IVF Failed You  - The "So Now What?" Podcast

Childless, Not Less: Happiness Without Justification


Listen Later

If you’ve ever felt like happiness is something you have to earn—as if the universe is compensating you for the pain of infertility—this episode is for you.

In this special episode of The So Now What? Podcast, I’m giving you a sneak peek into my new book So Now What?, releasing on April 2nd. I’ll be reading a powerful excerpt from Chapter 13, Choosing to Love Your Life After Infertility and Redefining Your Worth, where I challenge the belief that joy is a consolation prize.

You deserve to feel good. You deserve to experience happiness, not as an apology for what didn’t happen, but as something you’ve created for yourself. Your life isn’t a backup plan—it’s yours to fully embrace.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

✨ How to break free from the compensation mindset—joy is not a reward for suffering ✨ Why you don’t have to justify your happiness to anyone, including yourself ✨ How to retrain your brain to accept and create joy without condition ✨ A powerful challenge to help you own your happiness today
