This episode will be relatable to so many who have decided to conceive and live a fast paced - hustle bustle kind of life. When life is busy, and you have a demanding job, adding fertility testing and treatments can add to the craziness of it all.
Living and maintaining this high level of output and being used to succeeding with hard work - it can be a wake up call when the things that you’re used to doing usually reap reward, but then not in the fertility world.
In this episode I talk with an alumna student who shares her story of going from her corporate job and busy lifestyle to relinquishing some control and learning how to slow down. Seeing that fertility does not abide by the same rules as most of the other parts of her life.
Here’s what we talk about in this episode:
The importance of comfy yoga spaces!
What happens when your ‘perfect family building plan’ doesn’t happen
Talking about infertility with friends - the stigma
The overwhelm of information on things to restrict when trying to conceive
Finding fertility yoga
Learning how to slow down and let go of some control
Fertility Yoga’s benefits from a student perspective
Politely Declining invitations
Social Media - using discernment & remembering that you need to digest everything
Seeking support beyond the medical realm
Relationships with partners and how as the person carrying the child you are the educator and your partner defers to you about everything
