January 05, 2023 4 | Control Who You Become in 2023; Tackling Infertility, Conceiving and the New Year with God’s Word
Did 2022 end with you not where you hoped to be? Are you starting 2023 white-knuckling your hopes & dreams for the 12 months that lie in front of us?
I went through 6 years of ending one year not pregnant, and starting another year wondering if it was going to happen THAT year. It was emotionally difficult to see so many celebrate their pregnancies and the year they just had, when I felt so stuck in my waiting season.
In this episode, I break down exactly how we can control who we become in this New Year of 2023.

January 02, 2023 2 | The ONE Question Every Woman Experiencing Infertility is Asking & How to Answer It
The ONE Question Every Woman Experiencing Infertility is Asking: God, Why? Why Me?
After months and months of pleading these questions and God not giving me an answer, I experienced a crisis of faith. I came up to this ONE Question Every Woman Experiencing Infertility is Asking; and when the question of why seemed to go unanswered, I began to question if God was good…
In this episode, I dive into a chapter in the bible my husband shared with me 4 years into our journey, how what Jesus says in this chapter gave me freedom from the emotional chains of not having an answer to the "why" question, and 3 action steps we can all take during our waiting to avoid resentment unanswered prayers might cause.

About The Waiting Well - Infertility, Faith-based Encouragement, Trying to Conceive, Fertility

From the publisher's feed

Are you constantly asking God, why me? Why am I not getting pregnant? Why am I going through infertility?

Are you scouring the internet for answers for how to navigate infertility and trying to conceive as a Christian? Are you looking for faith-based support on your fertility journey because no one in your circle really knows what you’re going through? Do you wish you could be at peace with God, your story, and learn to see the goodness of God in your waiting season?

In this podcast, you will find faith-based encouragement and support for your TTC & infertility journey, whether you’re navigating IVF, IUI, fertility treatments or simply just waiting, you do NOT have to walk this road alone.

Hi, I’m Courtney Duinker, host of the Waiting Well Podcast… I remember how it felt five years in to our infertility story, standing in the aisle of Target right after a failed IUI treatment, holding back tears as I reached for a box of tampons when a couple who was clearly expecting came down the aisle. They were smiling as they talked while holding a new pack of diapers. My heart sank. I couldn’t help the one question bubbling to the surface as my heartache over not conceiving overwhelmed me…. will it ever be my turn? I felt forgotten, lost and wanted to tap out of the roller coaster of infertility we seemed to be stuck on.

I didn’t know how to find peace with God. I wrestled to believe or see His goodness. And at one point, my faith felt completely shattered. I felt so alone in our pain & suffering. As we faced questions around treatment options, I was so confused. What was God’s plan? What were we supposed to do? I so desperately wanted to honor God even with our fertility journey. But I wrestled with how.

This is what led to creating The Waiting Well.

A virtual “well” where TTC women can come together and be equipped with God’s Word, encouraged, challenged and ultimately supported as we learn to wait well on God’s timing.

Each week I’ll share faith-based encouragement from my own infertility journey, provide information from expert guests on navigating infertility/TTC, powerful testimonials, answer common questions with scripture and share top tips on stewarding your health through this demanding journey.

My mission is to equip you to live an “even if” life… Even if God doesn’t answer my prayer, or grant me this desire to be a mother, I will still praise Him. He is still good. And my life, my identity, my worth is a sure thing I find in Him alone.

If you are ready to take back control of your life, find peace with God, joy in the in-between spaces and thrive in your waiting season, then meet me at the well girl. We’ve got some intentional growth to do.
