Her quest for answers led her to the wonderful world of body literacy and fertility awareness in a way that was never described in her nursing textbooks.

Welcome to another episode of the hormone heartbeat podcast!
In today's episode of the fertility series, I decided to do something a little different and I am going to have a REAL and RAW conversation with a friend and fellow fertility soul sister. This episode is going to be personal, vulnerable and may get emotional, as I share my story openly for the first time!
We will not dwell on the hardships of infertility, nor will it be a ranting session, because those of you going through it, know exactly what it's about and those who aren’t there yet, your journey and story DOES NOT have to be what anyone else’s experience is.
Through sharing our personal stories, lessons, and blessings, the goal is to foster a connection with listeners and my fellow TTC warriors and offer listeners wisdom and insights that both myself and my guest, Rachel, have gained over our journeys!
Highlights from the episode:
Personal Journey and highlighting tough moments Unexplained infertility Toughest part of the journey Coping with the feeling that “something is wrong with me” Interpreting comments form friends and family Stress and Fertility Key learnings from the journey Planning Kids in future what to start doing now Divine timing and letting go of the control Reiki and fertility Blessings in the journey Fertility and your Marriage and relationship One piece of advice for couples moving forward Fertility clinic won’t solve all problems Permission to say no to a baby shower Social media and your fertilityThank you for listening! We invite you to connect with us!
