When it comes to fertility, pregnancy preparation, and healthy pregnancies, the conversation almost always centers around women. But what if we're overlooking half of the equation?

In this eye-opening episode, Brooke sits down with Ronit Menashe, co-founder of WeNatal, to discuss the concept of Trimester Zero—the critical months before conception when both partners have the opportunity to optimize their health and improve pregnancy outcomes.

Ronit shares why male fertility matters just as much as female fertility, how sperm health influences everything from conception rates to placental development and pregnancy complications, and why declining sperm counts have become a growing public health concern. Together, they explore the environmental, nutritional, and lifestyle factors contributing to today's fertility challenges and, most importantly, what couples can do to take action.

You'll learn why sperm quality goes far beyond sperm count, how lifestyle changes can dramatically improve fertility in as little as 72 days, and why supporting men's health before pregnancy may positively impact a child's lifelong health.

Whether you're actively trying to conceive, planning for a future pregnancy, or simply want to understand the science behind fertility, this episode will completely change the way you think about preconception health.

In this powerful conversation, Brooke sits down with birth educator, doula trainer, clinical hypnotherapist, and founder of Nurture, Erica Paulson, to discuss the often-overlooked connection between your nervous system and your birth experience.

Together, they explore why birth is not just a physical event, but a whole-body experience that involves your emotions, past experiences, beliefs, stress levels, support system, and sense of safety. Erica shares how her own birth experiences transformed her understanding of labor and ultimately led her to help thousands of women prepare for birth from a more holistic perspective.

You'll learn why emotional safety matters just as much as physical safety, how fear and stress can influence labor progression and pain perception, why oxytocin is one of the most important hormones in birth, and how choosing the right care team can dramatically impact your experience.

Whether you're preparing for your first baby or hoping for a different experience this time around, this episode will help you rethink birth preparation through the lens of nervous system regulation, self-advocacy, and trust in your body's design.

If you’ve ever leaked urine while sneezing, laughing, running, or jumping postpartum, this episode is for you.

This conversation is empowering, practical, and an important reminder that bladder leaks may be common in motherhood—but they are not something you simply have to live with forever.

In this deeply personal solo episode, I share a recent update about my daughter’s health journey and the long road it took to finally receive answers. After more than a year and a half of researching, advocating, and pushing through dismissal from providers, I explain how one doctor finally listened—and why that changed everything for our family.

This message goes beyond one diagnosis and highlights a lesson every mama needs to hear: you have to keep advocating for yourself and your children, even when you feel unheard. I also shares how early intervention and individualized care can completely shift the trajectory of health and healing.

If you’ve ever wondered whether your symptoms are “just postpartum” or something deeper, this episode is for you.

You’ll also learn how pregnancy and postpartum impact the thyroid, the difference between normal postpartum changes and true thyroid dysfunction, the thyroid labs every mom should ask for, and why finding the root cause matters instead of simply masking symptoms.
