg freezing experience has resonated with many of her fans, who have taken to social media to praise her for shedding light on this important but often overlooked issue.
“Good for you, Nancy!” one Instagram follower commented. “Egg freezing is such an empowering choice, and I’m so glad it’s made a positive difference in your life and your relationship.”
Another wrote, “This is such an important conversation to have. Thank you for being so candidaout your experience – I’m sure it will inspire a lot of women to explore this option for themselves.”
As Rodriguez continues to navigate the ups and downs of her “Love Is Blind” relationship in the public eye, her message about the benefits of egg freezing remains a powerful one. It’s a testament to her commitment to self-care, personal growth, and finding fulfillment on her own terms.
