The Support You Crave

The "So Now What?" Podcast

Hey, beautiful souls! Welcome back to another empowering episode. I'm Lana Mankowski, and this is the space where we delve into the intricate journey of being childless after infertility. Last week, we explored setting attainable goals, understanding their significance, and breaking them down into manageable steps. Today, we're continuing that journey with Part Two, sharing insights on creating accessibility for you, my incredible community.

Creating Achievable Goals:

Whether your goal is fitness, nutrition, or mindfulness, it starts with small, doable steps. The key is to give yourself wins, building a foundation for the life you want to lead. I've personally experienced the pitfalls of following plans that weren't aligned with my deeper goals, and I'm here to guide you through finding your path.

Grief Certification for Coaching:

One aspect often overlooked in fertility treatments is grief. I'm thrilled to share that I'm undertaking a grief certification for coaching. Grieving isn't just about tangible losses; it's valid for lost dreams around motherhood too. As a woman who is childless not by choice, I want to offer you the tools to navigate and heal through this grief that is often pushed under the rug and not recognized as grief by those around you.

Thrive After Infertility Mastermind:

The Thrive After Infertility Mastermind is evolving, becoming even more impactful. If you've been part of Thrive before or are considering joining, exciting changes await. The next class starts in February, and the application process ensures I can tailor my coaching to those who genuinely resonate with my approach.

The Other's Day Brunch:

Mark your calendars for the third annual Other's Day Brunch on May 11th, 2024. It's a unique event, deliberately scheduled before Mother's Day, offering solace and connection for those who may not fit the traditional celebration mold. Get on the waitlist; you won't want to miss this transformative experience.

Book Announcement:

In 2024, I'm fulfilling a long-cherished dream – I'm writing a book. This resource aims to represent your journey and provide tools for personal growth. My dream is for it to become a go-to resource to women who find themselves unexpectedly childless after infertility. I will also make it my mission to connect with fertility clinics and healthcare providers to make them aware of the needs their “failed infertility patients” are seeking so they can refer to this book as an offer of support for those navigating life without children post-treatment.

Closing Words:

This year is about transformation, and I'm here to guide you. Say yes to yourself, whether it's through Thrive, The Other's Day Brunch, exploring my book, or tuning in to the podcast. I've been in your shoes, and together, we're creating a supportive space for growth and healing.
