Progesterone is essential for sustaining pregnancy, yet it’s often overlooked or dismissed in conventional care. In this episode, I explain why many doctors don’t routinely test or support progesterone, how medical training influences fertility care, and what red flags to watch for.

We talk about self-advocacy, aligning with providers who share your values, and why low progesterone is usually a sign of a deeper root issue. I also share how faith, wisdom, and science work together in healing the cycle and supporting pregnancy.

Episode Highlights:

• Why progesterone is rarely tested early on
• How doctors are trained (and what they aren’t taught)
• When to advocate, educate, or find a new provider
• Why progesterone support often needs to happen before pregnancy
• How faith, wisdom, and science work together in fertility care

Hey sister, today’s episode is a vulnerable one. I’m sharing my most recent birth experience, one of the hardest seasons I’ve walked through, even as a doula. This pregnancy and birth challenged everything I thought I knew and reminded me how unpredictable labor can be.

Episode Highlights:

• Why every pregnancy and every birth is completely unique
• How a hard pregnancy can change what kind of birth support you need
• What a three-day labor taught me about surrender and expectations
• Why experience and knowledge don’t replace the need for support
• The real role of a doula (and why she doesn’t replace your husband)
• How God used this birth to teach me wisdom, rest, and self-care
• Encouragement for preparing for birth without fear

Hey sister! Today, I'm highlighting miscarriage. It is talked about more than it used to be, but the details often stay hidden. In this episode, I’m sitting with you in the hard places and sharing what I wish more women were told about miscarriage symptoms, emotional fallout, and what your body and heart may experience after loss.

I share parts of my own story, what symptoms can be normal (and what aren’t), how to know when to seek help, and why faith and emotional regulation matter just as much as physical recovery. My prayer is that this episode feels like a soft, safe place to land - full of truth, compassion, and hope.

Episode Highlights:

• Common miscarriage symptoms and why they’re often confusing
• Silent miscarriage and being blindsided by loss
• Emotional and spiritual “crashes” after loss
• How to regulate your nervous system after trauma
• What happens hormonally after miscarriage
• Why waiting and healing before trying again matters
• When to seek immediate medical care
• How Jesus meets us in grief

Hey sister! I sat down with Justin Hai - founder of Rebalance Health - and we went deep into something that affects every single woman listening: cortisol. We talked about how our always-on world, our phones, notifications, and nonstop information are quietly pushing our bodies into fight-or-flight… and how that impacts everything from sleep to progesterone to fertility.

Episode Highlights:

Justin breaks down:

• Why cortisol isn’t the enemy, but being stuck in stress mode is
• How technology is hijacking our nervous systems
• The real reason sleep is so hard these days
• Why hormones are made at night (and what happens when we don’t rest)
• Simple lifestyle shifts that can completely change your health trajectory
• And how to reset after burnout, pregnancy, loss, or long seasons of exhaustion

This episode is part science, part wisdom, part practical reset - and honestly, it's one of my favourites we’ve done.

Hey sister! In this episode, I’m sharing a deeply personal invitation for how to begin your year with the Lord, especially if you are walking through miscarriage, TTC heartbreak, hormone struggles, or the fear of trying again. I tell a story from my own journey of conceiving our fourth baby, how God met me in a dark closet before ovulation, and how that sacred moment became a reminder of His nearness. I share practical steps for daily slowing down, inviting Jesus in, and learning to trust Him.

In today’s episode, I’m talking with my former Fertility Framework client Tanya - a dentist, Navy veteran, and devoted follower of Jesus who has walked a long road of infertility, loss, and deep spiritual surrender.

Episode Highlights:

Inside Fertility Framework, Tanya learned:

• How to understand her hormones
• Support her thyroid
• Slow down her lifestyle
• Walk closely with God through the waiting

You’ll hear how her symptoms improved, how her faith transformed, and why she believes Fertility Framework is a “no-brainer” for women wanting both root-cause support and spiritual guidance. This is a powerful, hope-filled testimony you don’t want to miss.

Today I’m welcoming back Angela Warren, one of my very first Fertility Framework clients and a longtime friend of the podcast. When she first shared her story back in episode 92, she was secretly newly pregnant. Today she’s back to tell the rest of her story.

Episode Highlights:

Angela shares:

• How charting and basal body temperature gave her the first hint she might be pregnant
• How she prepared for a natural hospital birth with a supportive OB, and the beautiful, unmedicated delivery of her son, Azariah.
• How she developed a severe kidney infection and sepsis 24 hours after birth, and her newborn being flown to a NICU by air ambulance.

Through all of it, God showed Himself faithful, and the meaning of her baby’s name, “helped by God,” became a living testimony. If you’re preparing for pregnancy, birth, or postpartum, Angela’s story will encourage you to prepare wisely and trust God deeply.
