Peace never came from numbers or outcomes. My body was asking to be heard, not fixed.   

Topics Discussed

The body doesn’t forget what it wasn’t given space to process.

Hello Beautiful Souls, Monica here.

This episode is not about protocols or lab results. It’s about what no one tells you when you’re moving through IVF—the way your body keeps score, not in numbers, but in tension, tightness, and silence. I share my personal journey of realizing how deeply my body had been overridden in the name of doing everything “right,” and how I finally saw the truth hiding underneath the scans and blood draws.

We’re talking about the residue. The frozen places. The subtle ways your body whispers “no” while your mind keeps saying “yes.” IVF isn’t just another dental checkup. It’s intimate, invasive, and sometimes downright disorienting. And if no one teaches you how to stay present, your nervous system quietly takes the hit.

This conversation is raw, it’s tender, and it’s probably the thing you’ve been feeling but didn’t have words for. If you’ve been moving through treatments and still feel unsettled, exhausted, or disconnected, this episode is your permission slip to stop abandoning your body. Press play and discover how everything changes when you bring your body with you.

Sovereignty isn’t about rejecting treatment. It’s about refusing to abandon yourself in it.

Timestamps:

You are not crazy for still feeling things from years ago. That’s intelligence, not dysfunction.
