    Episode 092: 3 Big Questions to Ask Yourself Before Starting IVF

    Are you truly ready to start IVF—not just physically, but emotionally and spiritually? IVF is a powerful fertility tool, but it can also require a significant investment of your time, money, energy, and emotional capacity. Before you begin, there are important questions to consider beyond simply whether you're medically eligible for treatment. In this episode, we explore 3 questions before starting IVF that can help you create a stronger foundation for the process. You'll hear why it's worth looking at areas like nutrient deficiencies, inflammation, blood sugar regulation, PCOS, endometriosis, male factor fertility, emotional support, and your own intuition before moving forward. Identify gaps in your physical fertility foundation so you can address potential factors that may be affecting your IVF experience and outcomes. Build a stronger emotional support system so you don't have to navigate the stress, uncertainty, and disappointment of fertility treatment alone. Reconnect with your intuition and spiritual foundation so you can make IVF decisions that feel aligned with you and your partner—not decisions driven solely by fear or pressure. If you're preparing to start IVF, listen to this episode to help you slow down, reconnect with yourself, and feel more grounded in your next step. For women over 30 who have tried everything to get pregnant and stay pregnant, whether you’re preparing for IVF or trying to get pregnant naturally... The Brilliant Fertility Podcast bridges the gap between scientific evidence and conscious conception, bringing you simple, actionable steps to improve your chances of getting pregnant while living a life you love in the process.   If you’re ready to explore what your unique body needs to finally get pregnant and stay pregnant, I’d love to support you.

    Episode 085: Why Life Events like Infertility Make the Masks Crumble: Releasing the Good Girl & Embodying Authenticity

    In this episode, I’m so excited to welcome Beth Clayton, a somatic practitioner and guide in feminine archetypal work. Beth supports women in breaking free from “good girl” conditioning and reclaiming their most authentic, embodied selves. We explore how healing is not just mental or emotional, but deeply somatic and embodied. Beth shares how many women reach a point where the life they’ve built no longer feels aligned, and how this often marks the beginning of awakening as the “mask” starts to crack. Beth and I talk about the phases of the feminine healing journey, from early conditioning to healing and integration. We also dive into the power of being seen, emotional truth, and how to understand your body’s responses with more compassion. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: ✨ The Good Girl Conditioning: How early experiences and societal expectations shape the identities we carry and influence our lives. ✨ The Archetypal Path of the Wild Daughter: A framework for understanding the phases of awakening, healing, and transformation. ✨ When the Mask Starts to Crack: Why life can suddenly feel misaligned and how this marks the beginning of deeper self-reclamation. ✨ Healing Beyond the Mind: Why somatic work, embodiment, and nervous system safety are essential for lasting change. ✨ Emotional Truth vs. “What Actually Happened”: How your body’s experience holds validity and why honoring it matters. ✨ The Power of Being Seen & Integration: How safe spaces support healing and what it looks like to embody your authentic self. This episode is a reminder that healing isn’t about fixing yourself. It’s about unmasking, remembering, and reclaiming who you’ve always been beneath the conditioning. There is nothing wrong with you. There is only something within you that is ready to be seen, felt, and set free. Ready to go deeper? I’d love to support you. Book your discovery call with me HERE.
