In this deeply honest and emotional episode, Jen sits down with mindset coach and soon-to-be mum, Breanna May, to unpack the side of IVF that doesn’t make it onto the glossy brochures. From being labelled “high risk” after multiple cervical procedures, to navigating distrust in the medical system, fear of needles, and the grief of failed transfers, Breanna takes us inside the reality of trying to conceive when it wasn’t supposed to be this hard.Breanna shares how she moved from resisting IVF to finally surrendering to support, the mental gymnastics of reframing daily injections as “baby juice,” and the moment everything changed during her second transfer – from a shooting-star embryo on the screen to reading “pregnant” on a test while camping with her husband. She also reflects on how IVF impacted her identity, body image, relationship, and ultimately, her belief in her own body again.In this episode, you’ll hear:Breanna’s journey from “I’ll fall pregnant easily” to years of unexplained infertilityHow past cervical surgeries turned her pregnancy into “high risk” and complicated embryo transferThe mindset shift that helped her finally accept IVF and reframe injections as an act of lovePractical tips to survive the wait after transfer (and why staying busy matters)The power of surrender and belief: “Whether you think you can or you think you can’t, you’re right.”If you’re walking the IVF path, feeling like you “shouldn’t” be here or wondering how much more you can take, this conversation is a tender, validating reminder that you’re not alone – and that hope can still live inside a really hard story.Would like to access tailored 1:1 sleep support but don’t know where to start?
