Fertility Mini-Series, Ep 1: How to Naturally Support Preconception Health

EPISODE #43 — JUN 6, 2025

First episode of our Fertility Mini-Series! And we’re starting with the first phase—preconception. Whether you’re actively trying to conceive, planning for pregnancy down the road, or simply want to feel more balanced in your menstrual cycle, this conversation will help you understand what your body truly needs to feel safe, nourished, and ready for fertility. I’m breaking down why fertility is a reflection of your overall health, the key differences between infertility and subfertility, and how stress, inflammation, gut health, hormone balance, and nutrient imbalances can sneakily block your body’s natural rhythms. I also walk you through practical, root-cause ways to “fertilize the soil before planting the seed”—so your body can do what it was naturally designed to do.
