Rosanne teaches the concept of the 'divine delay' - how the 'no's' and setbacks on your fertility journey are actually blessings redirecting you toward necessary growth. She challenges listeners to find gratitude for delays and see them as opportunities to become the mother their future baby needs.
Rosanne challenges the common reaction to setbacks and introduces the concept of seeing delays as detours in the right direction. She explains how settling for negative interpretations is allowing your reptilian brain to run the show instead of seeking the deeper meaning.
The divine delay is when the universe steps in to slow things down so you can work on something important. Rosanne shares her personal experience of being grateful that her son didn't come when she first wanted him, because she had so much growth to do first.
Rosanne explains that if you stay exactly as you've always been, you'll never become the mother you want to be. She emphasizes that big plans for your baby require big growth for mom, and the delays often facilitate this necessary transformation.
Rosanne provides a specific three-step exercise for finding gratitude in setbacks: reflecting on all the 'no's' you've received, creating a list of 25 setbacks with their corresponding lessons, and sharing the message with others who need to hear it.
“The divine delay, at least how I see it, is Gus, god universe source, stepping in and saying, hey, doll. We're gonna pump the brakes for just a second. I've got something for you to work on. I'm looking out for you. Trust me.”
— Rosanne Austin▶ 2:26
The divine delay is when setbacks and 'no's' on your fertility journey are actually the universe stepping in to help you grow into the mother your baby needs you to be. It's about seeing delays as blessings rather than roadblocks.
“grab a piece of paper and make a list of twenty five of them. Yes. Twenty five. For each no or divine delay you have faced, I want you to list the lesson you learned as a result of it.”
— Rosanne Austin▶ 9:08
Make a list of 25 setbacks you've faced and identify the lesson learned from each one. Consider how each delay prepared you to be a better mother and look for the growth opportunities in every 'no' you receive.
“if you stay the way you've always been, you will never be the mom you actually want to be. We all have dreams of spending as much time as possible with these miracle children. But if you aren't learning patience or you aren't learning good boundaries or you aren't learning how to move beyond the upper limits that you've set for yourself or the old programming that your parents gave you, how the fuck are you ever going to create a better future for your children?”
— Rosanne Austin▶ 6:11
Delays often happen because you need to grow into the mother your baby needs you to be. If you stay the way you've always been, you may repeat old patterns instead of creating the better future you envision for your children.
“a no is really a not yet. And let me tell you, like, one of the things that I'm I always share with my ladies is I am grateful for every single moment of my journey”
— Rosanne Austin▶ 4:29
A 'no' is really a 'not yet.' It's not about giving up but about understanding there may be something you need to learn or work on before moving forward. Gratitude for these no's keeps you open to guidance in the right direction.
“Because remember, thoughts, beliefs, actions, results. You cannot get around it. It's logical and linear.”
— Rosanne Austin▶ 7:34
Mindset follows the sequence: thoughts, beliefs, actions, results. You cannot get around this logical progression. If you don't address what's happening in your mind, you may keep repeating losing patterns even if you have the physical aspects handled.
“anyone who actually thinks strategically would be willing to take a step back and ask, hey. Is there something I might not be seeing? Is there a lesson I am missing right now because my ego is in the way.”
— Rosanne Austin▶ 3:27
Ask yourself if there's something you might not be seeing or a lesson you're missing. Take a step back to examine patterns and consider whether your mindset might be creating blocks between you and your baby.
A specific exercise to reframe fertility delays as divine delays and find the lessons within each setback
Reflect on setbacks
Think about all of the no's you've gotten on this journey. Lovingly consider each one of the setbacks you have faced.
Create a lessons list
Grab a piece of paper and make a list of 25 setbacks. Draw a line down the center. On one side, put the setback or divine delay. On the other side, write the lesson you learned as a result of it.

Frameworks & Methods
Common Beliefs
The desire in your heart to be a mom is there because it was fucking meant for you - this desire is your divine assignment
Rosanne conceived naturally at 43 after years of treatment failure by following this principle. Recent podcast guests Elise and Mikayla both held babies after choosing belief over their circumstances.
Belief always precedes the miracle - you must believe even in the darkest moments, not just when things feel good
All of the recent podcast success stories featured women who believed bigger than their current circumstances. A fertility expert interviewed confirmed that most fertility challenges are figureoutable.
Living with wonderment means choosing astonishment, awe, and curiosity over automatic negativity and limiting beliefs
As defined by the American Heritage Dictionary, wonderment is astonishment, awe, or puzzlement — something that produces wonder, a marvel, surprise, or astonishment.
When you can't see how amazing it is to be alive while on this journey, you make it exponentially harder to call in the life you're trying to create
Rosanne conceived naturally at 43 after years of treatment failure by shifting her mindset and living with purpose and appreciation rather than mere existence.
