#899. Kaitlyn is joined in-studio by her longtime friend (and former fertility nurse!) Whitney Bischoff Angel, fresh off a girls’ weekend, to talk all things fertility and women’s health. From egg freezing and endometriosis to postpartum, loss, and the emotional side of every phase—nothing is off the table.

Whitney shares insights from nearly 20 years in fertility nursing, why she chose not to pursue the influencer path, and she opens up about her not-so-great experience on The Bachelor and how it shaped the life she has now. They also dig into the questions so many women have but rarely get clear answers to:

– What’s the first step if you’re curious about fertility support?

– Do SSRIs or mental health meds impact pregnancy?

– When should you consider freezing your eggs?

– Should you freeze them even if you’re not sure you want kids?

– What about PCOS, male factor infertility, endometriosis, or surrogacy?

And of course, some surprise guest walk-ins lead to an unexpected Titanic conspiracy chat—because why not?

It’s real, informative, and full of the conversations women wish they heard more often. Tune in!
