In an ideal world, family-building would be straightforward and natural. Unfortunately, this is not always the case. This can lead to a series of new and difficult choices: drugs, IVF, egg or sperm donation, adoption, living child-free. The treatments can cost tens of thousands of dollars, and they're not guaranteed to work. And the emotional toll can be worst of all, as partners grapple with infertility. It's easy to feel lost and out of control.

It does not have to be this way. You might not be able to control your body, but you CAN control the choices you make.

Imagine having someone who was dedicated to listen to you and had real understanding with what you are going through.  Someone you could confide in, who would be a sounding board for your particular circumstances, someone who truly cared and could provide knowlege and expertise in the area of infertility.  Someone who would help guide you through your journey, helping you avoid the pitfalls along the way.... Someone who was on your side ............. 

Not only did I have to face my own fertility journey but I have been guiding women through their difficult fertility choices for many years.  As a professional coach, I do not provide 'the answers' but rather help you explore and discover the answers which are right for you!   I listen without judgement and help bring clarity and awareness of choices.

Discover hope, awareness and empowerment

Without a coach you can certainly walk the journey on your own however, you may be limited by your own knowledge, support and resources.  Infertility can be a long road and the measure of success is not only what you achieve when the journey has finished but also how well you have travelled the path. 

Fertile Wishes, Pat

Logistics for Personal Fertility Coaching.

Coaching takes place bytelephone. Coaching calls occur on a regular basis – weekly, biweekly or monthly – as determined by you.  The length of each call is predetermined but can be adjusted as circumstances dictate. Calls are normally 30 minutes in length but can be up to 1 hour.  Together we agree in advance on a coaching day and time. 

Most coaching relationships are usually for a minimum of 5 sessions but this is also predetermined by you and can be extended or shortened as necessary. Typically the coaching relationship lasts for the duration of your infertility treatments.

What You Can Expect.

You will receive in advance a package of materials which will help us prepare for our first session together.  The first session is an intake session.  I will provide you with more information about coaching and find out how you want to structure our coaching relationship.  We will go over your concernshistory and decide on your goals and what you want to get out of the coaching sessions.  We also agree on the logistics around our coaching sessions. 

Each of us is unique with different goals but coaching sessions often include:

  • Discussing your fertility treatments and the impact they are having on you, your relationships and other aspects of your life
  • Answering questions of an educational nature such as how treatments work, alternative methods to increase fertility etc.
  • Exploring your thoughts and feelings around difficult situations which may arise eg.dealing with attitudes of others, treatment options, when to stop
  • How to gain control back over your life, how to move forward when you feel 'stuck'
  • Coaching is accomplished by listening without judgement and through the asking of powerful questions which encourage awareness and open our minds to possibility 

    How Does Coaching Help Me?

    Coaching is an ongoing relationship formed on a basis of trust and confidence.  Our coaching relationship will be a strong alliance which will:  

  • Help you reduce stress by having strong, dedicated support throughout your fertility journey
  • Keep you focused on your goals helping you to find alternative solutions to difficult issues
  • Help you deal with non-medical issues that are simply  part of coping with infertility
  • Find answers, reduce concerns and gain perspective and control 

    I will become your confidant and advocate.  I will be strong for you in times when you are feeling weak.  Through our coaching relationship you will discover the strength and possibilities within yourself.

    How Do I Request Personal Coaching?

    You can make a no obligation request for personal coaching through this website.  We will have an initial phone call to discuss your situation,  and decide on a coaching schedule which meets your needs.   This includes when we will talk and how long our sessions will be. 

    If you are comfortable with what we have agreed upon and decide to proceed you will receive an invoice for the first block of coaching sessions.   You will also receive an intake package which we will use during our first coaching session. 

    Coaching will start in accordance with our schedule.  Phone calls are placed by you.

    Who Will Be My Personal Coach?

    Without having walked the path no one can truly understand what you may face both medically and emotionally.  I was able to find hope and conquer the challenges of infertility and can help you not only with the many decisions you will face but also allow the journey to enrich your life in ways you may not have thought possible.  

    My name is Pat Antliff.  I am not a medical expert, that is the role of your doctor.  I am a professional Coach specializing in the area of infertility and the special life challenges it brings.
