"My journey with fertility has been something unexpected, unique, and beautiful. Having had a daughter 9 years ago, fertility is something I never questioned when planning for more children after my marriage in 2022. However, I was caught by surprised when, month after month, we failed to conceive. I had made huge changes to my diet, lifestyle and mentality, so why was this happening? Confusion turned into fear which turned into grief. Despite reassurance from family and doctors that “it takes time” and “fertility treatment may be your best bet,” I knew deep in my being that there was more to the story. Working with Ariel has empowered me to take charge of my health and dig deeper without feeling shamed or questioned. I have been given answers to symptoms that other doctors brushed off, allowing my body to peel back the layers. Thereby, allowing my body to heal properly and become the best environment for my now sweet baby on the way. My healing really propelled once I began the deep emotional work and implementation of recommendations tailored specifically to what my body needed. Looking back at what I thought was a melancholy time, I now thank myself for being given the time to create the strong foundation marked by time and effort, for my baby. Thank you root cause clinic!"
