EP. 10 | Prescribing the Truth: You Are Not Your Diagnosis

In this powerful solo episode, Dr. Nicole Morris, Catholic naturopathic doctor and fertility expert, challenges the idea that a diagnosis defines you. She invites you to explore a deeper truth: your symptoms are messengers, not life sentences. Drawing from her own experience with infertility, chronic stress, and childhood trauma, Dr. Nicole shares why root-cause healing is far more meaningful than chasing labels like PCOS, IBS, or unexplained infertility.

Learn how nervous system dysregulation, childhood experiences, emotional trauma, and lifestyle stressors quietly shape your health, especially fertility. Discover how to begin the healing process by tuning into your body, calming the fight-or-flight response, and releasing shame and fear around your diagnosis.

This episode will encourage you to:

Question the diagnosis-driven medical model

Understand how chronic stress impacts your hormones

Reframe fertility "labels" like PCOS or low AMH

Create emotional and physical safety for healing

Explore the deeper “why” behind your symptoms

Whether you're trying to conceive or just want to reconnect with your body and faith, Dr. Nicole’s holistic and hope-filled approach will help you take the next step forward with clarity and courage.
