Because “just relax” is the least helpful advice you’ve ever received.

Trying to conceive isn’t just a hard season; it can consume you. It leaves you bouncing between hope and heartbreak, all while trying to navigate decisions about your future, your body, and your family.

It is incredibly difficult to explain to people what it feels like to live your life in two-week increments. Your existence now revolves around ovulation cycles and the stomach dropping anxiety of logging into the patient portal. You’re taping dollar store tests together on a piece of paper to compare how dark the lines are day by day - or hour by hour - and feeling crazy for doing it. Your body doesn’t feel like yours anymore; it feels like a project you are constantly trying to manage, optimize, and fix. 

You’re not crazy. You’re exhausted, and you’re sad. It is a deeply isolating thing to be grieving the absence of someone who isn't here, or a path you aren’t getting to take. It’s so easy to lose sight of the person you used to be. You might dread social media, pull away from friends, or feel a wave of jealousy at every baby announcement. You wonder if this will last forever, and if you will ever feel normal again.

Yes, you will feel normal again. But feeling normal doesn't mean forcing yourself to stay positive or pretend everything is fine. It means getting to a place where this journey no longer takes over every thought and every part of your identity. I’m here to help you protect your relationships from the strain of this process, better hold the weight of what you're carrying, gain clarity around decision making, and begin to feel more like yourself.
