Fresh off a trip to Florida, I came home and got hit with a flu so hard it knocked me off my feet for almost a week. It drained me physically, emotionally and mentally. As I slowly recovered, I kept thinking about you, because when you're trying to conceive, getting sick brings up a whole extra layer of worry. Will this mess up my cycle? Did I just lose this month? What if I conceived and I have a fever?

In today's episode, I explain what really happens in your body when you catch a virus. I also cover how a cold or flu can affect your cycle depending on whether you're in your follicular phase, around ovulation or in your two-week wait, and what the research says about implantation and early pregnancy. Then I share my top science-backed remedies for supporting your body through flu season, including the one supplement to use with caution in your luteal phase. Grab a cozy blanket and a cup of tea, and let's help you stay healthy and fertile this fall.

In today's episode, I'm sitting down with psychotherapist Laura Federico and midwife Morgan Miller, co-authors of The Cycle Book, and they are pulling back the curtain on PMS, PMDD, and a lesser-known pattern called PME that could be quietly running the show in your cycle.

We're also getting refreshingly honest about the pressure that trying to conceive can put on intimacy. Laura and Morgan help normalize the sexual and emotional side of this journey, and they share some alternative solutions you may not have considered. And stick around, because near the end, Morgan drops a warning about the app on your phone that you are going to want to hear.

Today's episode is one I think so many of you have been waiting for, because we're talking about the thing that gets sacrificed first on this journey and yet matters more than almost anything else: your sleep.

I'm sitting down with therapist and sleep expert Chrissy Lawler, and she is going to walk us through why sleep is basically a performance-enhancing drug for your fertility, what "good sleep" actually looks like for your unique body, and how to protect your rest through the wild ride of preconception, pregnancy and postpartum. We're also getting into her concept of secure attachment, and why a well-rested you is one of the greatest gifts you can give your future child. So get cozy, because this one is equal parts science and soul.
