The Ultimate Pregnancy Prep Podcast

In today's episode, I'm sitting down with psychotherapist Laura Federico and midwife Morgan Miller, co-authors of The Cycle Book, and they are pulling back the curtain on PMS, PMDD, and a lesser-known pattern called PME that could be quietly running the show in your cycle.
We're also getting refreshingly honest about the pressure that trying to conceive can put on intimacy. Laura and Morgan help normalize the sexual and emotional side of this journey, and they share some alternative solutions you may not have considered. And stick around, because near the end, Morgan drops a warning about the app on your phone that you are going to want to hear.

Today's episode is one I think so many of you have been waiting for, because we're talking about the thing that gets sacrificed first on this journey and yet matters more than almost anything else: your sleep. 
I'm sitting down with therapist and sleep expert Chrissy Lawler, and she is going to walk us through why sleep is basically a performance-enhancing drug for your fertility, what "good sleep" actually looks like for your unique body, and how to protect your rest through the wild ride of preconception, pregnancy and postpartum. We're also getting into her concept of secure attachment, and why a well-rested you is one of the greatest gifts you can give your future child. So get cozy, because this one is equal parts science and soul.

If you're navigating a miscarriage, now or have in the past, this episode is for you. In today's episode I'm walking you through exactly what to expect and what to do, from the earliest signs and symptoms to be aware of, to how to nourish and rest your body through it, to the specific red flags that mean it's time to head to the hospital. 
I'll also cover what to do with the supplements and prenatal vitamins you're already taking, how long a miscarriage typically lasts, when ongoing bleeding could mean you need more medical attention, and how soon you can expect your cycle to return. 
I'm also breaking down something most women have never heard of, Products Of Conception (POC) testing and exactly how and when you can use it to get real answers from this loss. And if you've been through this once, or more times than you can bear to count, I'll be closing off with something I need you to hear: I've walked alongside many clients with sometimes up to five losses who went on to carry healthy babies to term naturally, and I want you to know this is possible for you too.

Fertility myths are everywhere and this week, we're setting the record straight. I'm sitting down with Dr. Sasha Hakman, a double board-certified OB-GYN and reproductive endocrinologist who brings something rare to this conversation: she's not just the expert, she's also walked her own infertility journey. 
Together we're busting the biggest myths keeping hopeful parents stuck, from how much prep time you actually need before trying to conceive, to why that period-tracking app on your phone might be leading you astray, to what really matters in a prenatal supplement. 
Dr. Hakman also shares surprising research on toxin exposure and egg quality, gets real about the stress-fertility connection, tackles the exercise question everyone gets wrong, and explains why male fertility testing deserves way more attention than a basic "normal" result. If you've ever felt confused or unsure of your own body's signals, this episode hands you the clarity and confidence to advocate for yourself on this journey.

What happens when the diagnosis you're given doesn't actually fit your body? In today's episode, I'm interviewing my client Christine. She did everything "right" to start her family, but when her cycle didn't return after coming off birth control, she was quickly labeled with PCOS and told IVF was her only option. Something about that diagnosis didn't sit right with her and trusting that instinct changed everything. Through self-advocacy and after signing up for the Bronze package, we discovered she actually had hypothalamic amenorrhea (HA)
Christine's story is one of the most powerful examples of self-advocacy I've witnessed. From rethinking her approach to movement to making dietary shifts that felt counterintuitive at first, she helped her body remember how to do what it was designed to do.
But her path wasn't a straight line, there was heartbreak, and a turning point that changed everything. If you've ever felt dismissed by a diagnosis, Christine's journey is proof of what's possible when you keep asking questions, find the right practitioner and have deep commitment to this journey.
