Send us a text A fertility journey can often be a confusing time of learning to let go of what we cannot control and start to listen more deeply to our intuition.

However, today, along with Laetitia Andrac, a holistic business coach, we will present to you why Feminine Energy is so important on the Fertility Journey and how it will allow you to take action o...

Send us a text How does your body know to react to the fear you have of heights or spiders even when they are no real threat? Because your mind and body are intrinsically linked. So when we have experienced BIG Traumas and Little traumas in life, the body remembers these things because they were a threat to our safety. And the unconscious mind will prioritise keeping you safe over your fertility. The fact of the matter is, the body keeps the score, not us. So in todays episode we will explore: W...

Send us a text It's time to talk about a topic that isn't talked about very much and that is Miscarriage.

Despite being VERY common, this doesn't make it any easier! This episode is broken down into two parts: 1. How to deal with a miscarriage and why it is super important 2. How to approach a new pregnancy after having had a miscarriage (or more!) In...

Send us a text When it comes to life, most people worry about time and age. "I thought I would have achieved more by now, I thought I would own a house by now, I thought I would further along in my career, met the man of my dreams, earned more money" - however you measure your 'success'. When it comes to the fertility journey, this fear of Age and Time gets even more heightened because of all the scary statistics and this ticking of a biological clock.

Send us a text What happens when tests fail to explain why pregnancy isn't happening? Well most of us just try to double down harder on google searches to find that one MAGIC thing that is going to turn it all around.

Very few times we ever think about overhauling our thought patterns, our emotional states or our perspectives.

Moreover, we have never been taught that holding on to unresolved negative emotions can cause friction in the body and push our body into states of...
