Rosanne challenges women to use the remaining 276 days of the year wisely by doing an honest retrospective of their first quarter progress and creating a plan for success. She emphasizes that most women aren't actively thinking on their fertility journey - they're stuck in thought patterns based on past experience and what others tell them.
Rosanne opens with the sobering reality that only 276 days remain in the year, challenging women to use this time wisely rather than wake up with nothing changed. She emphasizes that this isn't meant to create panic, but to connect women with their power to be the CEO of their own lives.
She explains why doing honest retrospectives on our personal lives is harder than professional evaluations - it brings us face to face with truth about whether we've kept promises to ourselves. This discomfort is exactly why the work is so powerful and necessary.
Rosanne distinguishes between women who actively think and choose their beliefs versus those stuck in thought loops based on past experience and statistics. She emphasizes that every woman for whom being a mom was nonnegotiable has found a way, with no exceptions in her 12+ years of coaching.
She provides a concrete framework for using the remaining days wisely: conducting honest retrospective work, creating a written plan for changes needed, and taking supportive action. Research shows written plans increase follow-through by 70%, making this step crucial for success.
“OMG. Can you believe that by the time you are listening to this episode, we have only two hundred and seventy six ish days left in the year?”
— Rosanne Austin▶ 1:02
There are 276 days remaining in the year, which is plenty of time to make significant changes that could lead to extraordinary results on your fertility journey.
“Doing an honest retrospective on where we're at brings us face to face with the truth in our own lives. No one likes that shit.”
— Rosanne Austin▶ 2:23
A retrospective brings you face to face with truth in your life and helps you see where you've been, learn from it, and plan strategically for moving forward rather than floating along without direction.
“I have yet to meet a woman for whom being a mom was a nonnegotiable who did not find a way, not one.”
— Rosanne Austin▶ 4:58
Yes, according to Rosanne's experience, every woman for whom being a mom was truly nonnegotiable found a way - not one exception.
“Women who win on this journey think. They think. They are resourceful, and they think.”
— Rosanne Austin▶ 5:52
Women who win on fertility journeys actively think and are resourceful, while others just parrot statistics, regurgitate negativity, and let outside circumstances dictate their state.
“Studies have shown that when you have a written plan that you can see in front of you, you are seventy percent more likely to follow through on it.”
— Rosanne Austin▶ 10:10
Studies show that when you have a written plan you can see in front of you, you are 70% more likely to follow through on it compared to keeping plans in your head.
“Floating along in your life like plankton isn't a great plan long term.”
— Rosanne Austin▶ 7:03
Yes, because not setting goals typically means you don't ever get where you want to go. Floating along like plankton isn't a great long-term plan, even though avoiding goals might feel safer.
A three-step process for conducting a fertility journey retrospective and creating a strategic plan for the rest of the year
Do the retrospective work
Reflect on what you've learned over the past 90 days. Ask yourself: Did you show up the way you promised? Where did you fall short? What do you want to celebrate? What are you proud of?
Make a plan for the next 276 days
Decide what changes you need to make. Consider if it's time to get proper mindset training instead of trying to fumble through on your own. Write out your plan - studies show you're 70% more likely to follow through when it's written.

Time is a nonrenewable resource and the choices you make today have a ripple effect - it's time to pivot if what you're doing isn't working
Robin was on her fertility journey for 15 years before finding success, demonstrating that extraordinary results require extraordinary commitment and willingness to change course when needed.
Most of us are not thinking - we're stuck in patterns, routines, and habits based on the past rather than actively and consciously choosing our thoughts and beliefs
Rosanne has coached women across six continents for 12+ years and observes that women who win on their fertility journey think actively and are resourceful, unlike those who just parrot statistics and regurgitate negativity.
Every woman for whom being a mom was a nonnegotiable found a way - not one exception
Rosanne has coached women ages 28-54 across six continents for 12+ years and has never met a woman who was truly committed to becoming a mom who didn't find a way to make it happen.
You can be your own guarantee for success because there are no external guarantees on this journey
Rosanne conceived naturally at 43 after years of treatment failure by changing her mindset, and women in her program consistently beat statistical odds when they master their thinking.
When you have a written plan you can see in front of you, you are 70% more likely to follow through on it
Studies show that written plans dramatically increase follow-through rates, and Rosanne applies this research to help women create concrete fertility journey strategies rather than hoping things will work out.
If you have a big dream and a big call on your life, you cannot afford to play small
Robin's 15-year fertility journey demonstrates that when being a mom is part of your life's purpose, you must be extraordinary and wiser than those who give up at the first sign of resistance.
Your thoughts and beliefs are dictating everything you do or don't do - it's through your actions or inactions that you get a result
Rosanne demonstrates this principle through her own success conceiving naturally at 43 and through women in her Fearlessly Fertile Method program who change their results by changing their mindset.
You must exert discipline over the part of you that wants to be lazy and wallow in the shit pit
Rosanne spent time in the 'shit pit' herself during her fertility journey but created incredible success by getting disciplined, and she's coached women all over the world to do the same.
Two women can be trying to conceive - one with a strong mindset and one who parrots statistics and regurgitates negativity - which one is setting herself up for success?
Rosanne's 12+ years coaching women across six continents shows that those who master their thinking consistently outperform those who focus on statistics and allow circumstances to dictate their state.

EP288: The Break Glass In Case of Fertility Freakout Episode
The most powerful episode to save for your darkest fertility moments - Rosanne's fierce wake-up call that will snap you out of despair and back into your power.
Successful women allow themselves to be the woman who beats the odds before it actually happens - they live their journey now in the way a woman who has beaten the odds would
Women traveling from the UK and across the US to attend Rosanne's Boise retreat exemplify this by investing in themselves, taking time off work, and prioritizing their fertility goals despite potential excuses about timing or money.
When a woman allows herself to be the woman that beats the odds, she empowers herself to transform her results through thinking differently, showing up differently, and creating new outcomes
This follows Newton's third law of motion - for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Women who booked flights and committed to the retreat had to be that woman when they said yes, which guaranteed they would actually get to Boise.
Mindset directly impacts fertility outcomes — fear-based thinking can sabotage pregnancy while faith-based thinking supports conception
