Win Wednesday: Changing Exercise Habits, Eating More, Group Coaching with Sara

Welcome to another episode of Food, Freedom, and Fertility. In this Win Wednesday episode host Caitlin Johnson and Sophia Pavia speak with Sara on working with Sophia not once but twice in her trying to conceive journey. Sara worked with Sophia in two different ways. She first reached out to Sophia after she was told by her reproductive endocrinologist that she would need to try IUI and letrozole to conceive. Sara described wanting to look deeper into her fertility which led her to Sophia's podcast, instagram account and later her course.  After completing Sophia's course Sara incorporated different eating habits, different exercise habits and all around lifestyle changes like swapping out cleaning products, changing the type of pots and pans used in the kitchen and more. Sara said she was ready to reach back out to her reproductive endocrinologist once her cycle arrived but it never did. Meaning, Sara got pregnant in the wild after taking Sophia's course!  Sara talks about working with Sophia again after her son was born and instead choosing to do the group coaching course Sophia offers. This episode is full of helpful tips, information and insight on what worked for Sara to get pregnant, stay pregnant and deliver a healthy baby!
