Infertility trauma is absolutely real and something we don't talk about enough. In today's episode, I spoke with the incredible Naomi Woolfson of Embrace Fertility all about this exact topic.

Naomi and I have been friends for quite some time but one of the reasons I was so keen to get her onto the podcast was because as a trauma-trained infertility therapist, she is trained in a technique called EDMR - which we chatted about in depth.

Some of the things we spoke about were:

•What is trauma?

•How can we recognise it?

•What are the repercussions of trauma?

•How can we heal from trauma?

•The work we can do ourselves

•The work we can do with a trauma-informed therapist.

•What are the next steps you can take to investigate this area further?
