Fertility
“I’m in rooms with women and there is such a shroud of secrecy and shame. I mean, there’s back entrances, there are people who will come get you from your car with an umbrella. The idea of being found out, like going to a fertility doctor? Oh my god, the jig is up. I’d rather be the guinea pig and speak about the process to demystify it.” —Gabrielle Union
LET’S TALK: WHAT READERS ARE SAYING
I have been making large batches of food (ie- I made four meat loaves a few days ago) and delivering packages to my vulnerable neighbor and two older (senior) co-workers who are laid off. I used single-use aluminum pans so no one has to give them back. Next I’m making lasagnas. I also made an appointment to donate blood for the first time and I’m going there first thing in the morning.
- DaniI'm so glad you mentioned The Nap Ministry. It's been so interesting to see how my mentality toward working/productivity/rest has changed incorporating their advice. It's also been interesting to see how often I need their reminders to take a minute for myself. Unlearning our culture of productivity is an arduous process.
