Hemorrhaging with pear-sized fibroids, devastated after miscarriage, considering IVF
Key Shift
Trusted intuition over medical fear, combined mindset work with naturopathic care
After
Empowered advocate for herself and baby, walking by faith through pregnancy challenges
Maria discovered pear-sized fibroids just as she was planning marriage and babies with the man of her dreams. After hemorrhaging for a month and needing myomectomy surgery, she faced the question of whether she could still become a mother naturally. Despite the medical challenges, she maintained her lifelong vision of birthing her own child.
When faced with IVF after a traumatic miscarriage, Maria trusted her intuition that the clinic felt 'cold and steel' and chose naturopathic care instead. Her decision to address root causes like thyroid issues and gut health - things fertility doctors hadn't mentioned - proved to be the turning point in her journey.
Maria's conception came the month she stopped 'hunting down' her husband for perfectly timed intercourse and surrendered to divine timing. She had been making space for her baby physically and energetically, practicing the vibration of being a mother while taking aligned health actions through naturopathic work.
At 23 weeks pregnant, Maria faced fear-based medical advice about her baby's weight that contradicted established literature. She demonstrated the ongoing need for mindset work during pregnancy by advocating for herself, seeking multiple opinions, and choosing faith over unnecessary stress and monitoring.

— Maria▶ 6:20
Yes, natural conception is possible after fibroids and surgery. Maria had pear-sized fibroids removed through myomectomy and conceived naturally at 34 by addressing root causes through naturopathic care.
“we went into the office and I was just I said, this is just not this isn't it. This is so cold and steel”
— Maria▶ 8:33
Trust your intuition - if the clinic or approach feels wrong energetically, honor that feeling. Maria walked out of an IVF consultation because it felt cold and steel, choosing naturopathy instead.
“if it leads with fear, reject it... it's not of something higher. It's low vibrational”
— Rosanne Austin▶ 20:33
Advocate for yourself by asking questions, seeking multiple opinions, and rejecting fear-based advice that doesn't align with facts. Trust your knowledge of your own body over machines.
“It took five months of of work with a naturopath. And even at four months, I was bawling my eyes out... The next month, it worked”
— Maria▶ 45:31
Maria worked with a naturopath for 5 months addressing food sensitivities, gut health, and thyroid issues before conceiving naturally. The key is patience with the healing process while taking consistent action.
“that miscarriage lasted probably felt like two months of miscarrying because the DNC didn't work... we tried for another full year before I said, alright, God, I surrender again”
— Maria▶ 7:22
Yes, Maria experienced a traumatic miscarriage that lasted nearly two months, then struggled for another full year before conceiving naturally through mindset work and holistic health approaches.
“I started walking in them before they arrived... I've moved my bed over already for the bassinet... I walk in it as if it's already here”
— Maria▶ 43:59
Manifestation means acting as if your desire is already here while taking aligned action. Maria made space for baby items, practiced being in the energy of motherhood, and combined faith with practical health steps.
Maria's approach to building confidence in intuitive decision-making
Start with lower-stakes decisions
Practice trusting your gut with smaller choices like waiting for the right office chair at a thrift store instead of buying new, building confidence in divine timing.
Notice when medical advice leads with fear
Pay attention to how treatment options make you feel energetically - if something feels cold, sterile, or fear-based, honor that feeling.
Seek multiple opinions when something feels off
When medical advice doesn't align with your knowledge or other sources, call other practitioners for confirmation before accepting fear-based recommendations.
Stay present when under attack
Recognize that increased challenges often signal something good is coming - maintain faith and focus on your vision rather than getting pulled into drama.
Trust your intuition when medical advice leads with fear - if it doesn't feel right for you, reject it
Maria walked out of an IVF clinic despite having pear-sized fibroids and a miscarriage because it felt cold and sterile, choosing naturopathic care instead and conceiving naturally at 34.
Don't abdicate your authority to machines or people who don't know what you're made of
At 23 weeks pregnant, Maria rejected ultrasound technicians trying to create fear about her baby's weight, calling four different OBs who confirmed one pound at 23 weeks is normal.
Mindset work doesn't stop once you're pregnant - it only ramps up throughout the journey
Maria had to actively reject fear-based medical advice at 23 weeks pregnant, demonstrating mindset is a conscious daily decision throughout pregnancy, not just until conception.
Walking by faith means taking action while trusting the process, not just waiting passively
Maria worked with a naturopath for 5 months, did acupuncture, changed her diet, and took supplements while maintaining faith - she conceived the month she surrendered hunting down her husband for perfectly timed intercourse.
You must be in the vibration of what you desire to receive it - act as if it's already here
Maria moved her bed to make room for the bassinet before conceiving, practiced being a wife before marriage, and made space for baby items before they arrived - all manifestations showed up including a Moses basket from a high school friend she hadn't spoken to in 14 years.
Cover your bases with both mindset and physical health - it's not just positive thinking
Maria combined Rosanne's mindset work with naturopathic care addressing food sensitivities, gut health, and thyroid issues that no fertility doctors had mentioned, leading to natural conception after 2.5 years.
When you're under attack most, something really good is afoot - stay present and focused
Maria conceived the day after advocating for her brother being kicked out of the army and dealing with trolls attacking her business page - she recognized the spiritual warfare and stayed in faith.
Advocate for yourself by asking questions when medical advice doesn't align with your values
Maria questioned ultrasound technicians saying her baby was underweight when she was exactly one pound at 23 weeks according to their own literature, then called four other OBs who confirmed this was normal.
Practice intuition with lower-stakes decisions to build trust in your inner guidance
Maria practiced trusting intuition by waiting for the right office chair at Goodwill for $3 instead of buying one for $350 online, building confidence in her ability to trust divine timing for bigger decisions.
Patience means actively working with all the processes, not just waiting passively
Maria clarified that patience with the naturopath meant showing up for appointments, taking supplements, changing her diet - the acupuncturist can't help unless you show up, and your body can't heal unless you do the work.
