On today's episode of The Wholesome Fertility Podcast, I'm joined by Gabriella Rosa @dr.gabrielarosa, a globally recognised fertility specialist and researcher, to unpack the truth about fertility after 40.

We explore why age alone is not the real issue, what actually impacts egg and sperm quality, and how metabolic health, lifestyle factors, and emotional wellbeing play a much bigger role in conception than most people are told. Gabriella also shares insights from her clinical research and discusses the importance of addressing fertility-related trauma and stress.

This episode offers clarity, hope, and evidence-based guidance for anyone navigating fertility in their late 30s and 40s.

Key Takeaways:

• Fertility myths around age 35 and 40
• Egg quality, sperm quality, and mitochondrial health
• Why fertility is a team effort
• Metabolic health and lifestyle factors that influence conception
• The emotional impact of infertility and why support matters
• Gabriella's clinical trial supporting emotional wellbeing in fertility

On today's episode of The Wholesome Fertility Podcast, Michelle offers a heartfelt dose of hope for anyone feeling discouraged, exhausted, or unsure on their fertility journey. Drawing from years of experience as a fertility acupuncturist and coach, Michelle shares powerful stories from her clinic. These stories include women who were told their chances were low, who received discouraging lab results, or who felt their bodies were failing them, yet still went on to conceive.

This episode explores the often overlooked unseen intelligence guiding your fertility. This includes the subtle signs, inner wisdom, emotional landscape, and spiritual connection that influence your body just as much as lab numbers do. Michelle also dives into the science behind belief and emotional states, referencing insights from cellular biologist Bruce Lipton and psychologist Dr. Lisa Miller to bridge the gap between spirituality and physiology.

If you are craving reassurance, perspective, and a reminder that your journey is still unfolding in ways you may not yet see, this episode is for you.

Key Takeaways:

• Your fertility journey is shaped by both the physical and the unseen. Numbers matter, but they are not the whole story.
• Lab values are only a snapshot in time. They can and often do change.
• Miraculous pregnancies can and do happen, even after discouraging diagnoses.
• Emotional and spiritual alignment deeply influence your physiology and hormonal environment.
• Belief, joy, and hope are not only comforting. They are biologically impactful.
• Your body operates through an extraordinary intelligence that we are only beginning to understand.
• Connecting with your spirit baby or inner guidance can open doors in unexpected ways.
