ivf support

Having coaches, guides, and mentors in our lives will exponentially support us in our growth. It's something I strongly believe in, and I want to introduce you to one of mine! 

My next guest is someone very near and dear to me. She is a powerful space holder and has supported me immensely this past year.  Her name is Andrea Arledge, and she is a Soulful Success Coach & shadow coach for leaders on a mission.  She left a 16-year nursing career to pursue the work she does now. She is also a Numerologist, Reiki Master Teacher and certified copywriter. 

We cover A LOT in this conversation --  we talk about the ways she has supported me in being called higher, diving into shadow work (including our golden shadow), because it’s important to honor the light AND the dark. There are so many  nuggets to support you as you’re navigating thru your fertility path in this chat. 

There are some parts of this conversation that made me cry --- the gifts from my mom, and just how blessed I feel to have mentors and coaches like her in my life – she’s a true soul sister. 

I can’t say enough good things about her --- and something I want to share is Andrea is going to be the guest expert I’m bringing in for our very first Moon Magic and Manifestation call happening in January!! 

I can’t wait ---- You’ll have to Be THERE to experience her magic firsthand.

Hello hello, welcome back if you are a regular listener and welcome if this is your first time listening.

I am so thrilled to bring you this episode.  You may know Lisa Messenger as one of the most incredible entrepreneurs not just in Australia but globally and she did this before entrepreneurship was even a thing!  She’s shared the stage with the likes of Richard Branson and has had Sarah Jessica Parker, Ryan Gosling and Jamie Oliver to name a few on the cover of her magazine, Collective Hub.  

But what no one knew, was behind the scenes of her successful businesses, she was battling an 8 year-long infertility journey.  18 rounds of IVF and the emotional and physical rollercoaster that comes with that.

Lisa has only very recently opened up about her journey, so I feel incredibly privileged to have her as a guest.  I felt like we could’ve talk for hours, and I simply appreciate her openness and honesty it was just like two girlfriends having a chat.  

I am sure you will get so much out of our conversation, from her experiences and tips to the two things that I really want you to takeaway, the strength of mindset and of hope.

As always please feel free to reach out and connect with me on Instagram or LinkedIn (links below).

Hello hello everyone, I do hope your start to 2023 is a place of positivity.  And if you aren’t quite feeling all the positive feels, or if you are but nervous that it may be short lived, this episode is for you.  

I speak with Louise Siwicki, who after battling infertility for 6 years is now a holistic fertility hypnotherapist and coach.  Lou talks with me about the power of the mind, body connection and the importance of having the right belief system during your fertility journey and finding joy alongside it.  

I’m really excited to share this episode with you.

The New Year can bring up feelings of sadness, regret and disappointment about what you didn’t achieve in the year BUT it is also a time of excitement, hope and wonder.  

The mix of emotions are totally normal – nonetheless - to set yourself up for what is to come in 2023, let's create and hold onto all the positive feelings.  Let's channel those feelings into 2023.  

This meditation will allow you to recap on both the highs and lows of 2022 and center yourself for the year ahead of you.

It’s December and we know what that means right? The most wonderful time of the year really isn’t for someone with infertility or who has recently experienced a loss.  Events, get-togethers, Christmas, Christmas wishes, New Year parties and new year resolutions mean reflecting on all that you did this year to have a baby and you are no closer to it.  

I get it.  I have felt this pain, many times.  So, in this episode let’s talk about how to survive this time of year.  There are certain things you can do, and avoid, to ensure that you look after yourself and head into 2023 with clarity, calmness and compassion for yourself.  

The podcast is back!!
The old me would probably have apologised for being away for months and not recording, but where I am now, I am not going to apologise.  In fact, I am going to be unapologetically me.  Because, the truth is, I needed a break.  I needed a break from the podcast and from all things infertility.  Sometimes, we just need a break.  
So in this episode (of a brand-new season) I give an explanation of why I needed a break, what this last year has been like and how irrespective of everything and losing my identity, I am finally figuring out who I am.  
I am so excited to bring you many, many, many more episodes and share stories of ordinary women who have become extraordinary through their journeys.

In this episode I speak with Cassandra Banks, Principal of CB Legal Coffs Harbour & Senior Vice President of The Law Society of NSW.  Cassandra shares her story of infertility, miscarriage and IVF and gives some real insight into the challenges of experiencing all of these when living in a regional area.  She also shares some very useful tips for women who are in the same situation.

This week I have the pleasure of interviewing Kristin Dillensnyder-  IVF coach and 3 time IVF warrior that experienced 3 different outcomes… one cycle that worked, one cycle that didn’t and one cycle that ended in a miscarriage. As a certified life coach, Kristin became the person she needed during the hardest parts of infertility so other women who need IVF to grow their families will not be as consumed by their infertility as she was. In this episode, we talk about what it looks like to make the decision to move forward with IVF or to try again after an unsuccessful cycle and how to “fill you cup”  after feeling depleted and consumed by your infertility journey. Kristin shares with us what she would go back and tell herself as she was going through IVF for the first time, and also shares so many practical tips and tools you can implement in your own life- right now- wherever you are in your journey. Kristin shared so much wisdom and hope, but I think my favorite thing she said was, “It’s really important to believe that just because it hasn’t happened doesn’t mean it can’t happen.” Thank you for being here, friend. I hope this episode sparks courage and ignites hope for you in the week ahead. 

March was Endometriosis Awareness Month and because I like to be different, I am releasing this episode in April since it's important to talk about this stuff all the time. 

In this Ep I speak with the fabulous Sarah Maree Cameron -  an endo warrior-  and a woman of many talents – she is radio host on MMM Melbourne, a TV host and ground announcer for Richmond football club, an actor and comedian and she still finds time to be an Ambassador for both Endometriosis Australia and the Australia Cervical Cancer Foundation.  

I loved our chat - SMC is raw and honest, talking about her experiences of living with endo and about stepping away from your ego and asking for help.  We dive into what she has learnt and some really practical tips.   It really is like the pep talk you might need if you are living with the chronic illness.

This is part 2 of my chat with Alice Almeida where we delve into what broke her during IVF, the challenges women face with infertility in the workplace and her top tips for those undergoing IVF.  I am so pleased to say that just two days after Alice and I spoke she gave birth to a beautiful baby girl and all are doing well. So, here’s part 2….
