There’s nothing worse.  Like literally… nothing. Here you are doing EVERYTHING you’re supposed to be doing: eating healthy, tracking your cycle, keeping your stress as low as possible and reading- or listening- up on #AllTheThings… and yet, there it is AGAIN! So much for that stress. It’s almost like it’s mocking you- telling you you’re not worthy <<----- Newsflash: NOTHING could be further from the truth. Still, it hurts. Stings. Breaks you down and sometimes makes you want to throw in the towel. Trust me, after 10+ years in this sacred space, I’ve seen and heard it all- and I promise, you’re not alone. On today’s episode of the How to Get Healthy and Get Pregnant podcast, I’m going over the 5 steps to overcoming disappointment after a BFN: ---> Yes, it is similar to the stages of grief- and owning those emotions is essential! ---> I’m going to open up about some of my own struggles in life and how I overcame those moments of being ready to quit… ---> And I have a freebie to help you outline the emotions you go through to help you walk through to the other side quicker and more effectively than letting it continue to build up and break you down. Will the BFN ever get easier? Unfortunately not- but that doesn’t mean we give up our dream of starting a family, right? Links mentions: Private FB Group Episode 74 Freebie
