Are you struggling to tell others how you're feeling? Do you keep putting your head down, delving into hard work, only to look up and feel an isolating sadness? And even though you know (in theory) that it’s okay not to be okay, and that it’s okay to ask for help, you just can’t seem to do it for yourself? I also was taught that it was my responsibility, and mine alone, to make myself feel better. But the hard truth is that while it takes strength to push through on your own, it also takes a special kind of strength to accept help.

Are you on a fertility journey? Have you experienced obstacles along the way? Perhaps nothing is as disempowering as struggling with fertility. For many of us, issues with fertility mark the first time that we have wanted our bodies to do something that they seem not capable of doing. Struggles with fertility are traumatic experiences. Maybe we feel removed from friends with children, siblings with children, or parents who may not understand. Is it any wonder why we may be struggling?

Do you find yourself making time for everything and everyone, but find it challenging to take the time to focus on your own compassionate care? So many of us prioritize the loving care of our family and friends while neglecting to tend to ourselves - as though we are our own most treasured other. Too often we allow our overly harsh inner voice of self-judgment to serve as our most oppressive critic, draining us of the momentum needed to manifest our fullest potential and the life we truly desire. Unleash the potential of your best self and stop settling for the comforts of habit or the stagnation of fear. You are worth it!
