In this weeks episode, I interview Madeline Rose of Tending the Womb. Madeline is a fertility awareness method educator and offers support for women & all expressions of the womb space.

In this episode, we chat about the fertility awareness method in a much less tangible and much more spiritual way than we typically hear about.

Madeline has a beautiful way of sharing about FAM as an opportunity for uncovering a deeper connection to ourselves and our fertility.

This work is about so much more than getting pregnant (though it can help you with that part too!)

In this episode we cover...

Madeline also shares about a new offering she has recently released, Fertile Sovereignty (Registration is still open)

This isn't your average cut out dairy and gluten to theoretically reduce inflammation approach...

In this week's episode, I share about my personal experience recovering from hypothalamic amenorrhea (HA).

When I was 22 years old, my gynecologist callously shared:

'You'll probably have a hard time getting pregnant, but here's the pill for now."

This was following years of menstrual cycle irregularities, several bouts of amenorrhea (complete loss of my period), excruciatingly painful sex & general confusion about what was going on with my body.

At 22, pregnancy was the LAST thing on my mind. I had big dreams, a challenging relationship with my own mother and my body.

Puberty had been such a painful experience for me. I couldn't even imagine going through the body changes associated with pregnancy...

But for some reason her comment stung.

I didn't even want kids....did I?

There was a longing somewhere deep inside.

Somewhere that I had been ignoring for a long time.

Many years later, at 29 when my first niece was born this longing came up again

In this week's episode I share all about egg quality and diminished ovarian reserve. Although you may have been led to believe that AMH + FSH levels tell you everything that you need to know about you ability to get pregnant (especially over 35), this could not be further from the truth!

Tune in to learn more about ovarian reserve and egg quality AND how you can improve your chances of conception with diet, lifestyle, supplementation + holistic treatment modalities...

In this episode I interview Dr. Jennifer Mercier @dr.jennifer.mercier, creator of the Mercier Abdominal Therapy technique.

Dr. Mercier shares about her personal experience navigating endometriosis and fertility challenges. She was able to significantly improve the pain she was experiencing and to conceive her babies through working deeply on her abdomen.

The techniques that she used on her own body are the same that she uses in her practice today. She has now also trained many other practitioners in this technique as well.

Dr. Jennifer Mercier has so much to share both personally an professionally...

In this episode, I share about the lab testing that I typically recommend for women to start with when TTC.

Many doctors are resistant to running hormone labs, but there are other options! There are many at home urine tests and blood tests you can order yourself these days.

This is wonderful, but it's also important to know that conventional and functional lab ranges are different. It's possible to get labs run whether through your doctor or on your own and to remain confused about what it actually means for your fertility.
