Women Who Had a Different Experience
Teachings
Breakthroughs 1
Being a good steward of your blessings is more powerful than acting from fear of loss
Instead of saying 'I can't have caffeine because I'm afraid of losing the babies,' Ellie reframed it as 'I choose to be a good steward of this double blessing.' This mindset carried her through a successful twin pregnancy.
Teachings 13
Fear patterns are learned behaviors that we thought would keep us safe, but they are failing miserably now
Through 12+ years coaching women ages 28-54 across six continents, Rosanne has observed that women rely on fear patterns for control and safety, but these patterns create space between them and their transformation.
Even if there are slightly higher risks with pregnancy over 35, exacerbating that risk with scary labels and fear-based messaging is not healthcare
Women over 35 are immediately met with statistics about how hard it will be to get pregnant and pregnancy risks, with no concern about the physiological impact of this negativity.
Stress hormones from high risk labeling cross the placenta and affect baby's development
Dr. Fischbein describes how women labeled high risk spend 40 weeks in terror, bathing their babies in cortisol and adrenaline instead of dopamine and oxytocin needed for healthy development.
Fear-based decisions consistently produce poor results in relationships and fertility
Mr. Austin explains 'when we make fear based decisions, we typically don't get good results' and eliminating fear-based decision making from their lives made their lifestyle 'go up incredibly'.
Fear and doubt are a mind virus more contagious and deadly than any physical threat
Rosanne's 12+ years coaching women across six continents shows that fear-based thinking patterns consistently prevent women from making decisions and taking actions that lead to conception.
Focus on what you don't want literally feeds the growth of what you don't want - your energy flows where your attention goes
When you're late to work and focused on being late, you hit every red light and encounter every slow driver, demonstrating how worry about unwanted outcomes amplifies their manifestation
Recessions are predictable cycles that pass — you've likely survived 3-4 already without lasting impact
Since World War II, documented recessions occurred in 1945, 1949, 1953, 1957, 1960, 1970, 1973-75, 1980-82, 1990-91, 2001, 2008-09, and 2020. If born in the 1980s, you've survived four recessions.
Decisions should be made from positive possibility and expansion, not fear, lack and scarcity
Fear-driven decisions focus on what might go wrong, while expansion-based decisions create excitement about what's coming. As Rosanne's husband says, 'scared money never wins.'
A big ask requires big faith - getting your baby is too important to rely on small, fearful thinking
Rosanne teaches thousands of women globally using faith-based mindset methods, with many beating the odds after years of failure
When all of your fear-based notions are failing to put a baby in your arms, it makes practical sense to toss those fuckers out
Rosanne argues that being fearless is actually the most practical thing you can do when fear has not launched you into the labor and delivery room.
There's a fundamental difference between being interested in success versus being invested - and it determines who wins on the fertility journey
This concept comes from Philadelphia Eagles coach Doug Peterson who would ask his team 'Are you interested in winning or are you invested in it?' The women standing in Rosanne's winner's circle were invested, not messing around, and willing to be the last woman standing.
This fertility journey sucks away our willingness to be fierce, maybe because it's intimate by nature or preys upon our sense of self worth
Allowing this to happen is self-sabotaging bullshit because the reality is the time to be invested is now. Women who are truly invested in being a mom cannot afford to hold back or live with the searing pain of regret.
When failure shows up, greet it like an old friend: 'Hello, failure. I was expecting you. Victory is right on her way'
This approach allowed Rosanne's clients to stay in the game when most people would quit, leading to their recent pregnancy announcements despite previous setbacks.
Perspectives 2
Cultural sayings like 'don't count your chickens before they hatch' are rooted in lack and scarcity
These statements contain zero faith and keep women from connecting with their children energetically, blocking the very connection that successful mothers like Robin and others have trusted.
▶ 3:38Fear is basic and boring with predictable worst-case outcomes, while faith opens infinite possibilities
Rosanne's practice now touches thousands of women worldwide daily, all because she chose faith over fear during her darkest fertility moments
