The Art Of Unbecoming

Our mission at Aphrodite is to pull women out of the darkness of infertility and to get them to the family they've always wanted. We are totally into educating our patients so that they can make the most informed decisions about their reproductive health.

Gimme that

What if you’re not here to become more — but to come home to who you already are?

Hormones shift. Seasons change. And if you listen, we’re invited to return to ourselves — to “unbecome” again and again.

Menarche (Your First Bleed)

The moment the body speaks, and the world tells you to hush.
Smile smaller. Sit neater. Bleed quietly.

Unbecoming here means teaching girls that their bodies are not burdens to manage — they’re maps to wisdom.
Powerful. Rhythmic. Divine.
You don’t need to shrink to be seen.

Fertility Years

The “go” years. Build the career. Find the person. Buy the house. Have the baby (or explain why you didn’t).

Unbecoming in this season means getting honest about what’s actually yours, and what was just picked up to please, perform, or prove.
It’s untangling worth from a checklist.
It’s redefining success.
It’s choosing you, boldly, even when it doesn’t make sense to anyone else.

Why More San Diego Women Are Turning to Acupuncture for Infertility

Pregnancy & Postpartum

Everything stretches — body, soul, expectations.
There is no “bouncing back.”
There is only becoming someone entirely new.

Unbecoming means surrendering the old blueprint.
Letting go of timelines.
Learning that transformation is not loss — it’s expansion.

Perimenopause

Culture says it’s the beginning of the end.
But here’s the truth: it’s the beginning of honesty.

Unbecoming means cutting through noise.
Naming what no longer serves.
Replacing politeness with boundaries.
It’s not a crisis — it’s a clarifying.

Menopause & Beyond

This is the exhale.
No more needing to be palatable. No more contorting to fit in.

Unbecoming here is not soft.
It’s wild.
It’s choosing to be fully expressed, fully seen, fully you.
Not just an elder by age — but by power.

Unbecoming Is Not About Loss

It’s a homecoming.
A lifelong invitation to step closer to your truth.
Not by building a new version of you — but by releasing everything that was never yours.

Less doing.
More listening.
Less performing.
More being.

You are not here to hustle toward worthiness.
You are already whole.
