What the F - From Infertility Exhaustion to Peace
Welcome to 'What the F - From Infertility Exhaustion to Peace' podcast.
Hi. I'm Tina. After my own four year IVF journey and having a baby at 42 years old (through IVF) I knew that my purpose in this world was to support other women on this journey too. I know what it feels like to be overwhelmed, lost in your thoughts, and alone during IVF. That’s why I’m here—to help you not feel alone.
During my own IVF journey, I discovered the power of simple yet effective tools to cope with the emotional highs and lows, rewire my thoughts, and heal from the trauma. What I needed then, and what I’m offering you now, is a safe space to explore your fears, anxieties, struggles and beliefs that may be holding you back with someone who truly understands.
At the same time I was going through my IVF treatment, I trained to become a Master NLP Practitioner and Life Coach, with over 400+ hours of practical training and 1:1 coaching with so many women. Now, I’m using everything I’ve learned to guide you through this podcast. This is a space where honest, real conversations will inspire you to move forward, especially when you feel stuck.
I really want to help you find peace, balance and self-kindness on your fertility journey. Wherever you are in your process, this podcast is about finding hope, rebuilding belief in yourself, and showing kindness to your mind and body.
I hope my words offer comfort, insight, and the support you need to transform your inner voice and find calmness. Sending love and hugs to you all.

Ep. 21 - Sex and the cycle: The emotional toll on intimacy during infertility
In today’s episode of What the F – From Infertility Exhaustion to Peace, we’re talking about something that many couples face during IVF but often feel too embarrassed or awkward to discuss: the strain on intimacy. When IVF or infertility takes over your life, sex can quickly go from an act of love and connection to something that feels more like a task or performance—all about timing, ovulation, and getting it right. But the pressure can create emotional distance, leaving you and your partner feeling disconnected.
Tina shares her personal experience of how IVF affected her relationship with her husband, Mayur, and how they found their way back to each other emotionally and physically. You’ll also hear real stories from clients who’ve faced the same challenges, and practical tips on how to rebuild intimacy during IVF, including the importance of reframing intimacy, visualisation, and self-compassion.
If you’ve been feeling like IVF has taken over your sex life and left you disconnected from your partner, this episode will give you the tools to start reconnecting, healing, and restoring the emotional and physical closeness that’s so important in your relationship.
