This time of year brings up so many feelings…some joyful, and some overwhelming. And for those who are TTC, the end-of-year fertility anxiety can really sneak in. In this episode, I talk about the pressure December can create, why time feels so emotional on a fertility journey, and how to reconnect with trust, intuition, and your own inner knowing when everything feels “behind schedule.”

I’m sharing a personal story from my own TTC experience, as well as the beautiful pregnancies, miracles, and transformations happening inside the Brilliant Fertility community. My hope is that this episode gives you more than comfort — that it gives you a felt sense of possibility, hope, and relief.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

✨ Why the final month of the year can trigger fertility anxiety: Discover the psychology behind timelines, comparison, and the pressure we put on ourselves when December rolls around during the TTC journey.

✨ My own story of conceiving after a hard year: I share what it felt like to face a December without a positive test — and how I eventually conceived after releasing pressure and reconnecting with trust.

✨ Real fertility success stories from this season: Hear stories about pregnancy after loss, thyroid issues, and long timelines — and what helped shift their journey.

✨ The role of intuition and nervous system regulation in conception: Learn how connecting with your body, listening to your inner voice, and calling in your baby’s spirit can support your conception journey.

✨ Why consistency matters more than perfection: Understand how nutrition, sleep, acupuncture, thyroid support, vitamin D, and emotional wellbeing work cumulatively — not instantly — and why the “small things” matter.

Even if this month feels heavy, uncertain, or full of grief, you are not behind. Your body is not behind. Your timeline is not wrong. There is room for hope, healing, and magic. Stay consistent with the things that support you, give yourself grace, and remember that so much can change in the course of a few months.

If you feel called to go deeper, you can schedule a discovery call with me, explore the Brilliant Fertility Program, or simply stay connected for new offerings coming next year. Sending you so much love this December. ❤️

In this episode, I’m so excited to welcome Megan Blacksmith, a brilliant speaker, NLP Trainer, and co-founder of Zesty and the Becoming Zesty Podcast. Megan is known for helping people create meaningful change from the inside out through her work with Functional NLP — a blend of neuroscience, holistic health, and compassionate coaching.

We explore how our subconscious mind shapes everything we do — from the habits we can’t seem to break to the way we think, feel, and even experience our bodies. Megan helps us understand why so many of our struggles aren’t about motivation or willpower, but about the hidden patterns and stories we’ve picked up along the way.

Megan and I talk about how transformation begins when we stop fighting ourselves and start working with our natural patterns. She shares powerful insights on how emotions show up in the body, how to bring awareness to self-sabotage, and how real change starts with compassion, not criticism.

Ready to go deeper? I’d love to support you. Book your discovery call with me HERE.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

✨ How Subconscious Patterns Shape Our Lives: Discover why your thoughts, beliefs, and emotions hold more influence than you think.

✨ The Power of Functional NLP: Learn how Megan blends the science of the brain with functional medicine for faster, more aligned change.

✨ Why Fighting Yourself Doesn’t Work: We talk about how trying to “fix” yourself actually blocks growth — and what to do instead.

✨ Tools for Gentle Transformation: Megan shares practical ways to begin shifting patterns from a place of compassion and self-trust.

This conversation is a beautiful reminder that transformation doesn’t have to be hard — it can be gentle, loving, and deeply aligned. 💛

The new office is officially open! It’s not totally finished yet, but it already feels so full of love and new energy. I’ve been waiting to share this episode with you because it’s all about one of my favorite healing practices ever: EFT Tapping, also called the Emotional Freedom Technique.

If you’ve been feeling stuck in your fertility journey — like you’re doing everything right but still not seeing progress — this tool might be a piece that’s missing. EFT is a gentle, hands-on practice that helps calm your nervous system, regulate emotions, and release the stress that can silently affect your hormones, energy, and reproductive health.

I’ve used EFT for years in my own life and with patients, and I’ve seen how it helps women move from emotional exhaustion to true peace and clarity. Today, I’m sharing not just the “how,” but the “why” behind this incredible tool — and how you can start using it right now.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

✨Understanding EFT Tapping: Learn what EFT really is, how it works through acupressure points, and why it’s such a simple yet profound technique for emotional and physical healing.

✨From Pain to Peace — My Story: I share how EFT became part of my own healing after dealing with chronic pain and anxiety — and why it’s still my go-to tool for daily regulation and stress relief.

✨Science-Backed Healing: EFT isn’t just emotional work — studies show it helps calm the amygdala, activate the prefrontal cortex, and support long-term resilience and balance in the body.

✨The Emotional Side of Fertility: Discover how unprocessed stress, grief, and overwhelm can impact your body’s readiness to conceive, and how tapping creates emotional safety for true healing.

✨The 30-Day EFT Challenge: I’m hosting a free tapping challenge to help you explore this tool in real life — to release stress, find calm, and reconnect with yourself during your fertility journey.

Our emotions matter — not just in how we feel day to day, but in how our bodies function, heal, and create life. EFT Tapping is a reminder that emotional healing is physical healing too. I hope this episode inspires you to start tapping, feeling, and releasing what no longer serves you.
