67: "Thinking positively" to get pregnan...

Jennifer Edmonds
About this episode

You hear this time & time again when you’re TTC:


"Just stay positive!" 

"Just keep trying!"

"I know it’s going to happen for you!"


And it gets to the point where you feel like you HAVE to think positively in order to manifest what you want.


But that’s not how it works. And to be honest – it’s not even possible to think like this all the time.


So on today’s episode, we talk about what you should do instead.


By the time you finish listening, you'll find out: 

  • Why "thinking positively" isn't the answer to your fertility challenges
  • Why pushing away negative thoughts isn't a solution
  • Why mantras and affirmations don't always work




When you finish listening, I'd love to hear your biggest takeaway from today’s episode. Take a screenshot of you listening on your device, share it to your Instagram stories and tag me, @jen.elementpilatesyoga
