EP57: How I Recently Dealt with Immense Stress


Listen Later

I recently had one of the hardest weeks of my life this past December. I was working double time so that I could feel prepared to take a week off for the holidays (that's already stressful at any point in the year), but then my husband was diagnosed with covid and my dad was dying from covid all at the same time.

Stress, whether acute or traumatic, has affected us all. We learn that stress is bad for our body and mind, but we rarely learn healthy tactics to combat it while we are in the trenches.

When we don't practice emotional wellness during stressful times, we end up suppressing our emotions entirely, wrongly lashing out at another person who doesn't deserve it or we seek "comfort" in areas that provide that instant gratification that hurts us in the long run.

Sound familiar? We've all been there.

Thankfully, during one of my most stressful weeks of my life, I had strategies that helped me understand and process my emotions and experiences so that I didn't crumble to pieces all day, every day (note: I did breakdown, naturally, I'm human. But it could have been much worse).

On this episode of the FU Project, I go over strategies for handling immense stress that don't involve pushing past and ignoring your emotions. Tune in for actionable ways to get in tune with your reality and emotions in order to handle stressful situations, like your fertility journey, better.

What You'll Learn

  • How a balanced physiology matters when handling stress
  • What things I did correctly and poorly when handling my stress
  • Why stopping what you're doing is more important than ignoring your emotions
  • And much more!

"The journey to anything great, extraordinary, means a lot of battles, a lot of obstacles and a lot of lessons."
