The stories we tell ourselves while TTC

The stories we tell ourselves while we are trying to conceive go something along the lines of this; I’m not getting pregnant and that means X, I don’t have a baby and that means X I’m not a mother yet and that means X. The end of these sentences can be things like * I’m broken * My body has failed me * I am worthless * Maybe I don’t deserve to be a mother These stories torment us and cause sadness, anxiety and depression.

In my latest podcast episode I share how I have been telling myself my own stories in regards to my recent 'failed' launch of the Embrace Fertility Method 12 week course. I talk about how I set the intention to welcome a group of 10 into this new round of the course and when towards the end of the launch it look like that was not going to happen I started telling myself lots of stories about my worth, about my ability as a therapist, my ability to market and communicate the service I offer.  So many stories that simply are not true, my worth is not dictated on how many of you decided to join the course this time round.  But it’s so hard when you work in a field that is so emotive and important to me. * I want to serve * I want to share what I know and  * Help the women who need my support.  Once I could detach my worth with the outcome I was hoping for I was able to regroup and see the opportunities that had arisen from what I was viewing as a “failed” launch. Yes I haven’t had the number signup that I had hoped for but I have: * Connected with so many of you amazing women over the past month. * Created the five day fertility mindset coaching workshop which has had such amazing feedback from so many of you. (Thank you xxx) * I have learnt so much about myself and what my true values are. * And the best bit, I am now putting together unique transformation 1 to 1 coaching and therapy packages for those women who feel that the course wasn’t right for them at this time but know they want to move forward from where they are today.  You can visit my coaching page here: https://embracefertility.co.uk/coaching/ Unique transformation packages If you benefited from watching the fertility mindset coaching videos and feel like you want to explore what is possible for you when you decide to put yourself and your well-being first, if you are one of those women who feels ready to move forward from where you are now then please do you reach out, my one-to-one support is as unique as you are, take a look at my coaching page and then book in for a free 30 minute chat.
