IVF Failed You - The "So Now What?" Podcast

I am a Fertility Survivor.  The kind you enter into treatments hoping you will never be... childless.  After several rounds of IUI and IVF, at some of the leading Fertility Centers, I was told I was no longer a candidate for fertility treatment.  It left me asking myself...

So now what?

For the years that followed, I tried to put myself back together and tell myself I would be OK, but I wasn't.  I was shattered - I felt alone and failed by the whole process and especially, my body.  I yearned for others that felt the pain I felt and someone that could help me navigate a life without a child. 

I didn't find it, so I decide to create it.  

Fast forward to today. I am still childless, but my beliefs about my life have changed.  I decided that I can create meaning and purpose in my life even though I am not a mother.  I've learned to love myself and the body I felt failed me as a woman.

If you've been on this journey, hop on and join me as we create something we were not offered.  Let's create a sisterhood for the bravest women I know.  We brush ourselves off and don't let terms like: Failed, Unexplained, Miscarriage, Not-viable or Advanced Maternal Age define us anymore.

 St.

Patrick's Day is always historically such a celebration. And where we live in the city was kind of like in the height of everything that was going on. On my morning thrive after infertility mastermind call with our Saturday cohort. And I was looking at the window and the parade route was assembling; people were...

 I am so excited to talk to you this week about an area of focus that I learned. When I was in my life coach certification. Something, my teacher, Brooke Castillo taught me about consuming versus creating.

 

 One of the things that brought this topic to light for me most recently was receiving a message from one of...

 I mentioned to you last week that we were going to Lake Tahoe for our annual trip with my niece and nephew, my sister and brother-in-law, and I am just feeling so fortunate that I've been able to be an aunt and my niece and nephew.

 

My sister and brother-in-law really have made it a priority to include Jack and I in...
