Reclaiming Your Hue
Ep. 48 with Erica Roelike | Owner & Founder, Elevate Results Consulting
Infertility, Identity & Redefining Motherhood
In this poignant and deeply personal episode, Erica Roelike shares her journey through infertility with honesty, grace, and grounded wisdom. A seasoned HR consultant and business owner, Erica brings us into her world — one where life, loss, hope, and healing coexist.
💡 Key Themes:
- No Playbook for This
Coming from a family of entrepreneurs, Erica draws a parallel between business and motherhood: neither come with a manual. Her journey through infertility reminded her how unique every path is — full of unknowns, shifting plans, and hard decisions. - Infertility & Independence
Married in 2017, Erica and her husband began trying to conceive soon after. What followed were years of IUI and IVF — filled with emotion, injections, schedules, and difficult choices. As an independent woman, Erica bore much of the burden alone, administering shots herself, even at social gatherings. She opens up about the mental weight of doing so quietly and the toll of not sharing in real-time. - The Room That Stayed Empty
One of the most moving parts of Erica’s story is her reflection on the room in her home that was supposed to be a nursery — a silent witness to years of hope and heartbreak. While they’ve since closed the door on both IVF and adoption, that room now holds space for a different kind of future — one rooted in peace, not pain. - Faith, Grief & Growth
Initially distant from her faith, Erica and her husband slowly found their way back to church, building spiritual strength together — not in pursuit of an answer, but in pursuit of unity. She now leans on her faith not for explanations, but for grounding and gratitude. - Love Language, Self-Care, and Showing Up
Whether it’s getting dressed every day, cooking, going to therapy, or hosting loved ones, Erica emphasizes intentionality. Her love language is food and hospitality, and she’s discovered how these small rituals keep her centered. - The Power of the Village
From launching her business post-house fire to navigating fertility treatments, Erica has leaned on her inner circle — educating and growing with those willing to truly empathize. She now aims to be that light for others, offering support and insight for women navigating similar terrain.
Advice to Her Younger Self:
Open up sooner. Don’t wait to find your tribe. Your story isn’t a burden.
Advice For Other Women:
You are not alone. Even if your motherhood doesn’t look like everyone else’s — you still belong.
