The Ultimate Pregnancy Prep Podcast

If you're navigating a miscarriage, now or have in the past, this episode is for you. In today's episode I'm walking you through exactly what to expect and what to do, from the earliest signs and symptoms to be aware of, to how to nourish and rest your body through it, to the specific red flags that mean it's time to head to the hospital. 
I'll also cover what to do with the supplements and prenatal vitamins you're already taking, how long a miscarriage typically lasts, when ongoing bleeding could mean you need more medical attention, and how soon you can expect your cycle to return. 
I'm also breaking down something most women have never heard of, Products Of Conception (POC) testing and exactly how and when you can use it to get real answers from this loss. And if you've been through this once, or more times than you can bear to count, I'll be closing off with something I need you to hear: I've walked alongside many clients with sometimes up to five losses who went on to carry healthy babies to term naturally, and I want you to know this is possible for you too.

Fertility myths are everywhere and this week, we're setting the record straight. I'm sitting down with Dr. Sasha Hakman, a double board-certified OB-GYN and reproductive endocrinologist who brings something rare to this conversation: she's not just the expert, she's also walked her own infertility journey. 
Together we're busting the biggest myths keeping hopeful parents stuck, from how much prep time you actually need before trying to conceive, to why that period-tracking app on your phone might be leading you astray, to what really matters in a prenatal supplement. 
Dr. Hakman also shares surprising research on toxin exposure and egg quality, gets real about the stress-fertility connection, tackles the exercise question everyone gets wrong, and explains why male fertility testing deserves way more attention than a basic "normal" result. If you've ever felt confused or unsure of your own body's signals, this episode hands you the clarity and confidence to advocate for yourself on this journey.

What happens when the diagnosis you're given doesn't actually fit your body? In today's episode, I'm interviewing my client Christine. She did everything "right" to start her family, but when her cycle didn't return after coming off birth control, she was quickly labeled with PCOS and told IVF was her only option. Something about that diagnosis didn't sit right with her and trusting that instinct changed everything. Through self-advocacy and after signing up for the Bronze package, we discovered she actually had hypothalamic amenorrhea (HA)
Christine's story is one of the most powerful examples of self-advocacy I've witnessed. From rethinking her approach to movement to making dietary shifts that felt counterintuitive at first, she helped her body remember how to do what it was designed to do.
But her path wasn't a straight line, there was heartbreak, and a turning point that changed everything. If you've ever felt dismissed by a diagnosis, Christine's journey is proof of what's possible when you keep asking questions, find the right practitioner and have deep commitment to this journey.

In today's episode I'm tackling a question that trips up even the most experienced cycle-trackers: can your chart look perfectly ovulatory and still, the egg was never actually released?
It sounds impossible, but it's a real, documented condition called Luteinized Unruptured Follicle Syndrome, or LUF syndrome. Today I'll be breaking down why ovulation, not your period, is the true main event of your cycle when you're trying to conceive, what's actually happening in your body when LUF syndrome occurs, how common it really is (the research on this might surprise you), the risk factors that can make it more likely, the diagnostic tools that can actually catch it, and what you can do if you suspect this might be part of your own story.
If you've been living inside unexplained infertility with charts that look completely normal and no real answers, this episode might just give you a clear path forward.

In today's episode, my client Alessandra returns to share the raw, deeply personal evolution of her fertility journey, from the heartbreak of loss and a long road through IVF to the unexpected surprise of conceiving naturally when she least expected it. Today, we peel back the layers of what it really looks like to move through grief, release control, and rebuild trust in your body after everything you thought would work didn't.
We also explore the contrast between her two pregnancies, her first marked by intense medical intervention, anxiety, and physical strain, and the second unfolding with more ease, fewer symptoms, and a completely different emotional landscape. 
This conversation is a powerful reminder that healing isn't linear, outcomes aren't always predictable, and with the right support and foundational shifts, your story can change in ways you never imagined.
