EP364: Advanced Maternal Age: Let’s Be Done With This BS Label
If you’re trying to conceive over 35 or over 40, the label “advanced maternal age” may be doing more harm than good.
In this episode, fertility mindset expert Rosanne Austin explains why fear-based age labels undermine fertility identity, emotional resilience, and confidence — and how women can reclaim power, clarity, and success on the fertility journey later in life.
Rosanne dismantles one of the most damaging, outdated, and emotionally toxic labels in women’s health — and exposes how it quietly sabotages fertility identity, emotional resilience, and confidence for women who have the audacity to start their families over 35.
This episode is not about denying the current state of medical information.
It’s about refusing to let fear-based labels define your fertility future.
Rosanne — who conceived naturally and gave birth just before turning 44 — breaks down why the term advanced maternal age is no longer aligned with modern women’s lives, bodies, or realities, and why blindly absorbing this label can deeply impact how a woman thinks, feels, and experiences her fertility journey.
You’ll explore how authority-driven labels shape identity, how fear-based statistics are often delivered without regard for their psychological or physiological impact, and why women over 35 deserve a massive upgrade in how fertility, pregnancy, and motherhood are discussed.
This episode is an invitation to reclaim sovereignty over your fertility mindset, redefine your identity, and stop outsourcing your belief in what’s possible to outdated and frequently contradicted medical terminology. What you’ll learn in this episode:
-Why the label “advanced maternal age” is emotionally and psychologically harmful
-How fertility identity directly influences mindset, resilience, and decision-making
-Why women over 35 are not the same as women over 35 fifty years ago
-How fear-based statistics can undermine fertility confidence and wellbeing
-Why more women over 40 are having babies now than teenagers — and why this matters
-How to have empowered, peer-to-peer conversations with healthcare providers
-Why you get to decide which labels you accept — and which you reject
-How to consciously choose a fertility identity rooted in strength, readiness, and self-trust. This episode is for the woman who:
-Is over 35 and tired of being spoken to with fear and judgment
-Feels emotionally activated every time age is brought up in appointments
-Wants facts without having her hope stripped away
-Knows she is more than a statistic
-Is ready to become the woman who leads her fertility journey — not one who is led by labels.
Want to live your fertility journey with the kind of peace, calm, and confidence that can make your age, diagnosis, or past failures irrelevant? Rosanne’s work goes beyond the limits of fertility medicine…and her clients are living proof.
