Dr. Millie Lytle, The Energy ND, is a speaker, author, researcher, certified hypnotist, and naturopathic medicine consultant specializing in the intersection of vital health, energetic flow, and high-level strategic decision-making.
For years, I was trapped in a contradiction. My professional life was spent as a perinatal expert—a doula, coach, and ND—devoted to helping others bring life into the world. Yet, my personal life was unstable, plagued by my constantly forcing the baby issue, which created deep misalignment and chaos.
My rock-bottom moment came when I realized I couldn't solve this with more doing or learning. That’s when one single, essential question stripped away all the external pressure.
My unique question was: "If I have to do it alone, would I still want a baby?"
The answer was a clear, convincing No. This was not the solution I thought I was seeking, but it was the profound clarity I desperately needed. It allowed me to instantly relinquish the fear, stabilize my personal life, and make the aligned decision to shift my career away from a topic that had become a source of internal conflict.
My problem was solved not by becoming a mother, but by making a decision that brought peace and freedom.
