IVF This Podcast Episode 185: IVF and Graduating

 In this episode, we explore assumptive reasoning — the brain’s shortcut for filling in the blanks — and how it shows up during IVF. Learn how to recognize when your mind is screaming assumptions, and how to reconnect with the quieter whisper of your intuition instead.
