Today we’re talking about something everyone who is struggling with fertility is all too familiar with – and that is stress.

And while we know this journey is inherently stressful, no one really explains the connection between stress and fertility properly.

This episode is NOT about ‘just relaxing’ and all the other unhelpful TTC advice that you hear – instead we’re discussing the real physiological & emotional impact that chronic stress has on your overall health + fertility.

And even more importantly, what you can actually do about it.

If you’re exhausted from being told to stay calm while you’re navigating one of the most stressful seasons of your life, this episode is one you don’t want to miss.


By the time you finish listening, you'll find out:

  • What is stress and what no one is telling you about it!
  • How stress leads to nervous system dysregulation (and how this can impact your overall health + fertility)
  • Simple & practical ways you can actually start to manage stress if you're dealing with infertility
