Have you ever found yourself clinging to a dream that feels out of reach, wondering if God is even listening?
For many Christian mompreneurs, infertility and pregnancy loss are deeply painful experiences that challenge their faith and identity. This week on The Organized Mompreneur Podcast, Dr. Trisha Zehrung opens up about her journey of navigating recurrent pregnancy loss, launching a faith-based fertility practice, and learning to surrender control in both motherhood and business.
After experiencing her own fertility struggles, Dr. Trisha decided to change the traditional fertility narrative and help busy couples optimize their fertility and fast-track their path to parenthood through natural and holistic solutions. Dr. Trisha is a nurse practitioner and fertility consultant with 12+ years of clinical experience. Dr. Trisha has also presented at conferences and is a published author in numerous journals, including Nurse Educator.
From Loss to Calling: Dr. Trisha’s Story
Trisha began her career in traditional medicine, working as a busy NP while newly married and ready to start a family. Her first pregnancy ended in a miscarriage—a loss she had never expected and didn’t feel equipped to process. She continued working through the loss, stuck in the grind, not realizing how much she was neglecting her own needs.
As she began sharing her story, she discovered just how many women silently carry the pain of miscarriage. When two more back-to-back miscarriages followed, she was told she’d need to lose another baby before testing could be done. That response ignited a holy discontent in her heart.
Trisha knew there had to be a better way.
Combining her medical knowledge, functional training, and personal experience, she created her own holistic fertility practice, centered on hope, action, and faith.
Why So Many Women Feel Alone
Traditional healthcare often misses the mark for women struggling with fertility. Trisha highlights common frustrations her clients face:
- Feeling dismissed after loss and told to “just try again”
- Facing year-long waits before testing is offered
- Being pushed toward IVF without exploring holistic options
- Carrying shame and guilt in silence, especially in Christian circles
Trisha is passionate about helping women and couples understand that fertility struggles are not their fault. She equips them with practical tools to nourish their bodies, regulate their nervous systems, and prepare for conception in a sustainable way.
The Spiritual Side of Surrender
One of the most powerful takeaways from this episode is how Trisha weaves faith into her fertility work. She reminds us that:
- The “baby” can become an idol when our desire for control overshadows our trust in God
- Surrendering the outcome doesn’t mean giving up—it means putting our hope in God’s timing
- Couples often experience breakthrough when they stop striving and start resting in God
This surrender mirrors the entrepreneurial journey. As Trisha explains, running a business from a place of desperation often leads to burnout, misaligned clients, and spiritual fatigue. When we let God lead—in both business and fertility—we experience more peace, clarity, and joy.
Business + Fertility: Lessons That Overlap
Here are some parallels Trisha draws between entrepreneurship and fertility:
- Desperation is dangerous: Whether it’s clients or conception, striving in our own strength leads to stress and scarcity.
- Routine can become ritual: Quiet time with God shouldn’t be a checkbox. True transformation comes from stillness and listening.
- Delays can be divine: Sometimes the “no” or “not yet” is God’s protection or preparation.
- Resilience is required: Whether you’re navigating loss or business setbacks, keep getting back up. God is refining you through the fire.
Encouragement for Christian Moms in Waiting
Trisha’s message is filled with hope: God sees you. Whether you’re walking through infertility, pregnancy loss, or simply feeling stuck in your business, He is working behind the scenes. Your job is to trust, stay in the Word, and take the next small step.
If you need someone to walk alongside you, Trisha offers free fertility breakthrough sessions and a wealth of encouragement on Instagram. She also has a new podcast launching soon to continue these powerful conversations.
