"It wasn’t until after I got pregnant that I realized my gut health and so many other things had contributed to my miscarriages. My doctor said, 'It just happens.' But I knew there had to be a reason."

Topics Discussed

Fertility and gut health: How inflammation, processed foods, and nutrient absorption affect conception

IVF or medical trauma: The frustration of being told “it just happens” after miscarriage

Emotional and mindset healing: Turning discipline into self-love and rebuilding trust in the body

Subconscious blocks and energy work: Letting go of instant gratification to create true healing

Frequency, coherence, embodiment, and cellular health: How nourishment and awareness elevate fertility

"Pregnancy isn’t a sign of health, it’s a sign of reproduction—and those are not the same thing."

Hello Beautiful, Monica here supporting you to become the conscious mama you were born to be. In this episode, I sit down with journalist-turned-health-podcaster Natalie Tisdale, whose fertility journey led her deep into the world of gut health, self-discipline, and true nourishment. What began as frustration after repeated miscarriages became a quest for understanding what her body was actually trying to say. Spoiler alert: it wasn’t about age, it was about inflammation, imbalance, and intuition.

We talk about the myth of “bad luck” and how the body always whispers before it screams. Natalie shares how ditching processed foods, rebuilding her microbiome, and reconnecting to her body’s rhythm changed everything—from her energy to her fertility outcomes. It’s not about a long list of supplements or complicated biohacks, it’s about simple, nourishing choices made with love and awareness.

You’ll laugh, nod, and probably want to grab a cup of bone broth halfway through this one. We also dive into how discipline becomes an act of self-love, why antibiotics wreck more than your gut, and how trusting your inner guidance can transform your fertility journey. The message is clear: healing your gut isn’t just about digestion, it’s about coherence, connection, and creation.

"Discipline isn’t punishment—it’s self-love in action."

"When you feel good from the good things, you stop craving the bad things—physically and emotionally."
