Before joining FFW
T.G. was emotionally and mentally devastated - carrying deep anger and hostility in her body and mind after experiencing an ectopic pregnancy. She had lost significant weight following a pre-diabetic diagnosis and was physically weakened from methotrexate medication. With her immune system compromised and her emotional state fragile, she felt isolated in her grief. Her husband was processing the loss differently and didn't want to talk about it, leaving T.G. with no one to turn to. She was intensely negative, filled with a sense of urgency, and desperately needed support to manage her overwhelming emotions.
Motivation for joining FFW
T.G. decided to join Fertile from Within because she needed someone to talk to about her grief and loss - a safe space where she could process the devastation of her ectopic pregnancy. She was hoping to find more peace in her body and mind, and to "reel back in" from the negative spiral she was caught in. After starting with private coaching sessions, Lauren invited her to the Inner Circle community, which T.G. welcomed because she recognized how much she needed connection with others who understood her struggle - something she had lost after COVID shutdowns.
The FFW Experience
T.G.'s journey through Fertile from Within wasn't without resistance. After her first successful IVF implantation, she had become rigidly attached to the strict protocols she believed had worked - eliminating gluten, dairy, and soy. When Lauren encouraged her to consider letting go of the dietary strictness, T.G. thought she was "crazy." Why abandon what had worked before?
The resistance intensified after two failed egg retrievals. T.G. remembers one live coaching session where she was "resisting everything" Lauren had to say. She didn't want to feel joy. She didn't want to try anything new. She was just upset about her situation, clinging tightly to her hopes and expectations for how things should unfold.
But through the community aspect of the program - connecting with other women who shared her struggle and truly understood her feelings - T.G. began to soften. The live coaching sessions, where Lauren came prepared with thoughtful topics and challenging questions, pushed her to genuinely examine her situation and consider new perspectives. Lauren challenged her "just enough" to help break old thinking patterns without overwhelming her, creating space for new beliefs to form.
The Transformation
As a result of Fertile from Within, T.G. is now 25 weeks and 6 days pregnant - but the transformation goes far beyond the pregnancy itself. Through the community support, shared struggles, and consistent coaching, T.G. was able to let go of the "tight grip" she had on how she wanted everything to work out. She became less stressed and found more joy and peace in her daily life. She learned to enjoy her daughter and husband with a new attitude: "If it happens, it happens; if not, then it's okay." Most importantly, T.G. discovered she could love her life and feel genuine joy with what she already had, regardless of the outcome of her next IVF process. The anger and hostility that once consumed her has been replaced with peace, belief in her body and mind, and trust in her fertility journey.
“I would definitely recommend Lauren’s programs. She has put a lot of time, energy, and thought into her coaching and the structure of her programs. I would encourage you with the community aspect so you don’t feel alone. Additionally, I would encourage you with the coaching aspect - Lauren challenges you just enough to help break you out of old thinking patterns and allows you to create new thoughts of belief. Belief in your body and mind and fertility.”
