The Fertility Reset

In this episode I share an experience with IVF and what I did differently from the first time I did it. We tend to blame ourselves when things don't go as expected and wonder what more we could have done but sometimes we cannot control the outcome. I share how I am learning to let go of wanting that control and learning to love myself and take care of my body through the process.

I am sharing about my fertility journey with you and how I have changed and grown from who I was when I started trying to conceive. As hard as it is to believe, there is purpose in the journey if you allow yourself to see it.

I am Susan Portz, registered dietitian and certified intuitive eating counselor. This podcast is all things IVF, finding freedom on your fertility journey, creating a healthy relationship with food through intuitive eating and gentle fertility nutrition. I can't wait to share all of this with you!
