Faith, Fertility & Letting Go: How Trusting God Transforms the Journey to Conception

Can faith and fertility walk hand-in-hand?

If you're exhausted by the emotional roller coaster of trying to conceive, overwhelmed by conflicting advice, or quietly questioning your faith in the midst of your struggle, this conversation was made for you.

We’re talking about the spiritual side of fertility—something rarely addressed in traditional spaces, but deeply impactful for so many women and couples on this journey.

In this episode, I open up about my own infertility story and the ways it challenged, deepened, and ultimately transformed my faith. We explore how negative self-talk, cortisol, and chronic stress can work against your body’s ability to conceive—and how aligning your body, mind, and spirit can unlock healing in unexpected ways.

Dr. Trisha Zehrung DNP, FNP is a passionate follower of Jesus who's life mission is to help couples bring their babies into this world without feeling backed into a corner with no hope or options.

🌱 You’ll Learn:

  • Why surrender doesn’t mean giving up, but leaning in
  • How to recognize when your faith is under attack—and reclaim your hope
  • The link between belief systems, hormones, and fertility outcomes
  • What “divine timing” looks like in real life—not just as a concept
  • Tools you can use today: nutrition, supplementation, prayer, and boundaries
  • Why your spouse’s support isn’t optional—it’s foundational
  • How to release control, step away from toxic online spaces, and return to peace

🤍 This is more than just a fertility discussion. It’s an invitation to reframe your journey, to see your fertility not as a curse or diagnosis, but as a spiritual, physical, and emotional path toward wholeness.

🎧 Whether you're a believer, someone who's been burned by religion, or just searching for peace in the chaos—this conversation is filled with truth, hope, and action.
