    EP 60: Why Someone Else's Fertility Journey Will Not Work for You (And What to Do Instead)

    Are you doing everything right, tracking ovulation, temping, taking all the supplements, and still not seeing that positive test? You are not broken, and you are definitely not alone. So many women on this journey are following advice that looks perfect on paper but is not actually designed for their unique body. In this episode, I am getting real about the hard lesson I had to learn myself: that fertility is not a formula you can copy and paste from someone else's journey. I am sharing why all the color-coded schedules and supplement stacks in the world will not work if you are not listening to what your body is actually asking for, and how slowing down might be the most powerful thing you can do right now. Timestamp: [00:00:00] Why someone else's fertility formula did not work for Coach Sophie[00:01:00] The trap of turning TTC into a project with schedules and supplement boxes[00:02:00] What Sophie was missing: stress, hormones, gut health, and thyroid[00:03:00] Why focusing on ovulation tracking alone keeps you stuck[00:04:00] The shift: slowing down and listening to what your body actually needs[00:04:45] How to find your personal fertility blind spot and your next best step Episode Takeaway: Your Body Is Not a Formula: What worked for someone else on TikTok or in a Facebook group may not be what your body needs. Your cycle, your hormones, and your history are unique to you. More Is Not Always More: Piling on supplements and tracking tools can actually create more noise. Some supplements will throw off your cycle, some will do nothing, and only a few will be exactly right for you. Look at the Full Picture: Ovulation tracking is just one piece. The things that truly move the needle are often the internal factors like stress, gut health, thyroid function, and hormone balance. Slow Down to Speed Up: When Sophie stopped managing her body and started listening to it, everything shifted. Pausing to really understand what is going on inside is not giving up. It is getting smart. Resources Find Your Fertility Blindspot Quiz Heal to Conceive System    This journey can feel incredibly isolating, especially when it seems like everything is working for everyone else but you. But I promise you, you are not doing it wrong. You just have not found what works for YOUR body yet.

    EP 59: How Listening to My Body After 4 Years of TTC Finally Got Me Pregnant

    Are you doing all the things, the supplements, the pineapple core, the temping, the tracking, and still not seeing those two pink lines? I know that exhaustion intimately, because I lived it for four years. The answer I finally found had nothing to do with another supplement stack or a new protocol. It started with the smell of eggs. In this episode, I'm sharing the real, raw story of the moment I stopped fighting my body and finally got pregnant after four years of trying. We're talking about why the standard TTC checklist can actually work against you, how your body is already sending you signals you might be ignoring, and the simple but powerful shift that took me from survival mode to finally seeing those two pink lines in just 12 weeks. Timestamp: [00:00:00] The moment that changed everything: it started with some eggs.[00:00:45] How obsessing over everyone else's advice kept Sophie stuck.[00:01:30] The first sign her body was asking for something different.[00:02:00] What two weeks of truly listening looked like in real life.[00:02:30] Getting pregnant in 12 weeks after 4 years of trying.[00:03:00] Why fertility is not a checklist and why that mindset can stall your journey.[00:04:00] How your body talks to you every single day.[00:05:00] Your next step: finding your fertility blind spot. Episode Takeaway: Your Body Is Already Talking: Headaches, bloating, poor sleep, changes in digestion, these are not random. They are your body sending you real, usable information about what it needs. Start paying attention. The Checklist Mentality Can Backfire: Supplements, temping, and trending TTC tips are not one-size-fits-all. Until you understand what is uniquely going on in your body, generic advice can actually throw your cycle off balance. Survival Mode Blocks Conception: When your body is under chronic stress, from over-exercising, poor nutrition, or emotional overwhelm, it will prioritize survival over reproduction. Calming your nervous system is not optional. It is foundational. The Shift Is Personal, Not Clinical: Sophie's turning point was not a dramatic test result or a doctor's breakthrough. It was a quiet, honest moment of listening. Your turning point might look just as simple, and just as powerful.

    EP 57: CoQ10 for Fertility: What It Actually Does, the Right Dosage, and Who Should Take It

    Are you spending a small fortune on supplements, hoping one of them will finally be the thing that moves the needle on your fertility journey? I have been right there with you, staring at a cupboard full of half-finished bottles, wondering if any of it was actually working. When it comes to CoQ10, there is a lot of noise out there, and it can be hard to separate the real science from the hype. In this episode, I am breaking down everything you need to know about CoQ10, one of the most talked-about supplements in the trying to conceive community. We cover what it actually does inside your cells, what the research really says about egg quality and IVF outcomes, and the four key things you need to know before you take it. By the end, you will know whether CoQ10 deserves a spot in your routine or if your energy is better spent elsewhere. Timestamp: [00:00:00] Why CoQ10 became a staple in Coach Sophie's supplement journey[00:01:00] What CoQ10 does at the cellular level and why eggs need it[00:01:45] What the research actually says about CoQ10 and fertility outcomes[00:02:30] Key tip 1: Why you should choose ubiquinol over CoQ10[00:02:50] Key tip 2: The right dosage range and why to check with your provider[00:03:15] Key tip 3: Why pairing CoQ10 with healthy fat matters for absorption[00:03:30] Key tip 4: The 90-day rule and why timing your supplement protocol is everything Episode Takeaway: Choose Ubiquinol: Ubiquinol is the bioavailable form of CoQ10, meaning your body absorbs and uses it more effectively. If you are going to invest in this supplement, make sure you are buying the right version. Get the Dosage Right: Research points to 200 to 600 milligrams daily, but your sweet spot depends on your body and what else you are taking. Always loop in your healthcare provider before adjusting your dose. Pair It with Fat: CoQ10 is fat-soluble, so take it with a meal that includes healthy fats like avocado, eggs, or olive oil to maximize absorption and get the most out of every capsule. Commit to 90 Days: The eggs you ovulate today were developing 90 days ago. Any supplement you start now will not show its full impact until three months in, so be patient and stay consistent. CoQ10 Is One Piece, Not the Whole Puzzle: It can support egg quality, especially for women with low ovarian reserve or those going through IVF, but it will not do the work alone. Inflammation, your uterine lining, and your whole body picture all matter too. Resources Find Your Fertility Blindspot Quiz Heal to Conceive System    I know how overwhelming it can feel to stand in the supplement aisle wondering if you are doing enough. You are not alone in that, and you do not have to figure it all out by yourself.

    EP 56: Five Things You Need to Know When You Start Trying to Conceive

    Are you just starting your trying to conceive journey and feeling like you somehow missed a class everyone else took? You are not alone. So many of us spent years being taught how NOT to get pregnant, only to realize we have no idea how our own bodies actually work when it comes time to welcome a baby. In this episode, I am breaking down the five essential things I wish someone had told me at the very beginning of my own fertility journey. From picking the right prenatal to understanding why your birth control history matters more than you think, these are the real, practical steps that can save you time, confusion, and heartache right from the start. Timestamp: [00:00:00] Why so many women are blindsided when they start trying to conceive[00:00:30] Tip 1: Starting a prenatal and the good, better, best method[00:02:00] Tip 2: Understanding your full cycle, not just tracking dates[00:02:45] Tip 3: Giving your body grace after hormonal birth control[00:03:30] Tip 4: Getting your baseline testing done[00:04:30] Tip 5: How often you actually need to baby dance during your fertile window Episode Takeaway: Start a Prenatal Now: You do not need to find the perfect one before you begin. Something is always better than nothing, and working your way up to a third party tested prenatal over time is a great goal. Learn Your Full Cycle: Tracking your cycle means more than just knowing your start and end date. Understanding when you ovulate, how long your luteal phase is, and the quality of your bleeding days gives you a much fuller picture of your fertility health. Be Patient After Birth Control: Hormonal birth control can take anywhere from three months to a full year to fully clear your system. Give your body grace during this transition instead of adding pressure. Get Your Baseline Numbers: Key tests like AMH, FSH, antral follicle count, and Vitamin D give you a real starting point. Knowing where you are today helps shape the approach that is going to bring your baby home. You Do Not Need to Baby Dance Every Day: Every other day during your fertile window, or even just peak day and ovulation day, is enough. Sperm survives up to five days inside the uterus, and protecting the intimacy and connection in your relationship is just as important as the timing. Resources Find Your Fertility Blindspot Quiz Heal to Conceive System    You are just getting started and that means you are already one step ahead. This journey is not always easy, but you do not have to figure it out alone. Come join us in the Heal to Conceive Tribe where we are walking this road together, cheering each other on, and holding space for every single one of your dreams.

    EP 55: Fertility Meal Planning Made Simple: 4 Steps to Build Fertility-Friendly Meals

    Are you staring into your fridge wondering what on earth you're supposed to eat to support your fertility? I've been there, standing in the grocery store completely overwhelmed, trying to decode whether everything in my cart was helping or hurting my chances. The good news is that eating for your fertility does not have to be complicated, and you do not have to force down foods you hate just because someone told you to. In this episode, I'm breaking down four simple steps to build a fertility-friendly meal plan that actually works for your life and your taste buds. We are talking about balancing your blood sugar, choosing a fertility diet that fits your body, and building meals around a core foundation so that sticking to the plan feels easy, not exhausting. Timestamp: [00:00:00] Why fertility meal planning does not have to be complicated[00:00:30] The two non-negotiables for any fertility nutrition plan[00:01:15] Step 1: Choosing the right fertility diet for your body[00:01:45] Step 2: Picking four core meals you actually love[00:02:20] Step 3: Building meals around protein, vegetables, and healthy fat[00:02:55] Step 4: Repeat your staples and shake up the flavors[00:03:20] What Coach Sophie kept in her fridge when she was TTC Episode Takeaway: Balance Your Blood Sugar First: Too much sugar or a big blood sugar crash sends your body into fight or flight mode, which makes it feel anything but safe for a baby. Keeping your blood sugar stable is one of the most powerful things you can do for your hormones. Find a Fertility Diet That Works for You: Anti-inflammatory, Mediterranean, vegetarian, keto, carnivore. There is no one-size-fits-all. The best fertility diet is the one you can actually stick to and that makes your body feel good. Build Every Meal Around a Core Foundation: Protein, vegetables, and healthy fat are your anchors. If you are including carbohydrates, go for color, low sugar, and lots of flavor to keep things nourishing and delicious. Keep Four Core Meals in Rotation: Pick four simple meals you love that align with your chosen diet and always have the ingredients on hand. This one habit removes decision fatigue and makes it so much easier to stay on track during a busy week. Cook Once, Eat Twice: Making a little extra at dinner means lunch is already handled. Small prep habits like this add up and take so much pressure off your plate, literally. Resources Find Your Fertility Blindspot Quiz Heal to Conceive System    You are doing an incredible job showing up for yourself and your future baby, and I want you to remember that nourishing your body is one of the most loving things you can do on this journey. You do not have to figure it all out at once. Start with four meals, stock your fridge, and take it one week at a time.

    EP 54: How to Track Your Cycle Without Losing Your Mind When Trying to Conceive

    Are you spending more time Googling LH strip photos and comparing BBT charts than actually enjoying your life? If tracking has started to feel like a second job you never signed up for, you are so not alone. The data matters, but not if it's costing you your peace. In this episode, I'm breaking down the three core tracking methods every woman trying to conceive should know about, BBT, OPK, and cervical mucus, and more importantly, how to figure out which one actually works for YOUR life. I'm also sharing why it is completely okay to put the thermometer down sometimes, and how to build a tracking routine that gives you the information you need without the mental spiral. Timestamp: [00:00:00] Why tracking matters when you're trying to conceive[00:01:00] It is okay to take a tracking break[00:02:00] Tracking as your body's GPS: what the data actually tells you[00:02:45] The three main tracking methods explained: BBT, OPK, and cervical mucus[00:03:30] Multiple ways to track each method and how to choose what fits you[00:04:30] When fertility technology helps vs. when it hurts your mental health[00:05:30] Simplifying your tracking: progress over perfection Episode Takeaway: Tracking Is Your Body's GPS: Without tracking data, you are left guessing about your fertile window and whether you ovulated at all. Even one simple method can give you the clarity you need to time things right and have real conversations with your doctor. You Do Not Have to Do All Three: BBT, OPK, and cervical mucus together give you the most complete picture, but using just one method consistently is so much better than doing all three and burning out. Pick the one that feels easiest and start there. The Right Method Is the One You Will Actually Use: Digital LH monitors, strips, wearables like Tempdrop, or just observing cervical mucus. None of them are wrong. The best tracker is the one that does not send you into a Google rabbit hole at midnight. It Is Okay to Put It Down: If you have been tracking for a while and your mental health is waving a white flag, take the break. Some women know their bodies so well after months of tracking that they can feel ovulation coming. Trust that knowledge. Consistency Over Perfection: You do not need a flawless chart every single month. Lock in on one method, do it for a full cycle, and add more only if and when it feels right for you.

    EP 53: The Great Fertility Lock-In: 4 Simple Habits to Build Your Fertility Foundation in 4 Months

    Are you deep in the TTC world, trying every supplement, every tea, every protocol, and somehow feeling more lost than when you started? I see you, and honestly, it might be time to strip it all the way back. When we pile on too much too fast, we stop being able to hear what our body is actually telling us. In this episode, I'm bringing the Great Fertility Lock-In to the fertility space. Forget the overwhelming supplement stacks and fancy add-ons for now. We are going back to basics with four foundational habits over the next four months: eating a fertility-friendly diet, moving your body daily, tracking your cycle like your baby depends on it (because it does), and releasing the emotional weight you have been carrying. I am breaking down exactly why each one matters and how to start without burning yourself out in week one. Timestamp: [00:00:00] What the Great Lock-In of 2025 has to do with your fertility journey[00:01:00] The 4 fertility fundamentals for the next 4 months[00:02:00] Why nutrition and movement are the non-negotiables[00:02:45] The 3 stages of getting pregnant and why cycle tracking unlocks everything[00:04:00] The truth behind "just relax" and what stress actually does to your hormones[00:04:45] Why supplements are not the star of the show[00:06:00] How to start tracking your cycle no matter where you are right now[00:08:00] Mindset as your secret fertility weapon and how to actually release the hard stuff Episode Takeaway: Eat for Your Fertility First: Everything you put in your body touches your cells, your eggs, your uterus. A fertility-friendly diet is the foundation before any supplement earns its place. Track Your Cycle to Know Where to Focus: If you are not ovulating, no implantation supplement will help you. Understanding your cycle tells you exactly which of the three stages of conception needs your attention right now. Move Your Body Every Single Day: Even 20 minutes of walking counts. Movement reduces stress, brings oxygen to your womb and eggs, and helps your body clear out toxins. Consistency beats intensity every time. Release the Emotions Before They Fester: Chronic stress tells your body it is not safe to get pregnant, and your body will listen. Journal it, voice note it, type it out. Whatever gets it out of your body and stops it from settling in. Keep It Simple for 4 Months: Four habits, four months, one focus. The goal is not perfection. It is building a body that feels safe, nourished, and ready to welcome your baby home.

    EP 52: Three Things I Wish I Knew Sooner on My Fertility Journey

    Are you spending hours scrolling through fertility forums, trying every supplement you've heard about, and still feeling like you're missing something? I've been exactly where you are, and looking back, there were a few key things that would have changed everything for me if I had known them sooner. The good news is, you don't have to wait as long as I did to figure them out. In this episode, I'm sharing the three things I wish I had known and implemented at the very beginning of my fertility journey. We're talking about what your cycle is actually trying to tell you, why supplements are not the answer you think they are, and how your nervous system and sense of safety in your body play a bigger role in conception than most people ever talk about. If you want to stop chasing every trend on social media and start leaning into what your body actually needs, this one is for you. Timestamp: [00:00:00] Welcome and today's topic introduction[00:00:30] Tip 1: Track your full cycle, not just your LH spike[00:01:20] Tip 2: The truth about supplements and why they are not the star of the show[00:02:00] Tip 3: How nervous system safety impacts your ability to conceive[00:02:30] Why leaning into your body is the fastest path to bringing your baby home Episode Takeaway: Know Your Cycle Inside and Out: Your cycle holds so much information about what is happening in your body. Track beyond your first LH spike and follow through to the end of your cycle so you can see the full picture and stop guessing. Supplements Support, They Don't Fix: Think of supplements like background singers. They are there to enhance and support, but they are not Beyonce. Know what is truly going on in your body first, then add supplements to support that foundation. Bring Safety Back to Your Body: If your nervous system is in survival mode, your body will block you from getting pregnant. Safety is not just emotional. It can show up as pain, inflammation, or hormone imbalances too. Find what helps your body feel safe, and make that a priority.
