40 and Infertile - A Fertility Podcast for the 40 and older

Episode 44: ASK THE EXPERT & WARRIOR STORY with Dr. Flora Sinha, MD @drflorasinha - Secondary Infertility and the Benefits of Mindset Work During Infertility Treatment


Listen Later

Today, we have Dr. Flora Sinha @drflorasinha.  She is an internal medicine physician, mindset coach, and fellow infertility warrior.

Dr. Flora Sinha shares with us today about her own infertility struggles and how that struggle led to her finding mindset work and how that can help her with her infertility and other life challenges.  

She struggles with secondary infertility and we talk about that unique experience.  We have a very real and candid discussion about being in this space and some of the dark places we can go and where mindset work might fit in.  

Thank you to Dr. Sinha for being so open with her feelings.  If you like someone who likes to keep it real and is no nonsense.  She’s the one for you!  If you’ve been struggling with being in this infertility space, what she has to say might help you better cope with our challenges.  I’ll link in the show notes some other helpful episodes to consider also!  

Okay, here we go.
