Infertility is a disease that impacts 1 in 8 couples. 1 in 4 women have experienced a miscarriage. Over 8 million babies have been born worldwide via In vitro fertilization. When these statistics are the most common ones shared in relation to the disease, it is understandable why fertility issues are often only associated only with the ability to carry a child, as opposed to the mental and physical well-being of the woman that can carry beyond the realm of pregnancy.
Infertility can impact every aspect of a person’s life, so it is easy to feel overwhelmed, lost or alone. While research has shown that women with infertility have similar levels of stress, anxiety and depression as women with cancer and heart disease, as a medical provider and women’s health expert, I would like to help forge connections and share stories that help demystify diagnosis and support those who often feel unseen.
Our mission is to support you on your fertility journey, while optimizing wellness and health using integrative techniques. Integrative medicine takes into consideration all factors that influence health and wellness: the mind, body, spirit and community. It combines alternative and conventional methods to facilitate the body‘s own healing response.
You will hear from experts who specialize in mental health, mind-body, nutrition, acupuncture, environmental toxins and more to help educate you on the things that not only will support optimal fertility but achieve optimal wellness for you.
While infertility is not uncommon, it can be terribly isolating and lonely because many stories are not told. The podcast also features diverse stories of women who have navigated infertility helping to break the silence and stigma that surrounds infertility.
