I trust my body so much more

Before working with Kendra, what were your symptoms? How were you feeling about your health/ fertility and body?

Before working with Kendra, I was feeling so disconnected from my body. I had been trying to get pregnant for several years. After failed fertility treatments and failed pregnancies, I felt so betrayed by my own body. My self talk about my body and fertility had become so negative.

Before working with Kendra, what had you tried/ what were you doing to manage your symptoms/ reach your goals?

I was trying everything to manage or fix my infertility. I tried tracking my basal body temperature and cervical fluid to predict ovulation. I made appointments with doctors and learned I had PCOS. I tried more spiritual things like requesting a prayer quilt and buying the right crystals for the good energy. I've been seeing a therapist and psychiatrist to cope with the resulting and ongoing depression; this paired with yoga and meditation has been the most successful at bringing me some peace. Kendra's Live Fertile videos have been in my regular rotation for at-home yoga sessions and learning about fertility, so when I saw an opportunity to work with Kendra one-on-one while I was taking a break from fertility treatments, I decided it would be worth the investment.

What was it like to work with Kendra?

I signed up for a 12-week Preconception Preparation Package, and it was so lovely working with Kendra throughout the process. I appreciated that she met me where I was at; instead of prescribing routine and diet, she worked with me to co-create a plan each week to build upon what already fits in my life and offered new habits that were easy to implement or try out. This approach helped me realize that I do know how to take care of my body--I had just lost touch with what my body needs and honoring it. Kendra and I spent a lot of time discussing ways I could check-in with my body and prioritizing the time to take care of myself.

Since working with Kendra, how have your feelings about your health and body changed? How have your symptoms changed? What goals have you reached?

Since working with Kendra, I trust my body so much more. Even though I am not pregnant yet, I am so grateful for this reconnection to my body. There are less feelings of betrayal and resistance. Taking care of my body with healthier eating habits, quieter moments, gentle movement, and affirmations has had a positive impact on my life. I expect that because of this change, I will feel much more ready to take good care of myself when I am pregnant.

What would you say to anyone considering working with Kendra?

Kendra is just as delightful, kind, and knowledgeable as she is in her YouTube videos. You'll feel heard and cared for working with her.
