Get Pregnant Naturally

Nichole Causey joins us as we're digging into deepening your intuition and tapping into the spirit world during the fertility journey. Welcome to day #1 of our series on faith and fertility. When we are faced with a fertility diagnosis such as low AMH, high FSH, premature ovarian insufficiency, or diminished ovarian we may feel shocked, hopeless, lost, and overwhelmed. We may even question our body’s ability to procreate. Over the next 4 days, I’ll be discussing how our faith can help us during our fertility journey. Because we can change our diet, improve our sleep, do all the latest tests to optimize our fertility, but it is equally important to work on our mindset and the belief that we are parents the moment we begin trying to conceive. Our Fab Fertile Method includes a mind, body spirit approach to fertility. All steps are necessary – not all at once – but layered in a personalized approach. Today I’m excited to welcome Nichole Causey. Nichole is part of my team at Fab Fertile. She is a Reiki Master who specializes in manifestation, self-love, confidence, trusting your intuition, and fulfilling desires. In this episode you’ll learn: 1) How to deepen your intuition during the fertility journey (i.e. how do we trust the process and feel in our heart we are fertile) 2) What if we feel broken how do create a new path forward 3) How do we turn to our partner during this journey and not away (i.e. men and women handle the fertility journey differently – how do we honor this difference) Excited that our LIVE Fertility Diet Challenge is launching on Nov 8th. You'll receive newly designed chef-prepared recipes (perfect for autumn and curated to optimize fertility). There will be daily motivation, guidance, and support from the Fab Fertile Team.

Sarah Clark & Justine Altman joins us this week to dig into the how-to move from the Standard American/Western Diet to a healthy diet for your fertility. Let’s face it eating a diet that is right for our fertility is confusing. Whether it’s fertility superfoods, generalized recommendations about what to eat, or avoid for optimized fertility…we may not know where to start. However, we all know that eating packaged processed foods is not healthy for anyone – especially if we are trying to conceive. Changing to a healthy preconception diet is not about deprivation or eating food that tastes like cardboard. It’s about finding the most nutrient-dense foods that actually taste good so that you can prepare for a successful pregnancy. And it’s not a “diet” – it’s a lifestyle change that literally is life-changing – our clients tell us so! You have your WHY, so let’s get started. I'm excited to welcome Justine Altman back to the podcast. Justine is part of my team here at Fab Fertile. She is an integral part of our Couples Coaching program - which uses functional lab testing, diet, and lifestyle changes to dramatically improve conception. If you are struggling with infertility...your body is desperately trying to tell you something...focusing on your health will either help you get pregnant naturally or if you do need to go to the fertility clinic it will improve your chances of success. Justine is a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner. She was diagnosed with POCS and struggled with infertility but after taking a functional approach was able to have both her children naturally. In this episode you'll learn: 1) How to make the change from the standard western diet to the healthy fertility diet/lifestyle 2) How to set your intention so you stay committed. These changes may be simple but they are not easy. 3) How to keep it simple without spending hours in the kitchen cooking. 4) What to look for on labels so you don’t eat the wrong foods. 5) What to do about emotional eating. How to deal with excuses or lack of motivation 6) Why it’s important to include your partner in the changes Excited that our LIVE Fertility Diet Challenge is launching on Nov 8th. You'll receive newly designed chef-prepared recipes (perfect for autumn and curated to optimize fertility). There will be daily motivation, guidance, and support from the Fab Fertile Team.

"It's about baby upgrades." Emotional responses to food and how your palate can change 25:41- WHEN READING LABELS WHAT SHOULD WE LOOK FOR? Being intentional where you go in the grocery store "Be your own detective with the labels."

Thyroids don't just stop working.” Reasons why your thyroid might be having issues- “There are reasons your thyroid is under attack.’ Figuring out the root cause so you might not even need Synthroid. Some “easy” fixes that you could look into and things you can do!

Mary Wagstaff joins us this week as we’re digging into how to quit drinking so you can optimize chances of pregnancy success. Did you know that studies have found even drinking as few as 4 alcoholic drinks per week – decreases IVF live birth rate? Plus alcohol has been shown to decrease the quality, quantity, and motility of sperm. But how do we commit and remove alcohol from our routine and equally as important how do we navigate social situations where we may feel pressure to imbibe? In this episode you'll learn: 1) How the cravings for alcohol change throughout the menstrual cycle. Why it’s not our fault. 2) How to finally deal with the societal pressure of drinking. 3) Why chasing the buzz of nostalgia (i.e. drinking is the only way we can have fun).

You want to make sure you are getting the appropriate doses at the appropriate times.” Are there reasons for low Progesterone? “Progesterone peaks during the second half of the cycle.” (why we need to adjust doses!) --- Sponsored by Fab Fertile Store.
