I was coaching my radiantly pregnant (45 year old) mama inside of our FMBM coaching call, and she had been sold the same lie that I was while TTC. That pregnancy (and motherhood) are a walk in the park and that you should be beaming with gratitude 24/7 and that everyday you should feel like you’re JLo in the middle of one of her romance movies. Cute, bubbly, daily blow-out hair style and almost fearless. So when we get pregnant – and we wake up dry heaving with just enough energy to put together a quick bread and cheese sammie, while anxiously anticipating the next ultrasound – we wonder if there’s something that we’re doing wrong. Luckily for my client, all the tools she’s learned to become pregnant, she is now applying to pregnancy. She’s primed her nervous system for pregnancy, before it even happened. She’s feeling more equipped for the sensations she’s experiencing in pregnancy. Here’s one thing I want you to take in and if you do... things can change for you real fast: Your fertility journey is here to expand your energetic capacity for pregnancy – by training your nervous system to tolerate a greater range of sensation. This is important to know because we all experience challenges, intense emotions and uncertainty while TTC. And we respond to these experiences with resistance and thoughts like, “This shouldn’t be happening to me.” or “I shouldn’t be feeling this way.” or worst, “I can’t do this.” when you absolutely can ❤️ These sacred moments are grooming your mind and body for conception. I recorded a podcast – Expanding your nervous system capacity for pregnancy – to explain more deeply what I mean, how to do it and how my program Fertility Mind-Body Mastery was designed to prime your nervous system for both peace and pregnancy. This one will blow your mind and make your life a helluva lot easier. Listen now!

Have you heard that Tony Robbins' quote: "Most people overestimate what they can do in a year, and underestimate what they can do in 2 or 3 decades."? Here's my version, tailored for you, the strong and determined woman on the path to motherhood: Most women TTC overestimate what they can do in 1 or 2 months, and underestimate what they can do in 1 year. If you're a sensitive visionary who can almost taste the vision for your baby-filled life during meditations, you know the feeling. You have this gorgeous vision – whether it's your journey to your baby or a career aspiration – but when things don't go exactly as planned OR happen overnight, the temptation to give up is real. It’s easy to lose all hope and momentum, especially if you're a perfectionist. But what if a failure isn’t what’s really happening behind the scenes? What if it’s all just starting to come together, but you can’t see it physically yet? ... And that gifting your dream of finally getting pregnant time and SPACE could be your greatest ally? Not involuntary time and space. VOLUNTARY. And that doing this will make time feel shorter, NOT longer. In the latest Fertile Ground podcast episode: How a year can change your life AND fertility journey – I explore how embracing these factors can transform your journey and make it so much easier for your dream to land here physically. You’ll learn about: The power of giving your desire space: How space provides clarity and actually reduces the pressure to conceive ASAP. The art of adaptation: Why space is essential for nurturing your desires AND overall well-being. Space and resilience: How it helps you find balance, form meaningful connections, and celebrate all the progress you make along the way. (It’s happening, even if you don’t see it yet). December is fast approaching and it can be a tough time for couples TTC. I want you to know that A LOT can happen in a year, especially with the right attunement to your mind-body and a loving commitment to create space for your desire to be a mama.

Have you ever read an inspiring book that you completely fell in love with, and you were like, “Omg this has changed my life!” but then a month after you close the last page – you’re right back to feeling like you did before reading it? What happened? Why the fizzle? How do you make the transformation last? There are two important components to transformation. 1.Theory = The knowledge. 2.Application = How do you APPLY this knowledge into everyday situations. Application is what’s often missing. It’s what keeps the momentum going. It’s what teaches you HOW to apply what you’ve learned into your TTC journey. This may be the missing piece to really applying everything you’ve learned to create a mind-body transformation. To clear this up and help you spot what could be a GAME changer, I recorded a podcast on: The biggest missing piece to mindset work. Cause listen, you’ve put in lots of hard work trying to manage your mind and get your body ready for baby. I don’t want you to miss this important and exciting step. Listen now!

Why do you (we) get so disappointed when things don’t go according to plan? Here’s the 2 answers I can come up with: Because we believe that things should have gone according to plan. Because we think we know best. And here’s the thing about thoughts...When they don’t make our bodies feel good – like the thought, “I should know the way.” cause it makes me feel super icky and shame myself – we get to change them. Because if we are honest, we have to admit that things don’t go according to plan... often. For everyone. Not just you. So we can spend our lives wishing life would answer our plans. Even when our baby comes... we’ll keep resisting life’s twists/turns/new opportunities. ORRRRR We can spend our lives learning to trust the unfolding of the Universe... even when things don’t go according to plan. If both roads led to your baby, which would you choose? The fight, the battle, the shaming and blaming yourself when shit doesn’t go to plan? Or the “Everything is always working out for me” truth? I get that our brains need some convincing to let go of OUR plans. So I recorded a podcast to help you create safety around teaching your mind and body to trust the unfolding on the journey to your baby. Not just to get pregnant, but because I want you to get your life back. I want you to feel joy every day. And I want you to have compassion for yourself when the unexpected (gifts) presents itself. Listen to this week’s podcast: The JOY of things not going to according to plan. Where you’ll learn: To validate your need for control. How to have a HEALTHY sense of control over your fertility journey (it’s not about feeling powerless. I want you to feel powerful as fuck). Use these change-of-plans-moments to actually build MOMENTUM towards your baby. Listen now!

As you’re reading this email, I’m most likely sleeping, meditating, oracle card reading or listening to 528 Hz beats while going pen to paper

This mama needs a break. I need a break away from producing, promoting, posting, doing, blooming.

And I ain’t got no shame.

After my book launch and a recent death in my family which has left me quite heart broken, my body is feeling burnt out. And to me, that means, I need (not want... need) a retreat inward.

Of course, my socialized self is tempted to bypass this very real, very necessary call to rest.

But I’m listening. Because I know that this time and space inward, is where I recharge and receive the most bang on guidance about next steps in my life.

I will never find what I’m looking for, outside of myself.

I recorded a podcast this week where I share more about this decision, because too many of us are attempting to bloom all year round. When a retreat inwards, could be the exact medicine you need to get happy and/or get pregnant.

You are an extension of nature. You have this code inside of you that knows what you need to thrive, to grow (yourself and that belly) and to be the best version of yourself.

But you miss this. YOU. MISS. THIS... when you don’t take the time to fold inward and hear what nature wants for you.

To learn how to do this, listen to this week’s podcast.

The code of your nature has been patiently waiting for you.

What I resented most about TTC for so long, was how alone I felt, and how hardly anyone knew how to support me through it. Your monkey mind might tell you that it’s just easier NOT to talk about it and you might even subconsciously isolate yourself, because you believe you’re safer this way. But the last thing isolation is on the journey, is safe and easy. And although you’re attempts are to feel better, research shows it creates a mind-body disconnect. (More about the latest research in the podcast.) Of course, time to yourself is healthy. But social connection, finding people who understand your struggles and realizing you’re not an alien on the TTC journey is incredibly relieving and very healthy for your soul. So in this weeks podcast, we’re gonna chat about the importance of community when you’re TTC. You’re gonna learn: How to overcome the monkey mind objections that you tell you that you’re “different” and that you don’t need a community (Yes, I know you have them. Cause I did too.). Why a TTC community is NOT a pity party, but empowering. How to find one. I know that part of the reason why you want your baby, is so that you can finally feel like you belong. But I promise you that you can fulfill this yearning now. Stop waiting. Start living and feel the relief of connection. Listen now!

Before joining Fertility Mind-Body Mastery, Julie was doing ALL of the things to get pregnant. She was focused solely on the physical aspects of fertility. Including (but not limited to) a glass of celery juice every morning — as per her acupuncturists suggestion — that made her want to barf her brains out. But she was willing to do anything she could to make her baby. After some time, her AND her husband realized that they were a shell of who they used to be. IE, they both love football. So they would either go to parties and feel ashamed and guilty. Or not go and feel BORED and guilty. They were damned if they did and damned if they didn’t.Ever been in this spot? Where... no matter WHAT, your decision is never enough? This is why Julie joined my program. Pregnant or not, she wanted her and her life back. A few months in, she became pregnant with FMBM’s FIRST set of twins and is now 22 weeks pregnant! So in this weeks podcast, I interview this amazing woman who is willing to share her story with you and everything she learned to transform her fertility from the inside out. You’re gonna learn: The very valid fears she has around joining my program. Why the over-focus on the physical may be a distraction from what matters. What the process of actually letting go and surrendering looks like in real life and why you might be PLEASANTLY surprised to learn this! The easiest way to heal your shame. Listen now!

What happens when we wait for something outside of us to tell us we’re doing enough, we have enough or we are enough? It becomes a very vicious cycle. A cycle of being vulnerable, putting your hopes and dreams out into the world - and then giving ALL of the power...the “did I do good enough this time?” to something or someone else. EVEN THOUGH you have the power inside of you - EVEN THOUGH you have the capabilities to uncover, deep down, that the truth is that you are worthy and enough no matter what - you’ve given your power to someone or something outside of you. How you see yourself, is what shapes your world. And if you can begin to lean into your worthiness now - the world will respond accordingly. Listen to this podcast to learn how to feel enough and worthy now.
