More Than Your Infertility Podcast
Welcome to the More Than Your Infertility Podcast — the emotional support you didn’t know you needed while navigating IVF and infertility.
If you’re exhausted from doing all the things and still getting nowhere...
If your mind won’t stop spiraling while you wait for answers...
If you’re holding it together on the outside but quietly falling apart...
You’re not alone. And you don’t have to do this the hard way anymore.
I’m Kristin Dillensnyder — IVF mom, certified infertility mindset coach, and infertility advocate. I created this podcast because no one should have to white-knuckle their way through fertility treatments without real emotional support.
Every week, you’ll get straight-talking advice, compassionate guidance, and mindset tools that actually help. This is where you learn how to:
- Stay hopeful after a failed embryo transfer or miscarriage
- Survive the dreaded two week wait (TWW)
- Quiet the negative thought spirals that come with IVF
- Handle pregnancy announcements without crumbling
- Rebuild your belief when it feels like everyone else gets pregnant but you
- Find peace, even when nothing feels certain
Whether you’re dealing with unexplained infertility, male factor, PCOS, endometriosis, secondary infertility, donor conception, or navigating IVF solo—this podcast is for you.
You’re doing something really hard. Let me help make it feel just a little bit lighter.
Because you are so much more than your infertility—and it’s time you started feeling that way.

Is IVF Mindset Coaching Worth It? Let’s Talk About It.
Is IVF Coaching Worth It? Let’s Talk.
In this episode of the More Than Your Infertility Podcast, I tackle one of the biggest questions I get: Is IVF mindset coaching really worth it?
With coaching being an unregulated industry, it’s understandable to wonder if it’s valuable—or just another expense. I recently had the honor of being featured in The Atlantic, in an article that highlighted my work with a client but also raised questions about coaching as a whole. And I get it—there are amazing coaches and, well… not-so-great ones.
That’s why today, I’m breaking it all down for you:
✔️ How to vet a coach and know if they’re the right fit for you
✔️ The most common objections to coaching—and my honest responses
✔️ Why coaching isn’t about ‘thinking positive’—it’s about practical mindset shifts that help you navigate IVF with less stress
✔️ How coaching supports you for the hours when you’re NOT in the doctor’s office (because let’s be real—IVF consumes your mind almost 24/7)
✔️ The difference between coaching and therapy—and why they can complement each other beautifully
✔️ Why I charge for coaching (and why that’s actually a good thing)
Coaching won’t change whether an embryo implants. But it will change how you experience the IVF rollercoaster—helping you handle uncertainty, navigate tough moments, and feel more in control of your emotions instead of letting them control you.
If you’ve ever wondered if coaching is the missing piece in your fertility journey, this episode will give you the clarity you need.
