Why it worked

The video likely resonated because it offers a message of resilience and positive reframing in the face of significant personal challenges, which is a universally relatable theme.

Summary

The speaker discusses how her personal struggles, like trying to get pregnant for seven years and undergoing twenty rounds of IVF, do not define her. She emphasizes that focusing on her successes and feeling lucky, rather than dwelling on past difficulties, is a conscious decision about how she chooses to define herself.

Structure

1Struggles with fertility and IVF
2Reframing success over failure
3Choosing not to be defined by worst moments
4Embracing luck and gratitude
5Deciding what defines one's story

Original caption

“Your success is not my failure.” After seven years of trying to get pregnant and twenty rounds of IVF, it would have been easy to let that become the whole story. But your hardest chapter is still only one chapter. Erin doesn’t sit here and lead with the struggle. She sits here and says she’s the luckiest person in the world. That’s not denial. That’s a decision about which part of your story you let define you. ❤️ Your worst moments are not who you are 🌱 Someone else’s success doesn’t take anything away from yours ✨ There is so much more to your story than the part that hurt #ivf #ivfjourney #foster #aspirewithemmagrede #chapter
