We’re digging into how to cultivate an abundance mindset when you are TTC.
Getting stuck in a scarcity mindset on the fertility journey is easy. After all, a well-meaning physician may have told you that your AMH is too low, your FSH is too high, IVF is your only chance (and even then, there is a small chance of it working ), or that donor eggs are your only option.
This can leave us feeling:
- Stuck in comparison
- Easily triggered
- Impatient
- Panicked
- Angry
- Frustrated
- Sad
All of these emotions are entirely normal. Let that sink in. No judgment is needed.
What if we could look at our journey to conceive in a new light?
There is tons of research that displays the power of having an abundance mindset.
People with an abundance mindset are:
- Happy for others
- More likely to embrace change
- Grateful and appreciative
- Not resentful of missed opportunities because they know more are coming
- Aware that there is enough to go around and they are worthy
So how do we cultivate an abundance mindset and keep the scarcity mindset at bay?
Samantha Coffin is part of my team at Fab Fertile. She is an integral part of our Couples Coaching program – which uses functional lab testing, diet, and lifestyle changes to dramatically improve conception. If you are struggling with infertility, your body is desperately trying to tell you something. Focusing on your health will either help you get pregnant naturally, or if you do need to go to the fertility clinic, it will improve your chances of success. Samm is a mindset and wellness coach.
Samm is a wellness and mindset coach supporting people's transitions from a life full of surviving to THRIVING! Samm herself lives with celiac, Lyme, endometriosis, and PCOS.
In this episode, you'll learn:
- Why cultivating an abundance mindset matters when you are TTC.
- How to finally leave behind the scarcity mindset and visualize pregnancy success
- Five (5) practices to incorporate into your daily routine that can rewire your neurological pathways so you can tap into peace and joy during the TTC journey.
- How to let go of the panic, go with the flow (yes, releasing the PLAN can be scary, but the pathway to abundance) and understand your body wants to procreate
