"Choose your hard. The medical rut that keeps you powerless, or the radical responsibility that brings you back to life."

Topics Discussed:

"Doctors are still running junky 80s science while your body is asking for the truth."

Hello Beautiful Souls, Monica here. In this episode, we continue part two of our conversation with Leslie Kenny. Let’s get real for a second. Most fertility clinics are still serving up recycled science from the 80s, handing out the same tired lines: “Your eggs are bad, your only hope is IVF.” Meanwhile, your body is quietly whispering, “Feed me, regulate me, stop drowning me in synthetics.”

This conversation with Leslie goes straight into the cellular level—where fertility actually begins. We talk oogenesis, autophagy, hormones, and why food-derived spermidine is a fertility ally while synthetic versions can wreck the very ovaries you’re trying to support. We call out the medical gaslighting that tells you your thyroid doesn’t matter, that your trauma doesn’t count, that lifestyle is irrelevant. Spoiler: all of it matters.

This isn’t about buying into another protocol. This is about reclaiming your biology, listening to your nervous system, and realizing that your fertility struggle is not proof of being broken—it’s your invitation to wake up to radical self-responsibility. The cherry on top might be the baby, but the real win is the long, vibrant life you create for yourself and your family.

Press play. Let’s rewrite the fertility script.

"Pregnancy isn’t a health certificate. Stop believing that just because you got pregnant, you’re thriving."

Timestamps:

"Your nervous system is the hologram running the show. If you’re not healing, start there."
