281// How to Manage Anxiety During the Two-Week Wait: Fertility, TTC & Emotional Resilience, with Dr. Jane Levesque


Listen Later

Do you know what the hardest part of the fertility journey is for so many women?

 

It’s the two week wait.

 

That stretch of time after ovulation, when you’re hoping this will finally be the month… and battling TTC anxiety every single day until you know if you’re pregnant.

 

If you’ve ever been there, you know the two week wait can feel like two years. The questions, the Googling, the second-guessing every cramp or symptom. It’s exhausting. And it can make you feel like you’re losing trust in your own body.

 

That’s why, in today’s episode, I’m sitting down with Dr. Jane Levesque, a naturopathic doctor who specializes in fertility, women’s hormones, and supporting you in the emotional side of TTC. 

 

Together, we’re unpacking practical ways to handle two week wait anxiety, build emotional resilience, and reconnect with your body while you’re trying to conceive.

 

Whether you’re in the thick of the two week wait right now, or just want to prepare yourself for the ups and downs of TTC, this episode will give you the clarity and encouragement you need to stop feeling broken and start feeling empowered.

 

P.S. Not TTC but trying to manage anxiety around healing your gut, autoimmune flares, or chronic issues like mold? This episode is ALSO for you! Listen in to learn Dr. Jane's TOP TIPS on managing anxiety that applies to all things health!
