Ever feel like your mind won’t stop spinning over things you can’t control?

Try this: “Put it in the box.”

When a stressor comes up that you cannot act on right now,
a conversation, a situation, a “what if”,
mentally place it in a box and set it on a shelf.

You’re not ignoring it.
You’re not avoiding it.
You’re simply choosing not to carry it in this moment.

This is a simple nervous system tool to help reduce overwhelm, mental load, and emotional burnout, especially for women who are used to holding everything at once.

You can come back to it later…
but right now, you don’t have to carry it.

In this moment from Unsaid, infertility and grief specialist Katie Kirkenmeier, LPC, PMH-C, ATR speaks to the deep emotional impact infertility has on how women see themselves, their bodies, and their future.

Infertility isn’t just medical.
It’s psychological.
It’s relational.
It’s grief.

And healing often begins when we’re finally allowed to name what this journey is doing to us.
