for those trying to be parents
Positive Mindset, Self Care and Community
Coach Led 24/7 Wraparound Care and Support
This isn't what you're used to.
You were told that when you work hard, you get results, right?
Me too. Then I learned the hard way that this isn't always true.
Let me tell you my story:
At my first fertility consult
...my doctor, a brisk woman who told me off when I checked my phone for cycle dates (“Just tell me the dates of your last periods!” ) concluded that I was, drum roll please:
Very Stressed.
One of the (many) reasons?
I was used to getting what I wanted when I worked hard and now: nothing was happening.
I was doing everything right and
I wasn’t getting the result I wanted.
Cue uncontrollable sobbing.
(From me. Not her, she was fine.
She’d seen it a million times before.)
The thing is, she was right. I was...
Stressed
Exhausted
Scared
But it wasn't because I was doing it all wrong.
It was not my fault.
It was because the message I was getting was so incredibly stressful, scary and entirely focused on what I needed to be doing and must NOT do (and nothing to do with what my husband should or shouldn't be doing btw).
According to the info I could find at the time:
Infertility was going to wreck my relationship
If we had to go down the treatment path, IVF would be horrendous
The onus was all on me (the woman) to be a perfect vision of health, positivity and relaxation
I felt like I needed a PHD in fertility and a Masters in wellness not to mention a Doctorate in how to cope with every day emotional triggers; do my job; sleep right, eat right, take the right supplements BUT not get stressed about any of it because stress was bad and whatever I did I absolutely had TO RELAX.
I look back now at the woman I was and I want to give her the biggest hug.
She was doing her best with the cards she’d been dealt and she simply did not have the information, support or
TRUST AND BELIEF to know how to approach it differently.
What if there was a better way?
What if, instead of thinking "I have to do everything perfectly and make this happen as soon as possible" was an (understandably) misguided approach?
What if I had been taught and mentored throughout, to:
Feel and process my emotions safely
Interrupt thought patterns and old subconscious beliefs
Foster a genuinely positive mindset
Have tools to cope with fear, overwhelm and anxiety
Imagine if I had been able to...
Learn about nutrition without being scared to eat a piece of ham or have a glass of wine
Go for the promotion without trying to micro-manage my own stress levels .
Know exactly how to say no to baby showers without decimating friendships and EVEN enjoy them
Book holidays or move house instead of feeling completely stuck while everyone else moved on with their lives
Reader, that is exactly what I discovered. I read a life changing book, self coached myself and rewired my brain. I no longer felt stuck; I was in control of my life, I realised whether or not I had a baby, I was going to be OK. I wasn't scared any more.
I still cried when treatment didn't work; I wasn't a robot.
I was the opposite: I was fully alive again.
Now, as a trained expert and someone who understands infertility; trying to conceive and longing for a child at the deepest level,
I created the thing I wished I had:
Life Raft members are experiencing a
completely different fertility voyage to you right now.
They’re supported, fully and generously by an experienced, certified, leading and award winning transformative coach (hi! me!).
They learn my trademarked, proven system The Life Raft Framework and they use it every day (which means they can do all of the things above)
When they feel lonely they connect with an engaged, kind and understanding community full of like minded people in our group or live calls.
They have their thoughts, feelings, emotions and fears heard and listened to with empathy and compassion.
They’ve swapped drowning in overwhelm for learning what to do when overwhelm or fear strikes.
They are given tools and strategies to process the scary ‘what if this never happens’/ ‘when is it going to be my turn?’ /‘this is so f****ing UNFAIR’ thoughts.
They have an OCEAN of guides, workshops and courses at their fingertips through our private app, to instantly get the exact support they need for every stage of their journey.
If they don't even know what they need, they just ask and receive appropriate signposting and support.
The Life Raft Process
Step One
With our step by step On Board pathway, new members are guided every day, so they can tick off their progress within the first 10 days of joining.
Step Two
After 10 days of checking in, with a few minutes a day they start to feel a shift inside, impacting how they think; physically and emotionally feel and act
Step Three
After 30 days, they know the Life Raft Framework, my coaching system which instils a sense of control while offering fresh energy and perspective
Step Four
They’ve decided whether or not to use the community ; whether they do or they don’t, they feel a deep sense of connection. They know it’s there if and when they choose to use it.
Step Five
They’ve been introduced to the live event calendar and have noted the live support for that month in their diary; knowing it’s entirely their decision whether they use this or not
Step Six
They’re able to acknowledge what they need day to day; to honour their cycles; energy and grief plus, how to foster a positive mindset; work on old thought patterns and beliefs and welcome new energy
They notice they start to physically feel more energised; their mind is clearing.
They start to do things they haven’t done for ages and begin to feel a sense of empowerment in saying no to things they don’t want to do.
Once they’ve felt this shift, they’re ready to dive into the library of curated, specialist and ever growing resources from leading fertility, wellness and mindset experts.
MENTORED AND GUIDED EVERY DAY.
Everything you need is waiting for you, the moment you decide you're worth feeling better
Community
Coach-led Community: unlike most fertility support hubs, this is completely different.
Founded by Alice, an experienced, certified coach who has been running and holding large groups of people every day online since 2020, we know exactly how to ensure everyone gets what they need; the group is carefully moderated to ensure the energy is positive and focused on the Life Raft Framework as our underlying pillar, while also holding space for all the thoughts and feelings that need to be heard.
We have guidelines members must adhere to and specific chats available so you can choose what you see day to day.
Live Calls
We have at least two live calls every month with Alice (or leading guest expert). Our monthly women’s circle and monthly coaching calls are deeply transformative for our members.
Peer led Calls - every week you have the opportunity to connect with your peers to listen and share intentions for the week in our Monday Mindset Mates calls. Here our members follow a simple structure to their call, sharing what’s going on for them; what column of their Life Raft they are in right now and their intentions for the week ahead.
RESOURCE HUB
The most INCREDIBLE Resource Hub with meditations, courses, workshops and ebooks like: the Mindset for Fertility Treatment Course; the Two Week Wait Course and The Trigger Balm Kit.
An incredible library of guest expert sessions with practical information from like leading nutritionists and medical consultants; to completely holistic offerings like sound baths and trauma release workshops, ensuring your mind, body and spirit is held with care and compassion.
Think of it like the Netflix of leading positive fertility support.
You use what you need, when you need it.
"It feels small (even though I know it’s not) but it doesn’t feel like a big anonymous group (like on Facebook). It feels personal and special!"

Previous Life Raft member
"The feeling of community and people having your back is priceless"
"I've never done anything like this before but so glad I found this on my journey"
"I was sceptical at first... but this is one of the best things I could have done...
...I’ve gained so much from it.
Finding Alice and subsequently joining The Life Raft was a real turning point for me in my infertility journey... without this I don’t think I’d have the skills I’ve had to try and get me through this really tough time - and also the next chapter I have ahead. I definitely recommend it”
Emily - Life Raft Crew Member
"The Life Raft made a huge difference in how I felt in myself, and how I managed all of the different emotions I was feeling.
I honestly can't speak highly enough about it and I recommend you and your work to anyone I know who is going through something similar."

"The feeling of community and people having your back is priceless."
"I joined the life raft at the start of this year and it has been an absolute life line for me. You are an incredible person Alice and have created such an amazing thing for those struggling with fertility. I will be forever grateful for your support and for the life raft…it made me feel connected for the first time in our 3 year struggle and I was able to not only not feel alone anymore but was armed with tools that got me through so much."
"I just want to say I love this space and the app…it is so good and so much better than shitty Google!!!!"
"The life raft has completely changed my mindset around infertility, the community is so supportive. I look forward to the calls and how they make me feel afterwards. The resources we have access to are amazing."
"This groups has been invaluable for me. I have put into effect lots of the tips and tricks that I have learnt from Alice and I’m really grateful for this safe space. When I feel that the world outside doesn’t understand me, I know I can always come here for support."
"The support of the life raft is truly life changing. I feel seen, held and am so thankful to have the wonderful resources and spaces to pick me up and keep me going throughout this journey. It feels like a hug and is incredible to be part of a community who just get it, when so many in my ‘real’ life struggle to understand. Alice and Lucy you are a dream! Thank you <3"
"I'd have been stuck in a very dark place without the Life Raft. Honestly."
"It is so wonderful having the life raft, I joined after Reclaim last year and couldn't be without it x"
"The life raft has been so helpful 🙌"
"the Life Raft is what keeps me afloat (pun intended!)"
"It changed my life and made me feel safe - and I really want that for you too!"
"I am so grateful to have found the life raft! The support of everyone is so amazing. The mindset work is so inspiring and helpful! Thank you thank you! 🙌😘
I’m so grateful for this community, it has taught me that solidarity and compassion are everything, and that it is possible to reframe how i think about this journey
There are so many fertility-related communities and I feel lucky to have found one that was exactly what I need. It helps me every day, no matter how I am feeling.
I am so grateful for the Life Raft community making me feel less alone, and for reclaiming myself on this journey xx"
"The life raft is just the most wonderful support network. It feels like a big hug and is such a relief to be surrounded by people who just get it when it feels like no one else understands how you’re feeling. The value for money is also incredible - access to so many amazing workshops both informative and emotionally supportive. I’m so grateful to have found this community and don’t know what I’d do without it xx"
"I joined the Life Raft which became a constant source of support for me whilst going through treatment and when it sadly didn't work at Christmas time. To have a group of people who understood what I was going through and how I felt (with no judgements!) really was invaluable and I can't put into words how much it helped me get through. I looked forward to the calls and always felt more empowered, educated and happier after them."
"Life Raft is a unique concept and community for mindset motivation and peer support without comparison. The tools have helped me reframe my thoughts and actually have fun again alongside ongoing fertility treatments."
"The Life Raft (and Reclaim) was literally a lifeline for me and I don't think I could've functioned without it."
"It has been my "life raft" since I did reclaim 2 years ago"
"I can't imagine not having this support"
"Life Raft = more support than from friends! everyone gets it x"
"Life raft is the best support ❤️"
"I do feel I would cry at this point if there wasn't the option of the Life Raft - that is your impact Alice!!!"
"I love the Life Raft - my husband says it should be available on the NHS!
Sick of waiting?
This is your sign to start moving forwards now, with step by step guidance, support and coaching.
Imagine the difference you could feel in just one week if you start today.
If you've landed here it's because you've had enough of waiting and this is something you can do, right now, to take ownership of your life story.
You barely have to risk anything because there’s no tie in.
But I bet when you join you stay…because the majority of my members discover that the Life Raft is for Life.
I teach you, coach you and mentor you through each stage of this journey.
So my hunch is, that once you try it and understand how deeply this work goes (I am a transformative coach - I go DEEP!) you’re going to want to stay for every stage you go through, whatever happens because we’ve got the experience and resources to support you through it all.
Who is it for?
If you know what it is to long for a child and you're ready to feel positive, empowered and back to yourself again, while knowing you can always share your vulnerabilities, fears and truth in a non-judgemental environment focused on compassionate mindset work: this is for you.
Trying to conceive
donor conception
solo by choice
pregnancy loss
fertility treatment

never been pregnant
secondary infertility
same sex
This is not for you if
You don't want to watch online content
You don't want to learn the Life Raft Framework
You don't want to connect with others
There's no requirement to do all of three of these things, but if you don't want to do any of them then the Life Raft simply won't work for you.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
You need to know this is a safe place. You need to know your time, money and energy will
be invested well. You need to know this won't just be another thing 'to do'.
I've got you!
I'm going through secondary infertility, is this right for me?
This is a safe place for anyone longing for a baby, no matter the circumstances. We have lots of women in this position who connect through our private chat room to share the specific difficulties secondary infertility brings. The whole group works on mindset, release work and inner self compassion continuously, so the energy in the space - whether on our calls or the community in our app - is incredibly supportive, kind and understanding.
How often are the live support calls? What if I can't make them?
The Life Raft has 2 live calls a month, plus weekly peer-led accountability calls. They are always supported (apart from our monthly Cuppa and Chat calls, so everyone feels comfortable to share if they want to). Whether you choose to use the live support or not, you will still gain an enormous amount from your resources and the community. It's entirely up to you to choose how to use the Raft.
I live in Australia/the US/somewhere that's not the UK. Is that a problem?
Not at all! We have a beautiful global community and I love that so many members are based all over the world.
I'm a bit apprehensive. I'm just not sure it's for me?
If you're feeling pulled towards something; ready for a change and there's even just an inkling that this could be the start of it...come and see what it's like. It is a warm, safe place focussed on positive and gentle self compassion. If you ever feel like you're not sure where to start, we are a very friendly bunch - so all you need to do is reach out. We'll be there. Four Tops style. (Is that cultural reference still remotely viable?!).
Can't I just get all this from free FB groups, YouTube and Google?
Wellll, you could probably find lots of good stuff out there, sure. Or you could follow the Life Raft process, learn the Life Raft coaching Framework and have a compass to use for the rest of your life! You can also know that every piece of content in the Life Raft is curated and crafted for you straight from the heart! This really is a unique community with the a tapestry of offerings. It's not just a load of fertility advice. You're a human being and we cater for that human-ness holistically
Is this just for women?
While we're VERY aware of the desperate need for better support for men, at the moment the Life Raft is just for women. If you identify as non-binary or a trans person please contact us to discuss how we can support you. We are committed to creating inclusive and affirming online spaces.
I'm in a same sex relationship/doing this solo/going through donor conception/have male factor infertility/have never been through treatment/have experienced baby loss - is this for me?
Yes. The Raft is for anyone trying to bring home a baby and we have private chat rooms for you to connect with others going through similar experiences. The focus is not on treatment and while we do connect with others we protect the energy of the group with clear guidelines on how to use the space!

A PERSONAL NOTE FROM ME...
When I created my first six-week mindset course, I had no idea how crucial the support elements would be. I had considered the weekly calls and online group as a nice extra to the curriculum.
In fact, the group found this regular connection one of the most powerful parts of the course; so for this reason I created the Life Raft Membership.
Why the Membership is so special...
💫 coach- led resources and support space
💫 the positive energy is second to none because mindset and compassion is our top priority
💫 solidarity, judgement-free zone while gently focusing on personal growth and ownership
Finally because this far more that just support: the work we do in the Life Raft truly has the potential to be transformational for the direction your life is going in.
In a world that wants us to push through, keep going, never quit and 'just stay positive', the Life Raft welcomes you to be your whole self; showing you a path that feels like a breath of fresh air and a relief from external noise and pressure.
I can't wait to welcome you on board.
Take care,
Alice Rose x
