We're keeping this episode short so that you can spend time with family, grab leftovers, and check out the one-day sales! BUT - we think Thanksgiving is the perfect time to pause and give thanks for what we've all learned about fertility and experienced within our fertility journey this year. We hope you'll spend a few minutes to listen while you take your after dinner walk or start your journey home or get a few minutes of "me" time amidst family! Happy Thanksgiving!

NOTE: This episode is appropriate for all audiences.

This episode is for you! Tracy Mann has spoken with us before about PCOS-specific nutrition tips, but today's episode applies to every female of reproductive age. She goes over a wealth of great information; I learned a lot myself! She talks about what nutrients women need the most, how our body tells us when we aren't getting them, what to do with cravings (and what our cravings can tell us) and more.

She also is offering us early access to her Healthy Habits for the Holidays course! You can learn more and/or register here!

NOTE: This episode is appropriate for all ages.

Did you know all women follow the same general fertility timeline and milestones throughout their life? This is called the Reproductive Continuum. And knowing what it is and how it works can make understanding your phase of fertility (and what to expect next!) that much easier. Today's episode explains the Reproductive Continuum and what to expect in each phase, when they begin, and what to expect of each.

I tend to work with a lot of clients who have walked through the IVF process after being told it was their only hope for pregnancy. After finding it unsuccessful or unappealing to them, they begin looking for other options. I'm thrilled to share another option: the Restorative Health Approach. Today's episode shares what you need to know if you're afraid IVF may be your only option. We touch on about approach, finances, ethics, insurance, and more. We hope this episode can be an encouragement to you on your journey to learn more!

NOTE: This episode is appropriate for all audiences.

Perfect for listening to in partnership with our last episode (Ep. 40: We're Engaged! What should we know about family planning?), today we talk with Julia and Donald Paul, an engaged couple who has just begun learning the Creighton system to use in their marriage.

Not engaged, but have a friend who is? Share this episode to help them hear from someone in their same life stage and help them know they are not alone as they consider their family planning options!

NOTE: This episode may be appropriate for all audiences, but does use the term "sex" once.

This prayer guide is intended to help us understand the design and beauty with which God created our female bodies. But praying over & about our bodies can be a new experience! Even with the guide, you may need a little help in getting started. The goal of today's episode is to do just that. This quick episode is designed to help you walk through the prayer guide and gives you stepping stones and activities to help you get started.
