The reality check you might need…

1 June 2023

This week, we’re getting real and telling it like it is. Let’s talk about the difference between keeping it real with yourself and spinning those self-made stories. We all know how we can convince ourselves of anything, but let’s face it, that doesn’t always get us closer to our goals. So, let’s dive into a few key areas of your fertility journey where being brutally honest and consistently awesome can make all the difference!

Caffeine and Alcohol: To Sip or Not to Sip? Yep, I’m calling you out on this one! Take a good, hard look at your commitment to cutting down on caffeine and alcohol. Did you go all-in and make a bad-ass lifestyle change, or did you pull a one-week wonder and slip back into your old habits? It’s time to face the music and be honest about what’s truly best for your fertility game.

Supplements: Are You a Rockstar or a Forgetful Rebel? Let’s get down to business, shall we? Are you consistently rocking that supplement routine, or are you occasionally giving it the cold shoulder? I get it; life can get hectic. But staying consistent with those little fertility superheroes can make a world of difference in supporting your overall health and fertility. So, get them out of the cupboard and take them every single day. It’s not hard!

Now, let’s serve up some tips on how to stay consistent throughout your incredible fertility journey:

a. Goals: Get Specific! Set your sights on the prize, my friend! Clearly define those fertility goals and create a plan to make them a reality. Having a crystal-clear target in your crosshairs will keep you motivated, focused, and ready to conquer. If you need help – get in touch, this is the first thing I do with my paying clients.

b. Surround Yourself with Fertility Warriors! You need a tribe that speaks your language, baby! Find your people, those who understand and support your fertility goals. Join forces with like-minded warriors in kick-ass communities or support groups. Together, you’ll slay the challenges and celebrate the victories. Here’s the link to my amazing group – but be warned – if you don’t like swearing/crass jokes/stupid memes, it might not be for you 🙂

c. Track Your Awesomeness: Write It Down, Own It! – Time to unleash your inner fertility detective. Keep tabs on your efforts and progress. Track your actions, outcomes, and anything else that makes you feel like a fertility superstar. It’s all about gaining insights and identifying areas where you can crank up that consistency. My clients are made to track like MI5 and I make no apologies for this, although I do give them all of the tools and training they need to make it work. Having solid data to review and use to plan is GOLD!

d. Pop That Champagne (Or Sparkling Water): Celebrate the Wins! It’s time to break out the confetti and celebrate like a boss! Acknowledge and embrace those small victories along the way. Reward yourself for your consistency, because damn it, you deserve it. Confidence and motivation will be your trusty sidekicks.

e. Love Yourself, Damn It!: Fertility journeys can be a whirlwind of emotions. Cut yourself some slack, sister! Show yourself some love, practice self-compassion, and let go of the guilt. Minor setbacks are just bumps on the road to your ultimate growth and success.

We hope these nuggets of wisdom ignite your fire and keep you real and consistent on this mind-blowing fertility journey. You’re never alone in this wild ride. The Fertility Mentor community has your back, cheering you on, wiping away your tears and stamping our feet to your rhythm when needed.
