We are very privileged to have such an incredible light-bearer share EFT with us. Thank you so much Nick Ortner! Everyone has problems which are weighing them down and it can seem like there is no way out at times. As Nick put it, you must acknowledge the negative, you must see the ‘dirt’ before you can clean it up and that’s what EFT is all about. Going through the layers of emotions, thoughts, feelings and experiences which are anchoring your biggest struggle inside you. And then addressing and untangling those ropes until your are free from all that to move on to the next stage. ‘Stress makes you dumber’ - Thank you Nick for pointing this out - when you are stressed your blood drains from your brain and goes to your muscles to prepare you for that flight-fight response so you are not in a place where you can have access to creative solutions. ‘Finding peace in your body’ will release the stress and enable you to see clearly what the next step is on this journey. Above all, using Nick’s words again; ‘Have compassion for yourself, you are not broken, it’s not your fault, have some self love and everything is going to work out’ - Start here and the next steps will reveal themselves. EFT is one of the fastest ways to change your state of mind and being and to release negativity. Happy tapping!

Dr. Iva Keene joins us today and brings with her a decade of experience in treating challenging fertility cases all around the world. In this episode we explore the question, “can you improve egg and sperm quality?” Many conventional doctors say, “no” while Dr. Iva says, “yes, but you must understand what that means.” Once you know what that means (and what you & your partner can do) you will feel empowered and excited. We talk about what’s impacting fertility in today’s world from Genetic Polymorphisms to declining sperm quality. Iva discusses important diagnostic tests such as food intolerance, MTHFR genetic mutation tests and why these tests can reveal very important factors that are causing infertility and miscarriages.

Secondary infertility and its causes are discussed and Iva gives advice to those with secondary fertility or who have miscarried to before trying to conceive again. Iva also gives diet and lifestyle advice to women who have been diagnosed with PCOS and reveals what is absolutely crucial in managing this condition. We wrap up the episode discussing becoming a mom in your forties. Both Iva and I became first time moms at 41 and 42 and discuss having healthy babies at an older age has more to do with biological age than chronological age.
