The Waiting Well - Infertility, Faith-based Encouragement, Trying to Conceive, Fertility

If you’ve ever felt like you’re standing on the outside looking in — watching others step into the motherhood role you long for — you’re not alone. In today’s episode, we’re naming the ache to belong that so many women silently carry during their fertility journey. From the pain of not holding the title “mom” yet, to the emotional weight of feeling left out of the motherhood community, we unpack how God wired us for connection — and how our truest belonging is found in Him, not in our circumstances. Courtney shares a raw personal story of uprooting her life from Maui to Texas and how it revealed deeper lessons about identity, grief, and grounding your worth beyond roles or recognition. Rooted in Scripture and full of practical encouragement, this episode offers a new way to see the season of waiting: not as punishment, but as an invitation to be anchored in God’s love. Whether you’re feeling overlooked, left out, or just deeply weary, this episode is a reminder: You already belong — because you are His. 🔗 Apply Now to Join The Waiting Well Framework! 💫 This Christ-centered 8-week mentorship is open for ongoing enrollment.
