Ali shares her journey from managing lupus and irregular cycles to becoming pregnant naturally after just two weeks of mindset work. She reveals how building her 'bump squad' of support and learning to think like a successful woman transformed her fertility journey.
Ali· natural· Baby on the wayBefore
Doubting herself, telling boring stories about never being meant for motherhood, feeling like her body was broken
Key Shift
Started gratitude practice and reframed failed cycles as opportunities rather than failures
After
Determined, grateful, trusting her instincts, and committed to showing up fully for her fertility journey
Ali's journey began as a collegiate volleyball player who was diagnosed with systemic lupus at age 20. She spent years learning to manage her autoimmune condition through diet, lifestyle changes, and working closely with supportive medical professionals.
Ali assembled a comprehensive support team including doctors, nutritionists, and acupuncturists, but realized something was missing. When she discovered Rosanne's work, she recognized that mindset was the critical component she needed to complete her fertility strategy.
After fully committing to mindset work, Ali conceived naturally just two weeks into the program. Her rapid success demonstrates how quickly the universe responds when you become the woman who says hell yes to transformation.
Ali continued her mindset work throughout pregnancy, applying the same tools to navigate pregnancy fears and anxieties. Her story illustrates that getting pregnant is just the beginning of a journey that continues to benefit from mental and emotional support.
“I have learned how to be so extremely grateful for this journey, not only with lupus, but the fertility journey as well because I have grown so much as a person”

“it was about two weeks into our work together when I actually found out that I was pregnant”
— Rosanne Austin▶ 18:06
Mindset work can impact fertility very quickly. Ali conceived naturally just two weeks after starting her mindset transformation work, showing that when you fully commit to the inner work, results can come rapidly.
“I have been building my bump squad. I have been getting all these people on my team, and I have my doctors, I have my family, I have my friends, I have my nutritionist who has been a godsend”
— Ali▶ 9:51
A bump squad is your comprehensive team of support people who help you on your fertility journey, including doctors, specialists, coaches, family, and friends. The key is ensuring you have both physical and emotional support covered.
“if it's not this time, that means I just have another opportunity the next time. And it's everything is gonna be okay no matter what. And I had never thought about it that way before. It had always been, oh, another failure”
— Ali▶ 17:16
Instead of viewing each unsuccessful cycle as a failure, reframe it as another opportunity to succeed. This shift from 'another failure' to 'another opportunity' can dramatically change your fertility experience.
“I learned a lot about being grateful, and that for me was the first that was, like, the starting point for me. As soon as I started focusing on things and experiences and just moments in my life that I've been grateful for, it was easy for me to to see things in a different way”
— Ali▶ 16:25
Gratitude practice can be a powerful starting point for fertility mindset transformation. It helps you see your journey differently and shift from negative thought patterns to more empowering perspectives.
“there's about another forty weeks we gotta go. Right? Like, there's a there's an additional set of weeks that comes after that initial, like, positive pregnancy test”
— Rosanne Austin▶ 22:05
Yes, absolutely. Pregnancy brings its own fears and anxieties that benefit from continued mindset work. Getting pregnant is just the beginning of a 40-week journey that also requires mental and emotional support.
