In this episode of There Qi Goes, we dive into the truth behind fertility, why it’s not always as hard as social media makes it seem, and how the cultural narrative around "infertility" may be holding women back. As someone who works in women’s health, Katherine shares her personal journey, professional insights, and the myths she wishes more women knew weren’t true.
This conversation is here to destigmatize fertility challenges, break down misconceptions, and empower women with real information and hope — whether you’re trying to conceive, thinking about your fertility, or simply curious.
