Could sleep be the missing piece in your fertility journey? In this episode, we explore how your sleep quality plays a vital role in your ability to conceive. From supporting hormone regulation and metabolic health to improving egg quality and sperm production, sleep impacts fertility in ways you might not realize.
Poor sleep disrupts critical reproductive hormones like LH, FSH, and testosterone, and it can even reduce melatonin levels, which protect egg quality—especially for women over 35. For men, just one extra hour of sleep can significantly improve testosterone levels and sperm health, making it a simple but powerful way to boost fertility naturally.
If you’ve been struggling with irregular cycles, PCOS, or male infertility after a vasectomy reversal, focusing on sleep could be the game-changer you need. In this episode, I’ll share science-backed insights and practical tips to improve your sleep habits, create a restful environment, and set the stage for optimized fertility.

Are you staring at your semen analysis results, feeling completely lost? You’re not alone. So many couples in this journey feel confused and overwhelmed by the numbers and wonder if they’re doing enough—or even the right things—to improve their chances of conceiving. Maybe you’re asking yourself, “Are these results normal?” or “Is my sperm health actually getting better?” or “What should we even focus on next?” If this sounds like you, this episode is exactly what you need.
We’re diving into the nitty-gritty of semen analysis after a vasectomy reversal and breaking it down in a way that actually makes sense. You’ll learn why it’s not about one single test but looking at trends over time to see if you’re moving in the right direction. We’ll talk about why regular testing is so important and how it can give you the information you need to feel more confident and less anxious about your fertility journey.
We’ll also cover simple changes you can make to naturally improve sperm health. Plus, we’ll talk about at-home sperm tests—what they’re good for, what they’re not, and how to use them alongside professional testing to get a better picture of where you stand.
If you’re feeling stuck, second-guessing yourself, or unsure of how to move forward, this episode will help you cut through the noise and give you the clarity and confidence you’ve been searching for.

Trying to conceive after a vasectomy reversal isn’t always the simple journey we hope for. Sydney Clark’s story is a powerful reminder that while the road to parenthood can be long and filled with heartache, faith, persistence, and the right steps can make miracles happen. In this episode, Sydney shares the intimate details of her four-year fertility journey, which included two vasectomy reversals (VE and VV), a heartbreaking miscarriage, and ultimately the arrival of her long-awaited rainbow baby.
After initially thinking the process would be straightforward, Sydney and her husband faced setback after setback. Their first vasectomy reversal (VE) did not succeed, and they quickly realized that not all reversals are created equal. Sydney dives into her experience with both types of reversals—the simpler in-office VE and the more complex VV (vasovasostomy)—and how a lack of proper testing led them to a difficult realization about the importance of optimal hormone health for both partners.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone facing the pain of fertility setbacks. Sydney’s raw honesty about her journey will leave you feeling hopeful, supported, and encouraged. Tune in as she shares the invaluable lessons learned over four years of struggle, and how her faith, persistence, and the right medical guidance brought her baby home.

TOP 2.5% GLOBALLY RANKED HOLISTIC HEALTH PODCAST
What if taking care of your health wasn’t about adding more rules to your life—but about creating a life you want more years of?
Faith Over Pharma is a faith-led holistic health and longevity podcast for women who want to feel strong, capable, energized, and fully engaged in their lives for decades to come.
I’m Susan Gladstein — Holistic Health Practitioner, Functional Nutrition Specialist, creator of Rooted Fertility™ and Rooted Reset™, retreat host, and mom of two vasectomy reversal babies born in my 40s.
My own fertility journey taught me to look at the body differently. Hormones, metabolism, inflammation, sleep, stress, nutrition, movement, nervous system health, fertility, and aging aren’t separate conversations. They’re interconnected pieces of how well we function now—and how well we’re able to keep living later.
On this show, we ask better questions about what helps the body thrive rather than simply accepting symptoms, declining energy, or feeling worse with age as inevitable.
You’ll hear conversations about longevity, healthy aging, hormone and metabolic health, fertility, strength, blood sugar, inflammation, mitochondria, sleep, nervous system regulation, natural healing, nutrition, and the foundational pieces of health conventional conversations often overlook.
But this show isn’t just about optimizing your body.
Because what’s the point of more years if you’re not actually living them?
We talk about the things that make those years worth having too: travel, adventure, meaningful relationships, faith, purpose, community, Blue Zone-inspired living, gathering around a table, trying new things, getting outside, staying strong enough to participate, and always having something on the calendar you’re genuinely excited about.
That same philosophy is at the heart of the Rooted Community and Rooted Reset™ retreats and experiences: health should give you more freedom to live your life—not become your full-time job.
The goal isn’t perfect wellness.
It’s enough health to travel. Hike. Dance. Carry your grandkids. Explore somewhere new. Say yes to the adventure. Sit around the table with people you love. And keep participating in your life for as long as God gives you one to live.
If you believe God designed the body with wisdom and you want a more holistic, grounded approach to longevity, hormones, fertility, and living well, you’re in the right place.
