info_outlineThis episode is all about how to care for yourself, and includes loving tips on how family and friends can support someone in fertility treatment, too.
Self-care is anything but selfish. It can come in the form of setting healthy boundaries in relationships, having clear communication or simply giving ourselves a break. As a fertility patient when we prioritize these things it helps us bring forward our best selves for every situation and makes the journey more supportive.
In this Egg Whisperer show, I share suggestions for patients and friends and family members of patients to help their fertility journey be one where they feel supported and loved.
My hope is that you’re able to apply this, no matter your situation, and find your fertility journey is better as a result.
