Success Stories

Everything Robyn said resonated with me, and I felt connected like I wasn’t alone in what I was experiencing. I felt better able to navigate infertility. I am equipped with new tools to manage my anxiety and work through my grief. I’ve let go of control of the outcome, and have focused more on the things I can control in the process. I would recommend this program, especially to women who have been dealing with infertility/IVF/miscarriages. I know I will continue to revisit the modules and journal prompts.

I am definitely more calm and ordered thinking around IVF.  I can be around babies and small kids again.  I am feeling much better about the unknown of it all. My emotions, whilst still there, don’t escalate. I’ve stopped crying over everything. I feel like I’m becoming okay with not being in control. Before the course I was trying to control everything, panicking over everything, cutting over everything. I was a mess. Now I feel like I’m living a little bit more freely again.  The course forces you to look at your thoughts and emotions and make sense of them in a structured way. But also, I think just having it reiterated again and again that it’s normal and understandable to feel like this is really liberating.

I only joined because I liked Robyn's podcast so much, and because it was run by her, it felt kind of familiar. I haven't YET become pregnant, but I think the biggest benefit would be it helped me make the decision to put myself first for once and quit my job. Putting myself first has helped me focus on what matters, my mind, body, and health. I have become so much calmer and much more aware of the importance of mind and body health. The power of gratitude and positive self talk. I wish I had this at the start of my journey, it really gave me the building blocks to learn how to cope through this shit storm and find me again. I just want to say thank you. Thank you to Robyn and everyone else behind the scenes. Thank you for helping me become a happier and calmer person. For teaching me valuable lessons about self love and how to be my own biggest cheerleader.  I will be continuing to access the portal and support groups for help and support as only warriors can understand the toll this journey has on our lives. I know with these lessons a baby has to be right around the corner.  From the bottom of my heart thank you xxx

This program helped me in more aspects of my life than just fertility.  It could apply a lot to activities in other areas.

I was excited to join, since I was listening to your amazing podcast for a long time and got so much value from it. I knew it would be worth the investment! From the first module, I felt the value especially since you set the tone in such a lovely way. I felt like I was finally getting my emotions under control and the constant reminder that the feelings we all feel "are normal" is so very helpful, Robyn! I am kinder with myself and am not trying to rush any part of this journey anymore. I am doing the best I can with the things I can control and trying to be patient with the many things I cannot control. I would absolutely recommend the Warrior Intensive to anyone TTC and I already have. There are so many helpful tools and tips in each module, I really love the bonuses as well. I think you are doing an incredible job and appreciate everything you do and share with our community. Thank you again so much!

“I realized I am not alone and that positive affirmations are key in life. IVF Clinics need someone like Robyn integrated into their office.  I am more aware of my negative thinking patterns and have learned to not put my life on hold for IVF.  IVF can be a long, hard struggle. Robyn makes you laugh and helps you believe in yourself.”

I have a new sense of not letting the little things bother me.  I experienced a feeling of not being alone in this journey.  I think I changed before the program even began because I found your website.  I found a completely new way to think about stress.  It's difficult to explain but it has worked wonders! The self exploration and the fact that it helped me better communicate with loved ones has made this difficult journey so much better.

In the first two or three modules alone I learned to accept those painful feelings, see money as a renewable resource and worry less about the costs. I also learned how to focus on nurturing myself. I really needed some self care. I got into a routine of running myself a bath and watching a module. In addition to that, I really reached out to my friends and family and opened up about our struggle. It was really helpful. I’m currently dealing with OHSS and I’m physically ready for a break, but my husband is feeling totally ready to give up. I’m stuck, in a new way than before. I do have a better way of coping with the ups and downs of this seemingly never-ending road. I would 10000000000% recommend this course to anyone else trying to conceive.  In fact, I recommend it to a lot of women because I work with pregnant women and women trying to conceive every day.

I have a better mindset. I’m calmer. I feel like I'm not alone. I feel like there are others out there doing this, and I can handle it. I've learned how to control the things I can control and to just accept the things I cannot control. I've learned how to bring back things into my life that brought me joy. I've learned how to get out of sad/ frustrating situations faster. Before I was isolated and depressed. I felt helpless and was really mad, very angry this was happening to us. Now I still have episodes of feeling helpless or sad/ mad but they are in appropriate settings and only last briefly. I now feel hopeful. I learned how to enjoy life during this really tough journey. Would I recommend this program? YES! Infertility is tough. It's awful. There's no reason to go through it alone. It's important to take care of your mental health, and get support from experts who have been through this and know how to coach you through it. Excellent program. I loved the Facebook live sessions and full moon sessions. It was great to feel connected. It was not just modules I downloaded and then never heard from you or anyone else. This program is a great price and totally worth every penny. 

I am much more calm and clear about what I want.  This program is important, especially for the Type A personalities.

I felt like I had hit rock bottom in my fertility journey, and that I needed to learn tools to have a more mentally healthy fertility journey.  The benefits: I have started doing the Pilates class with Emma daily, which before this for months I have been telling myself I am going to start doing but never have. It has given me more consistency in my weekly schedule since I am not working at this time.  I feel that I am less anxious, I feel in better shape physically since starting , I feel that I am able to manage my negative thoughts better.  I would absolutely recommend this.  I am part of a support group with other women that belong to the same fertility clinic as me and I shared this program link on our Facebook page. I would recommend it, because even if it can't change the results of an IVF cycle, I believe it can help women cope better with the results.

I have learned valuable coping skills that I utilize on a daily basis.  I embrace that my feelings are valid. It is okay to acknowledge/name my feelings and then move on. I celebrate small victories. I make sure to enjoy life's little moments. I have dedicated one evening per week for self-care and it has done wonders for my emotional well-being.  I absolutely do recommend this to anyone else trying to conceive.  It's helped me get away from a very dark place where I was being so self-critical.

A month and a half ago I was feeling low, I wasn't feeling supported at work , and I didn't know how to process and face the news of my friend’s pregnancy announcement. I felt completely overwhelmed and derailed in life. I would wake up in the middle of the night and just cry. Things started to take a turn when I discovered this program. Just knowing that others out there can completely relate has been helpful. Plus, the modules and worksheets are helpful. And I love the Facebook group and the Vault! Not saying it’s all roses and my sadness has magically melted away, but I’ve been feeling really good lately and definitely more empowered and equipped with some tools, tips and mantras to keep me focused and positive.

I was worried about the extra money I was going to spend on the course but I think it was worth it!  The course has really opened my mind to be more positive and believe.  I have also gone gluten free within this program which makes me feel better.  I think this program will help people who are struggling with the journey.  It isn’t an easy thing to go through so all the support you can get, the better.

I LOVED ALL OF THE STRATEGIES. Journaling was huge. Knowing what to do when I'm panicking was huge. The worksheets, the slides. I go back and look at them even though the course is over. I find that I am using the strategies discussed and though there are still hard days (which is to be expected), I am coming out of the darkness and setbacks that come my way quicker because I have these strategies.  I still have my sad moments, but waaaay less often and I can work through them because I have a toolbox full of strategies. I am more confident and now see the importance of investing in myself and am actively taking the time to do that. I'm better at saying "no," and doing what's right for me and my family.  I would absolutely recommend this and I already have. Again, I know I sound like a broken record, but the abundance of strategies you gain and the confidence it has given me to conquer my infertility no matter what happens.

Thanks for your support. It really does help to be a part of this group. I don't feel so alone anymore! You're truly a special person to do this for all of us warriors.

“This program gives you a sense of community, knowing that there are other families going through the same thing.  I now have more confidence pushing forward with each step.  I am also able to share my feelings with my spouse in a good, communicative way.”

Every module taught me something valuable: I’ve learned about my relationship and ways to strengthen it. I’ve learned so many coping tips that have become sanity saving. I received some great advice on improving fertility and overall health. I think I’ve benefited in every area of my life.  Before, I was a mess - depressed, miserable, frantic, angry, so anxious about minutiae, no idea how to keep living. Now, I am in a completely different head space than before the Intensive - my lows are not quite as low and I can deal with them better and come out of them quicker. I’m finding hope for the future and even starting to find good in the lessons I’m learning through this journey.  I would absolutely recommend the program because this journey is impossible without support, advice, encouragement, and coping strategies and resources. The Intensive provided me with so much of this.

I wanted to drop you a line to tell you how amazing your fertility warrior course is. I signed up back in November after a couple of failed cycles and only just finished the intensive course this weekend - I didn’t want it to end. You and your course are fucking amazing. I love your humour - the way you express things (I’m an Aussie living in New York and I miss home so much!). Your mantras are fantastic. I loved every module and question posed to me and I’m getting so much out of the yoga and meditations. You’re truly inspirational and I genuinely feel supported by you even though I’ve never met you (I’m a bit quiet on the Facebook which I’m hoping to change). Thank you for putting so much of yourself into this course. I’m so grateful that I found you.

“I have benefited by learning coping strategies, I have better conversations with my husband, a better mindset, and the feeling of not being alone in this journey anymore.  I feel like my husband and I have become closer as a result of doing the modules together.  Overall, I’m very happy that I joined the intensive and I only wish I hadn’t waited so long.” 

The programme has been so good! I’ve loved having something positive to focus on whilst on the fertility journey instead of always feeling negative and upset. I feel so much better about this journey whatever the outcome is.

I do feel better about things, I’m trusting myself more and it feels good to just let some things go. It's been a good kick in the bum to remember to live, not just wait. I really enjoyed last night’s session - it made so much sense. I think that I will need to keep coming back to watching the videos to remind myself.

I have experienced tons of benefits from the program: facing my feelings, writing them down, which I generally avoid, but know is really helpful, validation, laughs from Robyn, tangible tips (I just got mini positivity cards from Etsy and have placed them all over my home and car), more resources than I even had energy for in the Vault and Extras, but I am happy to know they are there.  I would absolutely recommend the program to anyone else trying to conceive.  It's well done, structured, doesn't take too much time.  I made it a Sunday morning ritual, makes you dig in and face tough stuff, but also makes you laugh at times and feel like you aren't the only one.

I am much more confident since joining the program.  I have the confidence to tell my loved ones how they can support me but also confidence to know that I'm not broken and I can get through this.  I 100% recommend this course, especially for women in my position stranded in a foreign country without friends or family - it's amazing what the connection does for you when you realise you're not alone.

Robyn has such a peaceful voice! I really tried to sit with what she has taught and had some massive 'a-ha' moments. Anyway, it's great it really is. I just want to tell everyone I know who is struggling with this because I know they'll love it too. Robyn’s calm, practical approach helped me to see things with more clarity then I ever have before. Each module really made me stop and think and I’ve come away with so many resources for a positive mindset. I feel armed, refreshed and ready to tackle this journey and whatever it sends my way.

“The coping strategies were fantastic and I feel like my mindset was really re-programmed. Instead of focusing on the “big fail”, we started celebrating each “win” and step we were taking to go above and beyond what is “normally” required to have a baby. Even though we still aren’t open about it, I feel like I can better “own” our IVF journey now, and instead of focusing on the fixed, (that we have to do IVF) I can focus on the flexible- things I can change.  I think before the program I was still holding on to the grief of not having the baby/pregnancy experience that I envisioned. I was depressed that we had to do IVF and further depressed that starting fertility treatments I was in great shape, perfect for a “fit” pregnancy but with treatments and “gentle walking” as the only prescribed workout plan, I have gained weight (nothing fertility worthy, still “normal”). I have better come to terms with this since joining the program and better understand that how I envisioned it, just isn’t how it’s going to go. I’m not going to be running throughout the pregnancy, and super fit, but I will get a baby in the end and I can get back to the other stuff after. I have better realized what is important and what isn’t.”

I feel so much more empowered in my journey.  I have taken action, changed doctors, started working with a natural holistic practitioner and feel more optimistic.  My attitude is much more positive.  I have now started to focus on myself more, being happy and enjoying my life.  No longer putting it on hold!  I would recommend this to anyone who feels like they cannot see the light at the end of the tunnel.  This program will help you get a bit closer and help you feel positive that it will happen.

I have been through the roughest part of my journey so far, maybe even my rock bottom. Just happened to land during the Fertility Warrior Intensive. The program has been a toolbox I could go back to when I’m having my oh shit panic moments. Not to mention having the back up of my fellow intensive warriors and Robyn to be right there along with me.
