This week, I’m so excited to bring you a conversation with the incredible Lily Nichols. Lily is a Registered Dietitian/Nutritionist, Certified Diabetes Educator, researcher, and author — and honestly, a breath of fresh air in the world of prenatal and fertility nutrition. Lily is known for her evidence-based (yet practical!) approach to supporting women through real food. If you've ever felt confused about what to eat while trying to conceive or wondered whether your nutrition really matters on your fertility journey... this episode is for you.

Together, we explore what the latest research is telling us, why so many mainstream guidelines might not go far enough, and how you can take back your power with food that truly nourishes you — mind, body, and hormones.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

✨Why the “one-size-fits-all” prenatal nutrition advice often falls short and what to consider instead

✨How nutrient-dense, real food supports egg quality, hormone balance, and a healthy menstrual cycle

✨The role of blood sugar (even if you don’t have diabetes!) in your overall fertility

✨What Lily’s research and clinical experience have taught her about carbs, supplements, and the myths that need to go

✨How to start making gentle, sustainable food choices without perfectionism or guilt

Lily brings so much compassion, clarity, and wisdom to this conversation — and I know you’ll leave feeling deeply empowered to care for your body in a way that feels good and actually works. Whether you're just beginning your fertility journey or have been at it for a while, this episode will give you the kind of insight that sticks with you. So grab a cozy drink, a nutrient dense snack, and come join us.
