Hey beautiful, Monica here! 🌈✨ Let me take you on a little journey through today's episode, where we dive deep into the world of fertility, but with a twist. You see, it's not just about the end goal; it's about the whole adventure. Imagine we're mixing up a cake – not just any cake, but your dream family cake. And guess what? It's not just about that cherry on top. Oh no, it's about the cake, the frosting, and all those delicious ingredients that make the journey so rich and rewarding.
We chatted about how fertility is more than just a physical journey; it's a heart and soul adventure. From taking a holistic approach to looking beyond our lady bits for answers, we explored how to empower ourselves, listen to our intuition, and maybe, just maybe, let go of that tight grip of control we all love to hold onto. It's about becoming the conscious mama you were born to be, filled with joy, surrender, and a sprinkle of magic.
And let's not forget about the laughter, the tears, and the growth that comes from facing our fertility journey head-on, with a big ol' dose of hope and a side of sass. Because, at the end of the day, it's about creating the family of your dreams, in a way that feels right for you. So, grab a cup of tea, kick back, and let's embark on this journey together. Because, darling, you're not alone, and the best is yet to come. 💖
"I just became the best version of myself. I mean, I know it's a journey, so I'm still working on it, but to date at that point, I was like, okay, I feel good, I feel calm. And I think that that was just very, very important for me to kind of just go through that."
