There are some stories that linger with you long after the conversation ends, and Tanya’s is one of them. Not because everything wrapped up neatly with a positive pregnancy test (hers hasn’t yet), but because of how clearly you can hear the voice of God woven through every painful, confusing, stretching moment of her journey.

Tanya is a dentist, a Navy veteran, and a woman with a heart that beats to serve others. She volunteers in the church nursery, she leads small groups with her husband, and she pours herself out even when her own heart is bruised. When she sat down with me to talk about her infertility story, she shared it all with incredible honesty: the hope, the loss, the confusion, and the unexpected deepening of her faith.

The Long Road

When Tanya and her husband began trying, nothing happened. Not a single positive test for over a year. She went to an infertility clinic because her doctor referred her, but everything came back “normal.” Blood work fine. Tubes clear. No explanation. Six months later, she finally saw a positive. And two days later, she miscarried.

But the story didn’t end there. Her HCG numbers began rising again. She found herself in the ER the following week, where doctors discovered it was actually an ectopic pregnancy. Her world stopped. Her left tube was affected. Her hope felt crushed. It would have been easy for her faith to collapse under the weight of that loss. Instead, God began reshaping it.

A Faith That Was Rocked – and Strengthened

Tanya told me, “My prayers changed.” She stopped praying, “Lord, let this be the month,” and began praying, “Lord, let me want You more than I want this baby.” That shift didn’t come from willpower, it came from walking with God through suffering. She described the spirals that hit with pregnancy announcements, the moments she thought about quitting the nursery, the nights she felt completely undone.

But she also shared this: “God never lets me stay there. He meets me in the moment. He pulls me out.” And that’s where the beauty of her story shines brightest, not in the outcome, but in the intimacy forged with God in the waiting.

After her ectopic pregnancy, the clinic suggested IUI, and because the military covered the cost, it made sense practically. But spiritually? She felt unsettled the entire time. “I don’t think this is what God wants for me – not right now,” she said. “I think that’s why I felt no peace.” After two rounds, she stopped. Not out of fear. Out of obedience. And that’s when she found my podcast, specifically the episodes on progesterone, and realized, “This is what everyone has been missing. My hormones aren’t being addressed.”

Finding Fertility Framework

Tanya prayed before joining my program, worried this would be “one more thing that didn’t work.” But her husband encouraged her, saying, “This aligns with what you believe. You haven’t tried this yet.” Inside the course, she immediately resonated with the faith-centered approach. She didn’t want a strategy apart from God. She wanted wisdom from Him.

When we built her personalized support plan, it felt overwhelming at first. Changes to food, exercise, routine, adrenal support… it was a lot. But she didn’t force it all at once. She brought every single piece to the Lord. She told me the story of driving home from a hot yoga class, seeing tunnel vision, nearly passing out, and realizing God was telling her, “This is too much for your body. It’s time to stop.” And she did. That day.

Slowly her hormones began stabilizing. Her energy returned. Her spotting improved. Her PMS decreased. Her Inito charts confirmed her cycles were strengthening. And when she finally saw a functional provider, that doctor said, “Your hormone ratios look amazing… what are you doing?”

One of my favorite things she said was this: “Less has been more in this season.” Less intensity. Less striving. Less pressure. More sleep. More connection with God. More listening. More healing.

You can hear it in her voice. This is a woman grounded in surrender, not striving. She’s not stuffing her emotions or pretending this journey is easy. But she’s walking with the Lord through every wave of longing and every moment of hope.

What Her Story Means For You

Tanya said something at the end that I’ll never forget: “This course is a blessing that keeps blessing others.”

That’s exactly what I pray it is for every woman who enters Fertility Framework, not just information about hormones, but a foundation of faith, discernment, and confidence in what God is doing in your body. And if you are in the waiting right now, I want you to hear this: God does not waste the wait. He is forming something in you that is just as important as the child you’re praying for.
