Elyse Ash joins us today as we\\u2019re digging why support is so important during the fertility journey.
When I was on my fertility journey \\u2013 I thought I could do it all by myself.
Because I was a strong woman, right?
I didn\\u2019t need anyone else.
I wasn\\u2019t crying everyday.
So therefore I was fine?
But I wasn\\u2019t.
I was busy thinking about what I would do if it didn\\u2019t work.
I was worried that I would bother someone with my sad news.
I was so guarded, that I didn\\u2019t allow myself to feel all the feelings, because I thought if I was vulnerable I would crumble into a big heap and never get up again.
No one really understood what I was going through. It wasn\\u2019t their fault; they just didn\\u2019t get it.
And while I watched my friends get pregnant so easily, I pretended I was just fine.
What I know for sure\\u2026 is that support would have helped me cope in a much more positive way.
We don\\u2019t need to go through this journey alone.
It is not a sign of weakness to ask for support. It is brave.
Today I\\u2019m welcoming Elyse Ash from Fruitful Fertility. She is the founder of Fruitful Fertility a mentorship community for women going through the fertility journey.
On this episode you\\u2019ll learn:
1) Why is connection so important during infertility (especially during COVID).
2) What type of support may be more harmful than helpful (ie family, friends, social media)
3) What if we feel resistance to support (why this is a sign to dig deeper)
4) Why it is important to get support from someone on the other side of the struggle.
