ABOUT
VENUS of NOW
Venus of Now helps individuals and couples understand fertility preservation, intimacy and the feelings we rarely say aloud.
Meet the Founder
MEET THE FOUNDER
Venus of Now was founded by Zavi, whose perspective draws on years of working in mental health and fertility services, clinically training in a world-renowned psychodynamic couple therapy institution in London (UK), and her own experience of fertility preservation.
She created the platform to address what clinical information often leaves out: how fertility preservation affects our inner lives, relationships and sense of self.
Venus of Now asks what happens when the mythical icon (Venus) steps off the shell and into real life — where fertility has a timeline, treatment affects more than the body, and intimate decisions are rarely made alone.
Venus of Now offers psychologically informed education, conversation and relational support for individuals and couples before, during and after fertility preservation. It helps people prepare for treatment, understand its emotional and relationship impact, find language for what feels difficult or shameful, and feel less alone.

What Guides our Work
Fertility preservation affects the body, inner life, identity and future—not only the treatment itself.
THE WHOLE PERSON
RELATIONSHIPS MATTER
Treatment can affect partners, intimacy and decisions about parenthood. Those conversations belong here too.
CLEAR INFORMATION
We explain fertility preservation in accessible language, helping people understand what to expect, what to ask and where uncertainty remains.
HONEST CONVERSATION
There is no correct way to feel. We make room for hope, doubt, grief, shame and conflicting wishes without reducing them to slogans.
CLEAR BOUNDARIES
Venus of Now provides education, conversation and community support—not therapy, diagnosis or personalised medical advice.
Information is not the same as preparation. While data provides facts, true readiness comes from examining the psychological landscapes and the inner life behind our fertility choices. Uncertainty deserves honesty. We trade clinical platitudes for truthful dialogue, ensuring the complex emotions of the reproductive journey are met with sincere acknowledgment.
Personal does not have to mean exposed. We offer a sanctuary where your intimate narrative is honored without compromising your need for private sanctuary. Support needs boundaries. To truly sustain the self, we advocate for structures that protect mental well-being while navigating the intersections of identity and modern womanhood.
UNDERSTAND MORE. ASK BETTER. FEEL LESS ALONE.
