Seema

Making a decision about who you're going to be on this journey activates unstoppable mama bear energy

Seema went from scared and unsure to fierce determination, declaring 'there was no option of me leaving without my baby' and promising herself she'd email Rosanne before her 40th birthday with pregnancy news - which she did with 2 weeks to spare.

Your fertility journey isn't just about you - it's about the journey you and your partner are doing together

Seema realized she was blaming Mike and making him feel on the outside, so she encouraged him to build his own support system and brought him into the process, strengthening their relationship and creating shared success.

Building your bump squad of supportive people is critical for fertility success

Seema surrounded herself with people who would celebrate every little success and hold her hand during low moments, including connecting with Mike's friend's wife who had been through IVF, creating her essential support network.

Faith in yourself becomes the foundation that carries you through fertility challenges

Seema developed faith by writing letters to herself celebrating each success, like having 'two fantastic eggs in the freezer,' which built her belief that good things were happening around her and lit an unstoppable inner fire.

Forgiveness of past fertility-related decisions is critical to clearing blocks between you and your baby

Seema tortured herself for years believing her 2016 abortion was causing karma to prevent pregnancy, but once she forgave herself and stopped returning to that place mentally, she conceived through IVF at 39 despite endometriosis and cancer scares.

People who are successful on this journey take action, not just feel sorry for themselves

Seema allowed herself one day to cry after her cancer scare, then said 'enough' and got back to action. She went from retrieval to transfer to pregnancy within months while dealing with potential cancer diagnosis.

Guilt and shame keep women trapped on this fertility journey through false karma beliefs

Seema believed for years that her abortion was karma preventing pregnancy, saying 'this is my fault' and crying constantly until she learned to forgive herself and move forward to conceive at 39.

Visualization and keeping your mama dream at the front of your mind is essential for success

Seema advises women to 'have that image of you being a mum right there at the very front of your mind and visualize it and keep dreaming about it because it is right there and it is achievable' - advice that worked for her own success at 39.
