In this LL, Lisa comes on to discuss “Is Happiness a Choice?”- what the experts say, and her recent findings of her expanded definition of “happiness”.



She spills:
The METREAT- why she created it and what her participants can expect in Guatemala next week!
What “happiness” means beyond smiles
The building blocks of happiness- and why so many of us are “not happy”

Intro Jingle by Alyssa Chase aka <a href="https://www.instagram.com/findyoursails/">@findyoursails</a>

In the age of social media, filters, and highlight reels, we work tirelessly to make sure no one sees our cracks, faults, and the messy moments. But what if we let our human show? What if instead, we strived for unconditional vulnerability? Only then could we stay soft in life’s hardest moments and show up as our TRUE selves – the version of us the world needs.  On The Truthiest Life, host Lisa Hayim shares tips, tools, and conversations that will leave you inspired and ready to live your own truthiest life.

Lisa Lately: Is Happiness a Choice?

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/df7367f2-61ce-4a7e-8465-afee01402226/transcript

In this episode, Lisa opens up about the cervical cerclage—or “stitch”—she received at 24 weeks pregnant to help prevent preterm labor. While the procedure was medically “simple” and technically successful, the emotional experience left her feeling raw, vulnerable, and deeply shaken.

Lisa shares her story to help you feel more empowered, choice-full, and autonomous—no matter what your pregnancy journey looks like.

She talks about:

- What a cervical cerclage is, and what’s considered normal (and not) for a cervix

- How she’s making peace with a medical-intervention-heavy pregnancy

- How she stayed connected to herself during moments of dissociation

- The challenge of maintaining autonomy when you're treated as just a “patient”

Lisa’s Cervical Cerclage + Navigating Medical Trauma

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/cc6ce893-60e3-4b1c-a1f2-b2b500309038/transcript

After a 14-month surprise infertility battle, Lisa is emerging from what she calls the “infertility underworld” to share her path to pregnancy.

Getting pregnant with her first child was effortless, but this time, she felt like a science project. Determined to solve her fertility challenges naturally, she spent months trying to “fix” things on her own—only to realize that she needed outside help. Despite her initial resistance to fertility treatments, she ultimately turned to medical professionals. However, finding the right team was not easy. The so-called “best and top” specialists often made her feel broken rather than supported. Through trial and error, she learned that pregnancy and birth are a time to surround yourself with people who make you feel whole, not like a problem to be solved.

For those still navigating infertility’s “underworld,” Lisa sees and is rooting for you!

In this episode, Lisa covers:

- Her journey to getting pregnant with her second child

- The gap in fertility support—why there’s little guidance for women before resorting to costly medical treatments

- Maternal preoccupation—how can modern, working women balance careers when fertility planning takes over their lives?

- “You’ve got time!”—is this reassuring or misleading? Why women deserve real education about their individual fertility

- Technology & fertility tracking—the best high-tech and low-cost options for understanding cycles and hormones
