Today, let’s introduce you to your new bestie. It’s your nonjudgmental sounding board where you can unload your deepest thoughts, your most private feelings, and your raw emotions. If that sounds powerful and freeing to you, then say hello to journaling. Journaling is an incredibly beautiful practice of presence - but it wasn’t until I was on my fertility journey that I realised I’d been doing it all wrong. I’d been doing what I call “perfectionism journaling” and censoring my true thoughts and feelings like someone would read them. That’s not real. That’s not therapeutic. And that’s definitely not helpful to your journey. Journaling should be your messy, raw, open thoughts spilled out onto paper. It can seem daunting at first, but it’s as simple as that. In this episode, I’m going to show you how to let go of that perfectionism and let your real feelings be free. I’ll help guide you and give you journaling prompts to get started - but at the same time show you that there’s no need for structure, schedule, pressure, or stress. It can and should be as sporadic and uncertain as life itself. I want journaling to be a supportive tool and best friend on your IVF and fertility journey, just like it was for me. When done right, it has the power to be your ally - for fertility, pregnancy, and beyond. 🌈 Website - chloecollins.com.au 🌈 Instagram - @chloecollinsnutrition 🌈 Join my free email community IVF Magic is like a big informative hug, not another thing on the to-do list, but a feminine guide to not just surviving but THRIVING in IVF ✨ Support the show
