Can Mindset Help Improve Your Fertility? | Kezia Ashley Okafor

54 minutes

Often when we are going through the infertility journey we think that all the stress and worry will go away once we get pregnant or after we have children, but in reality that stress can become more difficult afterwards.

Which is why it is so critical that we deal with our mindset and our stress now.

In this episode with Kezia Okafor, we dive into all the elements of the mind that try to play havoc with our infertility journey along with the rest of our life.

We think that having a child is the answer and solution, and while that is what we strive for, our ultimate goal is to become a better and more whole person.

That’s why it’s so important for us to take heed of how to better ourselves on this journey.

We talk about the ups and downs of navigating the mental space, dealing with friends and family who don’t understand what we are going through, and how to stand up to doctors when you know what they are telling you is wrong.

Topics Discussed:

How no one talks about the mental pain when you are being treated for infertility.

Why strengthening your mindset matters so much.

Why you have to deal with your stress now rather than later.

How to get to the point where you are okay whether you have a child or not.

Quotes:

“Infertility can be a process where you discover yourself.”

“You get to the point where you feel like there’s got to be a different way.”

“Fertility is fickle.”

“There is no guarantee.”

Anything written or said about health and diet are my opinions, that I have formed over the years, through trial and error, study, reading, listening and observing. What worked for me, may not work for you. I am not a doctor, nutritionist or dietician and all medical advice should be gotten from a qualified professional. Product recommendations are based on what I used during my infertility journey or wish I had.
