Episode 157 - How mind-body work makes IVF 1000x better
Out of 156 podcast episodes, I’ve never done one on IVF—which is honestly kind of wild.   And if I’m being really honest with you… I think it’s because I’ve been so careful with this topic. I know how deeply emotional IVF is, and I never want to add to anyone’s pain. But this year, I made a promise to myself: to speak my truth fully. Because when I hold back out of fear, I also hold back from the women who need to hear this message.   Here’s the truth: IVF isn’t just a medical process—it’s a deeply emotional one. And yet, so much of the focus is on numbers, medications, and test results… while no one asks how you’re actually feeling in all of this.   I know firsthand how easy it is to attach your worth to your IVF outcome. I’ve lived the shame of feeling like my body was failing me. But the most powerful shift I made—the one that changed everything—was realizing this:   Your worth has nothing to do with how your baby comes to you. You are not broken. You have done nothing wrong. IVF isn’t something happening to you—it’s something you’re choosing (more about this inside of the podcast) and that shift alone is game-changing.   When you approach IVF from this place—not from fear, but from deep trust in yourself—it doesn’t justfeel better… There's ample research that it improves outcomes.   Studies have shown that when IVF patients apply mind-body tools, it leads to a higher quality of life and improved pregnancy rates. And yet, most women go through this process without knowing how to take care of themselves through it all.   Not on my watch!   In this episode, I break down: The shame so many women carry around IVF (and how to release it) The small but massive mind-body shifts that can transform your experience Why mind-body work isn’t about “being calm” but about staying connected to yourself How to move through IVF feeling stronger, not smaller.   If you’re thinking about IVF, going through it, or trying to heal from it—this episode is for you.
