    We are well into the swing of Janurary, and it’s easy to focus on goals, plans, and resolutions.

    I hope this reflective conversation aboutintention and energy, helps you to self reflect, and spend the year feeling lighter, clearer, and fully all-in.

    If your partner vapes, or you do, this episode isfor you.
    We’re talking about something that’s become way too common in fertility prep: vaping.

    You might think it’s 'healthier than smoking,' BUT, it’s not fertility-safe.

  • Ep. 37: Why IVF fails (and what you can actually do about it)

    This isn’t another “stay positive” pep talk. It’s adata-driven, compassionate look at what might be happening beneath the surface, and the steps I take with my clients to help them prepare for their next round with strategy, not guesswork.

    ·      The five most common reasons IVF fails, andhow to identify them

    ·      Why egg and sperm quality matter more than numbers
