The Days That Don't Make the Calendar: A candid walk through IVF's unspoken moments, from someone who's lived every one Thursday, January 29th at 11am EST / 8am PST This session offers doulas a rare, first-person glimpse into the emotional IVF timeline, those quiet, pivotal days that never make it into medical charts but shape everything about the journey. This workshop will cover: A lived overview of IVF, how different paths and protocols can look on paper, and how they feel in real life The invisible emotional timeline that runs parallel to the IVF protocol What clients are really experiencing in the waiting periods, the hope cycles, and the in-between moments How to hold space for the full complexity of this journey with presence, not pressure This workshop is led by Pamala Gomes, founder of Solacove Pamala Gomes is the founder of Solacove, an IVF care space offering membership support and thoughtfully assembled cycle-care boxes for every stage of the IVF journey.
