Helping busy professional women to maximise their chances of conceiving
Because it's a lonely journey if you don't have any support
About Me
Hi, I'm Debbie. Welcome to my website, I'm so glad you're here.
During my time of trying to conceive our first child, I found each month and the hoping, trying, and waiting really affected the way I thought and the way I talked to myself. The cycle became a really negative experience really quickly, but I couldn't find the words to articulate what I was going through or even to know how or where to look for help.
Then we did conceive, but miscarried. This shut down my ability to cope with and understand what I was going through even more. As I shared on Instagram, I didn't even understand that I was grieving. I didn't know that grieving was 'allowed' around miscarriage. I lost myself for more than 6 months, until I finally had the conversation with my wonderful sister that started to change things. Having someone to put words to what was going on for me was transformative. To know that I could feel safe enough to share what was actually in my head , and therefore to separate the truth from the fear, helped my mind and my body to get 'un-stuck', and we finally had our first daughter in 2018.
When we decided to try and add to our family again, the fear returned. I worried I would fall back into the stress and helplessness of before. But this time was different—I had completed my One of Many Coaching Certification and was also receiving 1:1 coaching. I had a regular timeslot with someone who would help me to safely release what was coming up, and also to help weave all that I had learned as a Coach into my own journey.
I am still so grateful to those women who (virtually) held me on the months when I thought it had happened, but hadn't, and then when we conceived but miscarried again. By scheduling that emotional support, I made sure that I had that time for myself, and could be honest and open with someone who was dedicating that hour to me, with no distractions.
This mean that I was able to speak openly with my family, feel more in control, and find my way to grieve. Incredibly, we conceived our second daughter just a month after that second miscarriage.
My own experiences have taught me that compassionate 1:1 support can transform a woman's fertility journey. I want you to know that I've struggled AND that I've come through the other side with my husband and girls, and that I truly want a joyful outcome for you too.
Speak soon,

About you
Perhaps you're my ideal client - does any of this sound familiar?
You have a busy professional career that you've worked very hard at, and so does your equally busy and professional partner. You've decided to try for a baby, and so you've done a lot of research into the health side of things. You're tracking your ovulation and you're making a real effort to eat the right things and do the right amount of exercise, and have sex at the right time.
In the rest of your life you know that you can just work harder or concentrate more to achieve your goal.
However, with fertility, you feel like you're trying everything but not getting any different results.
This is now impacting your thoughts at all times of day and night - it's like a running dialogue in the background. Then there's the constant monitoring of your body, hoping that any twinge could be a sign - only to have the grief of a period starting hit you like a ton of bricks.
You've not yet fully confronted your fears around the possibility of medication or IVF because your imagination excels at worst-case-scenario thinking.
You feel isolated and often lonely - sometimes connecting with other women who are trying to conceive in online communities, but also aware that the forums can descend quickly into doom and gloom if left unchecked.
Or, an unexpected pregnancy announcement sends you spiralling and fighting with the jealousy that you wish you didn't feel.
Very few people around you know how tough you are finding this chapter of your life. Even your partner might not fully understand, as the dialogue around fertility is so skewed to it being a 'woman's issue'. You hope that you can 'just keep going' and it will happen someday, but you're also very afraid of the possibility that it might not.
It's a tough place to be. I want to help you to shift your future and get to where you want to be.
