Why I shared my story
I wanted other women to feel less alone during the research phase. Reading Kirsty's guide helped me know what to ask and what to pack — and that made a real difference to how prepared I felt.
My advice for women researching now
- Take your time with independent research
- Ask every question — even the awkward ones
- Use checklists and timelines so nothing gets missed
- Remember that every journey is different
