Today we discuss what to do when we realize the fertility journey has started to affect our relationships. Not only do we tend to turn complex emotions like shame and blame inward on ourselves, but we also may have these intense feelings towards some of the key people in our lives. When this happens, we become further isolated and alone. When we realize this is happening, we have a choice. We can either dig in our heels and follow familiar patterns of withdrawal or conflict, or, we can pause and ask ourselves what we truly need. Once we figure out what we need, we can learn how to vulnerably share this with the inner circle of our lives and ask for what we need. We discuss how to let go of the stigma that we have to be strong all of the time, and let in the love of others. We also discuss how to widen our view so that our circle of support extends beyond just one or two people. Finding our tribe is essential to getting through this process with wholeness and dignity. We are not meant to heal alone, but in community.  If you have found this conversation valuable, book a consult call with me today at www.loveandsciencefertility.com.
