Hey Gorgeous, if you want success on your fertility journey, you’ve got to have the mindset for it. It’s time to kick fear, negativity, doubt, shame, jealousy, and the whole clown car of low vibe fertility journey BS to the curb. I’m your host, Roseanne Austin, fertility mindset master, former prosecutor and recovering type A control freak perfectionist.
I use the power of mindset to get pregnant naturally and have my baby boy at 43. Despite years of fertility treatment failure, I help women across the globe beat the odds on their fertility journey, just like I did. Get ready for a quick hit of confidence, joy, feminine badassery, and loads of hell yes for your fertility journey.
It’s time to get fearless, baby. Fearlessly fertile. Let’s do this. Welcome to the Fearlessly Fertile Podcast, episode 147. Wanna boost your intuition and wisdom? Do this. Hey loves, woo wee! We are getting into one of the busiest holiday weeks of the year. It’s crunch time, baby! This time of year is really special and full of opportunities to bask in the love and excitement that’s all around.
It can also be full of complex decisions, familial machinations, and sometimes painful visits from the ghost of Christmas past. This is where our trusty intuition and wisdom come into play. Most people just grin and bear shit. Mama’s got you covered because this week you get to make the choice here and now That love.
You get to do better than that. Why? Because you want better. If you didn’t, you wouldn’t be listening to this podcast. Now, let’s start by acknowledging that there is a great deal of mythology floating around out there about intuition and the wisdom it avails. But I assure you that one doesn’t have to light candles or levitate around their home in order to connect to either.
The process is far simpler. To demonstrate that, I want to share something with you by Danish philosopher and theologian Søren Kierkegaard. When I first heard this piece, It really caught my attention about how simple and available things like intuition, wisdom, and discernment are to us, but it takes a step that most of us completely, I don’t know, run away from, like our hair’s on fire.
But I think that you’re going to get this in, in just the simplicity and beauty of the words. And here’s what he has to say. As my prayer became more attentive and inward, I had less and less to say. I finally became completely silent. I started to listen, which is even further removed from speaking. I first thought that praying entailed speaking.
I then learned that praying is hearing. Not merely being silent. That is how it is. To pray does not mean to listen to oneself speaking. Prayer involves becoming silent and being silent. And waiting until God is heard. I love what Kierkegaard is saying here because the intuition, wisdom, and discernment that we crave comes from within.
It comes from our connection to the divine silence, the whispers, and the nudges we all feel from something higher, but are all too often taught to distrust. Laugh at as superstition and ultimately betray it is our betrayal of that still small voice of God universe source that causes us to distrust to feel disconnected and live in suspicion and you know exactly what I’m talking about that part of you that lives this journey with a chip on her shoulder that part of you that thinks that those trying to help you or just trying to get your money the part of you that pours gasoline on the idea that no one out there is The part of you that looks at your life from the perspective of what you stand to lose versus what you stand to gain.
The part of you that masochistically wallows in, See? I told you it wouldn’t work! The part of you that calls you needy for desiring love and community. And the part of you that says you are a fool for believing. In the truth, you know, to the core of your soul, the road back to intuition, wisdom and discernment is paved with silence.
It’s about turning down the noise of the outside world and being receptive to the sound of silence. That may sound more poetic than useful, but trust me, it’s not. We tend to distract ourselves from pain and truth with noise. We procrastinate from hearing what’s in the silence with an endless list of to dos and shoulds.
Then, we get pissed off at God Universe Source, Gus, for not helping his sister out. But that shit was there the whole time. Truth. All of this is to invite you lovingly into some silence this week. This isn’t an invitation to an existential crisis, it’s just silence. I think one of the most profound ways to experience this is to get present and listen.
This can happen when you are alone, or interestingly enough, when you’re with others. There can be noise all around you, but you can still find the silence. When you do, you will notice so much. There is something wildly reassuring and peaceful in it. Don’t be afraid of it. Don’t criticize it. Just be with it.
When you do so, you invite your intuition, wisdom, and discernment in, and tap into a frequency of peace. and knowing. This is one of the ways in which you’ll find peace, clarity, and calm no matter what the holiday season or this journey throws you. So here’s an exercise to take what I’ve shared here to the next level.
Ignite your intuition. By saying less and listening more. Step 1. Decide that you’re going to get your ass some Silence ASAP. I strongly suggest that when it comes to silence, you want to sip from it. Not try and drink from it like a fire hose. Like a fine single malt scotch, sip the silence. Starting today, set the timer on your phone for two minutes.
And for that two minutes, sit in silence. No distractions from your phone, it is just there to time you. Turn it over when the clock starts and just sit. No need to close your eyes, meditate, or anything else. Just take in the silence. Your brain will not be silent, and that’s fine. This is more of a feeling exercise.
You can’t do it wrong, so just do it. Notice what it feels like to be in your body when you do this. Does your brain automatically tell you this is stupid woo woo fluff? If so, that’s a huge hint. That there is a golden nugget you are about to find in the silence and your saboteurs are just trying to throw you off the scent.
Bottom line, take the two minutes of silence daily for the next seven days. For some of you, this exercise will be easy. But instead of blowing this off as easy, I’m going to challenge you to go deeper into the silence for that two minutes. Go deeper! The silence is infinite, just like the divine intelligence that lives in it.
Step two. Use this appreciation for silence to listen more. Step one was about getting acquainted and deepening your relationship to the silence through constant spaced repetition. This, step two, is about practicing it with other people. This might look like keeping your mouth shut during a conversation and really connecting energetically with a person that’s speaking.
Don’t waste your time trying to think of what to say. Just be with them. This is true even in your work relationships. I know you might want to strangle half the people that you work with, but just run with me on this. When you shut your mouth and get present in order to truly hear someone, It’s crazy the level of nuance you pick up.
Maybe somebody that you want to strangle, well, maybe they aren’t such an asshole. You might pick up on some insecurity, you might pick up on some fear that your saboteurs and your own ego have tried to blind you with. When you shut your mouth and get present in order to truly hear someone, Like I said before, it’s insane what you’re going to pick up.
Ten years in the courtroom honed my listening skills, and I gotta tell ya, it’s fascinating what you will pick up on when you just shut your trap and listen. The truth is everywhere. If you are willing to listen, the coolest thing ever is that when you get comfortable in silence, you will become really, really good as a listener, and you will hear the truth.
People speak, as well as the truth in your own heart. Your intuition will seem like your best friend. You’ll become more confident that the answers will be shown and your connection to others will deepen. Which will only fuel compassion. Because you aren’t deafened by your own nonsensical internal dialogue.

It will just, ah, it’ll just make you feel so good to show your gratitude for this free content my team and I serve you with every week. Love, there is a knowing within you right now. There is a part of you that knows that your desire to be a mom is valid, righteous, and true. The only question, really, is whether you will find a way past the decades of mental programming that tells you that only statistics matter, that the white coats know more, and that your unique, quote unquote, history of failure make you a fool to believe.
Your belief system will determine whether you live this journey as the creative, resourceful, and whole being you were created to be, or whether you will succumb to the paper tiger of fear. Women who succeed on this journey use their intuition, wisdom, and birthright of discernment to see past the distractions.
And stay focused on the truth. You were meant to be a mom. Make the new year, the year when you truly learned how to think like a success story.
