Fit For What?
The podcast that brings you all the health, fitness & wellness advice you could ever want, with a sprinkle of banter & a whole heap of realness. Join Laura & Sarah each week to hear what's going on in the world of gyms, life challenges & everything inbetween, without an ounce of either of them taking themselves too seriously, and neither should you (we think!)

Hello again everyone!
In this episode, Laura and Sarah discuss the sensitive topic of fertility, particularly focusing on Laura's recent (& current!) personal experience with egg freezing.
They explore the emotional and physical challenges associated with the process, the societal pressures surrounding fertility, and the importance of self-advocacy in women's health. The conversation also touches on the financial implications of fertility treatments and the impact of age and lifestyle on fertility.
As always, they emphasise the need for open discussions about these topics and encourage listeners to seek professional medical advice where possible.
