The Village Sessions28 Feb 2025

IVF & the cost of bypassing our humanity

in this episode of the village sessions, we bring in multiple perspectives to paint a big picture of the relationship between the modern woman & IVF. how did we get here, & where does it end in the process of eugenics?

as the birth control & fertility industries are a classic case of "create the problem, then sell the solution," we talk about the ethics & longterm costs of forcing pregnancy into a body that is saying "no."

we break down the energetic states underneath "infertility," as well as share our perspectives of what we have witnessed in spaces of working with thousands of women through seasons of them trying to conceive a baby.

michale also adds her real-life experience with working on babies born via IVF & frozen embryos, and what she notices in the quality of their bodies & glitches in their timelines.

this is a holistic conversation about the power of choice & alignment, as well as move-towards strategies for families who are seeking fertility themselves or vitality for previously conceived IVF children.

|| if you are wondering where to find michale's pyramid of stability model— she teaches it in her mentorship containers, rooted families, & the soon-to-be vessel offering ||
