What If Healing Doesn’t Mean Fixing?
We live in a paradigm that teaches us:
you experience trauma → you are wounded → you must work very hard to heal.
This narrative has been repeated so often that it feels like truth. Many women on the fertility path live inside it daily believing that if they could just try harder, think more positively, eat the perfect diet, do all the right protocols, then their bodies would finally cooperate.
But what if there is another way?
Think about a small cut on your skin. You don’t need to pray over it, eat the perfect food, or strive to control the process in order for it to close. Healing happens naturally. The body knows. The wound contains within it the blueprint for repair.
Emotional wounds are no different.
When you’ve been trying to conceive and each month ends with disappointment, it’s not just your body that feels heavy. It’s your heart, your nervous system, your sense of trust in life. The grief is real. The pain is real. But here’s the paradox: the more we fight against that pain, the more we believe we must fix ourselves in order to heal, the longer we stay caught in the wound.
The wound itself is not the problem.
It is the doorway.
Just as the skin closes by itself when given space, our emotional wounds soften when they are held with gentleness instead of judgement. Healing comes not from endless fixing, but from allowing: allowing the body to feel, the heart to grieve, and the nervous system to rest.
This is not about resignation. It’s about trust.
Trust that your body is not broken.
Trust that your womb is not a problem to solve.
Trust that even in disappointment, life is working through you in ways you cannot yet see.
When I was in the depths of my own fertility journey, I spent years trying to do my way to conception. Supplements, diets, protocols, healing sessions. You name it, I tried it all. Every month, when my period came, I collapsed into grief and self-blame. I told myself something was wrong with me, or worse, that I was being punished.
It took me a long time to see that what I needed wasn’t more effort but it was space.
Space to breathe.
Space to be held.
Space to allow the natural intelligence of my body and soul to do what they already knew how to do: heal.
And this is the heart of my work now.
I hold a space for women over 35 who are on the trying-to-conceive journey, not to fix them, but to remind them of their wholeness. I help women reconnect with the part of them that already knows how to soften, to release, and to heal.
Because healing does not mean becoming perfect.
It does not mean erasing the wound.
It means allowing the wound to become a womb that is a sacred place of transformation, where pain ripens into wisdom and where your body, heart, and soul can rest back into trust.
If you are tired of striving and ready to discover another way where you don’t have to fix yourself to be worthy of healing I invite you to take the next step with me.
Your body already knows. Let’s listen together.
