The Transformation

Before

Depressed, crying at kitchen counter, feeling like fertility journey was grief and deep loss, believing she didn't deserve to have everything she wanted

Key Shift

Learned to trust intuition over medical authority, set boundaries, identify saboteurs, and believe she was meant to be a mom

After

Empowered, ready, feeling fully capable and grateful for the journey that made her become who she wanted to be

In summary: Catherine's story demonstrates that natural conception after multiple failed ivf cycles, overcame chromosomally abnormal embryos diagnosis, and conceived with endometriosis and kinked tubes. She conceived naturally at 39 despite Endometriosis and Recurrent Miscarriage after a 3 years journey.

  • You can be blocking your success by believing you don't deserve to have everything you want

    Catherine discovered her saboteur belief 'you don't get to have everything you want' was blocking her conception because she feared if she had a baby, something would go wrong in her otherwise good life with her husband, job, and home.

  • Early life trauma can create unconscious blocks to fertility even decades later

    Catherine realized her father's death when she was young created an unconscious fear that 'when everything is really good, something bad happens' and she actually believed if she had a child, someone would die.

  • Trusting your intuition over medical authority can be the key to success

    Catherine's IVF doctor laughed and said Clear Passage therapy was 'baloney' that just takes people's money, but she trusted her intuition that it felt right for her body and did it anyway - conceiving naturally within one cycle afterward.

  • Begging for your baby sends the wrong message to the universe

    Catherine realized that from day one on her honeymoon, when she was praying 'please let me get pregnant' in Italian churches, she was telling the universe 'I don't have a baby' and creating a self-fulfilling prophecy of lack.

  • Taking time off from treatments to heal can be more powerful than rushing into the next cycle

    Catherine took 4-5 months off after her second failed IVF cycle to do nutrition work with Andy Mayhew, HIIT exercise, and Clear Passage therapy, shifting from feeling 'behind the clock' to taking back her power.

  • Learning to say what you want instead of people-pleasing is crucial for fertility success

    Catherine was a pleaser who always thought about everyone else before herself, but learned to ask 'Catherine, what do you want?' in simple decisions like coffee with friends, making her more grounded and capable of believing in herself.

  • The universe will conspire to give you what you truly want when you're aligned

    When Catherine's IVF clinic made a blood work error that delayed her cycle, she realized it was perfect timing to do Clear Passage therapy first - exactly what she'd always wanted but couldn't schedule, leading to natural conception.

Teachings2

  • Having clarity about what you want makes you a more effective leader of your fertility journey

    Catherine learned that when she got clear on what she wanted and could communicate it precisely to her medical team, it made their job easier and her more assertive in decision-making rather than spinning in fear.

  • You have to become the woman who succeeds before you succeed

    Catherine had to believe and do all the internal work - addressing her blocks, trusting her intuition, setting boundaries - before she could see the external manifestation of natural conception after years of failed treatments.

  • I actually think that if I have a child, someone's gonna die. Like, I think that, and I don't think it consciously, but I feel it, and it's a fear.
