In this solo episode, I'm sharing my personal journey of how I was able to cancel my fertility specialist appointment and conceive naturally by focusing on mindset and energetics. Elaborating on three key strategies: releasing pressure, tapping into feminine energy, and finding joy in the present moment.
A Journey of Trust and Release
To set the stage, when I started to struggle on my fertility journey, I was desperate to conceive naturally and avoid a fertility specialist's intervention. The idea of undergoing extensive testing and potentially finding no clear answers was something I feared. This pathway didn’t align with my inner needs, so I shifted my focus internally, which led to my daughter's conception. Below are the top three mindset and energetic shifts that made this miracle possible.
1. Releasing Self-Pressure
The first and most significant change was releasing the immense pressure I placed on myself to conceive. Initially, I was obsessed with the timing of my fertile window, counting down the days past ovulation, and eagerly waiting to take a pregnancy test. This constant state of anticipation had me feeling like I was putting my life on hold, checking for results in two-week increments. The tension and constriction in my body resembled a kinked hose blocking the flow of energy. To combat this, I decided to release the pressure to conceive right away. I stopped forcing, allowed space for my body, and trusted that becoming a mother was meant for me because it was a deep desire of my heart. I understood that my role was not to control the how or when of conception but to trust in its natural occurrence.
2. Embracing Feminine Energy
The second transformational shift involved tapping into my feminine energy of receptivity and openness. It's important to note that both masculine and feminine energies exist within us all, regardless of gender. I had been operating heavily in my masculine energy, characterized by logic, action, and control—traits that served me well in school and my career but left little space for creativity and relaxation. My fertility journey mirrored this approach, full of endless Googling, checklists, and a belief that more effort would yield results. But fertility doesn’t work this way. I needed to balance my empowered masculine energy (which provides safety) with a nurturing feminine essence to create a space for receptivity and creativity. This meant creating safe, playful spaces for my feminine side to flourish, which felt more aligned and allowed me to surrender and trust the process.
3. Practicing Present-Moment Joy
Finally, I allowed myself to enjoy the present moment. Many women struggling with fertility express that they cannot feel joy or fulfillment until they conceive. This mindset puts overwhelming pressure on the body and baby. Instead, I chose to cultivate feelings of joy and happiness in the now, recognizing that self-worth and fulfillment were not contingent on getting pregnant. This shift was crucial, as I wanted to enjoy life’s experiences fully rather than waiting for a future milestone.
Implementing the Mindset Shifts For A Fertility Breakthrough
When I implemented these shifts, the month I conceived was unexpectedly serene. Amidst travel and minimal expectations, I conceived. It was an evident breakthrough that separated force from flow and control from surrender. This wasn’t just my experience; many women I work with have had similar “illogical conceptions” where medical explanations fell short, but their embodied feminine energy manifested in miraculous pregnancies.
