More Than Your Infertility Podcast
Welcome to the More Than Your Infertility Podcast — the emotional support you didn’t know you needed while navigating IVF and infertility.
If you’re exhausted from doing all the things and still getting nowhere...
If your mind won’t stop spiraling while you wait for answers...
If you’re holding it together on the outside but quietly falling apart...
You’re not alone. And you don’t have to do this the hard way anymore.
I’m Kristin Dillensnyder — IVF mom, certified infertility mindset coach, and infertility advocate. I created this podcast because no one should have to white-knuckle their way through fertility treatments without real emotional support.
Every week, you’ll get straight-talking advice, compassionate guidance, and mindset tools that actually help. This is where you learn how to:
- Stay hopeful after a failed embryo transfer or miscarriage
- Survive the dreaded two week wait (TWW)
- Quiet the negative thought spirals that come with IVF
- Handle pregnancy announcements without crumbling
- Rebuild your belief when it feels like everyone else gets pregnant but you
- Find peace, even when nothing feels certain
Whether you’re dealing with unexplained infertility, male factor, PCOS, endometriosis, secondary infertility, donor conception, or navigating IVF solo—this podcast is for you.
You’re doing something really hard. Let me help make it feel just a little bit lighter.
Because you are so much more than your infertility—and it’s time you started feeling that way.

Empowering Fertility: Access, Advocacy, and Resources (Dr. Chen Interview)
Dr. Serena Chen, not only a leading expert in reproductive medicine, but one of the nicest people I’ve met, is on the podcast for a second part where we focus on the importance of access to reproductive care and the importance and power of advocacy.
There is a difference between the cost of fertility care versus the investment of fertility preservation and care and the total impact on our society.
You will walk away from today’s episode understanding that speaking up through advocacy does make a difference and know the resources out there that will help you.
