This episode breaks down what actually matters long before trying to conceive — without fear tactics or fluff. We cover the key nutrition priorities, lifestyle habits that support hormones, how to track your cycle properly, which labs are worth doing, and simple ways to lower environmental load without going extreme. Plus, why partner health needs to be part of the conversation.

In this episode:

• nutrients to build up early (iron, vitamin D, folate, omega-3s, B12) for BOTH women and men

• when to start a prenatal and what to look for + why men should also be on a prenatal

• sleep, strength training, stress, and alcohol — the honest take

• tracking ovulation with real data, not app guesses

• which hormone tests are useful and when

• practical detox swaps that don’t require a lifestyle overhaul
