How to Get Through Hard Seasons: Our Failed IVF Cycle & Balancing IVF, Career, & Life When It Didn’t Work [S7 Premiere]

How do you keep showing up when everything feels overwhelming behind the scenes? And what does it really involve getting through tough times? In the Season 7 premiere, Kellie shares her IVF journey and the heartbreak of a failed first cycle, the emotional burden of waiting, and the unexpected reality of facing so much uncertainty while continuing to perform in her career and daily life.Throughout this deeply personal season, she shares what it looked like to move forward without having everything figured out. From advocating for herself at work and allowing others to step in and support her, to starting a simple group chat so loved ones knew how to help. She also reflects on learning to protect her energy: by clearing her schedule, stepping back from commitments, and being intentional about who she allows into her hard season. During moments when she feels out of control, she focuses on what she can hold onto: daily routines, health habits, her faith, and releasing outcomes she can’t force. Kellie shares what it meant to take life one day at a time (truly), give herself space to process without pressure, and learn how to move forward without pretending the pain wasn’t still there.Listeners can expect honest reflections and tangible takeaways, including:Trusting your timing, even when it doesn’t match your planAdvocating for yourself and allowing support instead of carrying it aloneProtecting your energy and removing what adds unnecessary pressureFocusing on what you can control when everything else feels uncertainTaking life one day at a time, without needing to have the whole future figured outWhether you’re navigating fertility struggles or simply walking through a heavy season, this conversation is a reminder that you are not alone, even when it feels that way. Because getting through hard things isn’t about being perfect or “overcoming,” it’s about continuing, adapting, and learning how to carry what you’ve been through while still choosing to move forward. Enjoyed this episode?
