Today, I’m thrilled to share some incredible news with you – I’m pregnant with a baby girl! But this isn’t just an announcement; it’s a powerful lesson about believing in yourself when the world tells you something isn’t possible.

Breaking Free from Limiting Beliefs

From a young age, I heard countless messages about what happens to women over 40:

  • Your energy changes
  • Your body can’t handle pregnancy
  • It’s too risky
  • It’s too late

But here’s what I learned: Those limitations only exist if you accept them.

The Power of Choosing Your Input

When I decided to pursue motherhood at 44, I made a conscious choice to:

  • Stop watching the news
  • Distance myself from negative voices
  • Ignore age-related statistics
  • Focus on my own inner wisdom

Creating Your Reality Through Affirmations

Before I even became pregnant, I incorporated this powerful affirmation into my daily practice: “I am pregnant, and it’s easy, fun, and simple.”

I said this for months, believing it with my whole heart. Why? Because I understood that your spiritual being is more powerful than your physical body.

The Results of Unwavering Faith

Now at 15 weeks pregnant:

  • No morning sickness
  • Abundant energy
  • Perfect health
  • Pure joy

Protecting Your Dream

One of the most important lessons I’ve learned is about protecting your dreams from well-meaning but harmful questions and comments. Here’s what I recommend:

  1. Set Boundaries
    • Share only with supportive people
    • Limit exposure to negative stories
    • Trust your journey
  2. Stay Connected to Your Vision
    • Daily affirmations
    • Visualization practices
    • Gratitude exercises

The Baby Girl Connection

Every day since learning we’re having a girl, I:

  • Talk to her with love
  • Share affirmations
  • Practice gratitude together
  • Visualize our beautiful future

The Weight of Negative Thoughts

Here’s a powerful metaphor I want to share: Every negative thought you carry is like a 20-pound dumbbell. If you’re carrying five negative thoughts, that’s 100 pounds of unnecessary weight.

Ask yourself:

  • “Does it serve me to carry this weight?”
  • “What benefit do I get from these thoughts?”
  • “How would I feel if I set them down?”

Your Journey, Your Rules

Remember this truth: Just because someone else experienced something one way doesn’t mean that’s your path. Whether you’re:

  • Pursuing motherhood
  • Building a business
  • Chasing a dream
  • Making a life change

The only limits that truly exist are the ones you accept.

The Power of Trust

When you fully trust yourself and your journey:

  • Obstacles become opportunities
  • Fears become fuel
  • Dreams become reality
  • Age becomes just a number

Your Call to Action

Today, I challenge you to identify one dream you’ve been told is “impossible.” Write it down, and then write this affirmation:

“I am capable of achieving this, and it’s easy, fun, and simple.”

Say it daily for the next 30 days. Don’t tell anyone about your practice – just watch how your reality begins to shift.
