Want support navigating IVF? Learn more about IVF for Fat Folks
The fat-positive fertility support you deserve. In Supported, we do things differently:
Instead of telling you to lose weight, we work together to figure out what regular habits you can incorporate into your life to get you from where you are now to your own version of what health looks like.
Instead of withholding tests and treatments, we learn how to understand what’s going on in our bodies from the tools we’ve got and to advocate with healthcare professionals to influence them into providing us with the tests and treatments we need.
Instead of invalidating your lived experience and labeling you as “non-compliant”, we will work together to honour your lived experience and use that knowledge to inform the decisions you make about your body and your wellbeing.
Instead of dismissing your mental health as irrelevant, we’ll look at how being fat in our society impacts our mental health, taking care to recognise any trauma from previous healthcare interactions. We will focus on how we can support your mental health throughout your journey and use your mindset to your advantage.
Here's what's included:
Community support.
Over our time together, you will have support in a number of ways:
- monthly email check-ins for you to reflect on the steps you are taking to support your goals.
- a community space where you can post questions and seeek support from me and our community whenever you need to.
- have all your questions answered each week via weekly office hours.
- monthly group coaching calls to guide you through the work and so that I can personally answer all your questions.
During these touchpoints, you can ask any questions you have about your own experiences, your own care and any of the things you’ve worked through in the program. You might want to:
Access to the private community space with others working through the program
You will have access to the group over the time that we work together and I will be there with you every step of the way. The group will act as a place where we can get to know each other, share our experiences and questions throughout the program.
The 10-step program designed specifically for fat folks navigating fertility issues
Each module is a stand-alone guided process that will lead you through informational and mindset tools specifically designed to face the unique challenges that we see as fat people seeking fertility support. The course is 10 modules long and you’ll get access to the course content for 12 months. You can work through each module at your own pace, taking it one step at a time. Modules include: formulate your healthcare plan, creating a supportive healthcare team, preparing for healthcare appointments, building a toolkit of ways you can support your mental health, your relationship with food and so much more.
Access to the FAT+ve fertility hub
The hub contains lots of additional and extra resources to support you throughout our time together. Whilst the modules guide you through the process, the hub acts as a library that you can dip in and out of for specific resources including workbooks, meditations and so much more.
