    Trying to Conceive? Why A Man’s Role Matters More Than You Think With Sam Diamond, Founder of Bird&Be

    If the trying-to-conceive aisle has ever made you feel overwhelmed or alone, this conversation will feel like a deep exhale. We sit down with Samantha Diamond—founder and CEO of Bird & Be—to unpack what it really takes to make fertility care clear, kind, and a shared journey between partners. Samantha opens up about an early PCOS diagnosis, a later miscarriage, and the isolation that followed—even with a fertility specialist at home. That lived experience led to a mission: bring the approachable clarity of beauty marketing to reproductive health without losing scientific rigor. We talk about the education gaps that leave women scrambling when it's time to "try", how integrative care blends medicine with lifestyle, and the specific red flags—like day-3 FSH and ovarian reserve changes—that should prompt a faster trip to the doctor. We also place men squarely in the frame. Sperm quality affects placental development, pregnancy health, and even childhood outcomes. Samantha shares clinical results from Bird & Be’s male supplement showing meaningful improvements in motility and morphology within three months, plus why sperm’s quick regeneration opens a powerful window for change. For the ladies, we dig into egg quality, oxidative stress, and the three-month folliculogenesis timeline, highlighting CoQ10, Mediterranean-style nutrition, sleep, and strength training—especially heavy lifting for PCOS—as key levers. If you’re ready to replace confusion with clarity and carry the load together, press play.

    2nd Trimester Recap: sizing up for confidence, my workouts & wardrobe, round ligament pain, & savoring time with my kids!

    Sorry, but I definitely did not sign any approval form for my second trimester flying by that fast?! It’s funny- with your first, you’re counting down every single day until birth. By the third, you’re begging time to slow down… or is that just me?? Either way, I’m grateful to officially check off my second tri—it’s always been the easiest one in my book. I thought it’d be fun to bring you along for a little recap of the past few months: second-trimester milestones, tug-of-war emotions, some “controversial” choices I’m making this time around, a cervix update, and a Q&A submitted by you lovely ladies. Let’s get into it. What I cover: • Wild fatigue caused by vitamin D and iron deficiencies (and how I fixed it) • Glucose testing options + my Fresh Test experience • Managing anxiety while staying on low-dose Lexapro • Early bump, round ligament pain, and body acceptance • Ditching the scale and sizing up for confidence • What my workout routine looks like these days • Yes, I’m eating sushi, deli meats and taking a damn bubble bath • A non-maternity wardrobe that actually fits • Am I doing a “sprinkle”… or a babymoon??

    You’re Not Broken: Why Sexual Desire Shifts Postpartum And How To Find Your Way Back with Karly Ryan I Episode 10

    We know it can feel like it...but desire didn’t disappear after having a baby—it just changed shape. I invited intimacy and relationship coach Karly Ryan to unpack why postpartum libido shifts, how maternal brain plasticity and hormones like prolactin reroute attention, and what it really takes to feel sensual again when you’re tired, touched out, and navigating a new identity. Using the lens of the maiden and mother archetypes, we talk about honoring both energies without pitting them against each other, and how small rituals can help you reclaim the parts of you that felt lost in the fog. What We Discuss: maiden and mother archetypes explained (so relatable!)postpartum brain changes and hormones affecting libido surrendering the void and reframing identity sensuality as daily practice and pilot light gentle self-pleasure without toys to reconnect practical ways couples can reconnect without forcing sexintimacy beyond sex through touchpoints and timing midday windows for desire and reducing pressure tantric options and fantasy playsimple rituals to call your energy back If you’ve wondered “Who am I now?” or felt guilty that old rituals no longer work, this conversation offers science-backed reassurance and compassionate tools. Expect clear takeaways you can try today to reduce pressure, create safety, and let desire rise at your pace.

    Dr. Sasha Hackman: What Every Woman Should Know About Her Fertility Before, During, and After Kids I Episode 9

    Ladies, it's time we look at "fertility" as a life long discussion, not just one around the "trying to conceive" phase. Your period is a vital sign—and it’s time we treated it like one. So I invited double board‑certified reproductive endocrinologist Dr. Sasha Hackman on the pod this week to map the full arc of fertility and a women's reproductive health before thinking about kids, during the "trying" phase, & why it matters most even after having kids. We deep dive into what to track before "trying", when to seek fertility intervention if it's just not happening naturally, why freezing your eggs is an insurance plan if kids aren't in the near future, and why postpartum hormones can both help and hinder the path to baby number two or three (we talk secondary infertility too). We trace fertility across a woman’s life with Dr. Sasha Hackman, from first period to postpartum, with clear steps to measure, plan, and protect your options. She shares real odds, practical testing, and how to choose treatments that fit your age, goals, and timeline. MORE OF WHAT WE DISCUSS: • reframing fertility as lifelong reproductive health • IVF strategy, IUI limits and realistic success rates • embryo banking to match bigger family goals • postpartum hormone shifts and surprise conception • secondary infertility drivers and endometriosis impact • male factor basics and the three‑month sperm reset • cycle tracking tools and luteal phase support • why your period is a vital sign for long‑term health • PCOS vs NCCAH and how pills can mask issues More on Dr. Sasha Hackman: Website: HERE Instagram: HERE Podcast: Trying To Conceive HERE  If you loved Sasha’s episode, would love for you to leave a comment or share this ep. with a friend.

    My 10 Non-Negotiables for 2026: The "2-Out-of-3" Rule, Chore Audits & Why Inner Peace Is The New Productivity | Episode 8

    Happy 2026! If you felt like you hit a wall on January 1st instead of hitting the ground running, this episode is for you. I am planting my flag for the new year -- not with a list of aesthetic resolutions or pressure-filled goals, but with 10 Personal Non-Negotiables designed for a calmer, clearer, and more aligned year.  In this solo episode, we ease into 2026 by ditching the "New Year, New Me" panic. I break down my personal standards for motherhood, partnerships, and ambition - including why I'm done "keeping score" in my relationship, the specific chore systems that saved my mental load, and why "Inner Peace is the New Productivity."  Whether you need permission to lower your daily standards (hello, the "2 out of 3" rule), a strategy to time-block your chaos, or just a reminder that "No" is a complete sentence, grab your notebook (or just listen while you drive) and let's build a year that actually feels good.  In this episode, we cover: The "Soft Launch": Why I ignored the January 1st pressure and how to use the "Camera Roll Method" to find your joy.Motherhood: My "Two Out of Three" Rule for feeling put together and why 10 minutes of presence beats a perfect schedule. Relationship: Why we don't keep score, we keep systems (and the weekly check-in that prevents resentment). The Chore Audit: Explicitly dividing household tasks (like the trash vs. the groceries) to eliminate the "Mental Load." Ambition: How I time-block my actual priorities and conducting a "High Effort, Low Return" audit on my work. Energy & Boundaries: Why "That doesn't work for us" is a full sentence and quitting one-sided friendships. Connect with The Milk: Subscribe on your favorite audio platform for your weekly dose of unfiltered motherhood.Review the Show: If this episode resonated with you, please leave a review to help us grow!Chapter Markers: 00:00 – A Softer Start to 2026: Letting go of Jan 1st Pressure  06:45 – Reflection: The "Camera Roll" Exercise & Finding Joy  17:00 – Bucket 1: Motherhood.

    Sami Brooks: Choosing Two Under Two, Body Image Tips, Pregnancy #2, & The Dream That Told Her "It's A Girl"! I Episode 7

    This week I’m sitting down with a very special (and pregnant!) friend — Sami Brooks — and this one felt like the kind of conversation that makes you exhale and go, okay… I’m not alone. We talk about what it really looks like to grow a family fast: deciding to go for babies close in age, a long labor that ended in a C-section, and the dream that had her convinced she was having a little girl. Sami shares how the hardest nights can either pull you apart or weld you together — and what it looks like to choose “us vs. the problem” when you’re both running on fumes. If you’ve ever wondered how couples stay close between night feeds and nap schedules, this episode is basically a love letter to teamwork (with plenty of humor). And yes, we get into the real pregnancy stuff — the nausea that won’t quit, the fatigue that makes your bones feel heavy, hormonal surprises like rashes and acne, and the old wives’ tales that are weirdly accurate… until they’re not. Sami also tells the most iconic gender reveal story (it involves sumo suits), plus we talk intuition vs. tracking apps and how postpartum can change what you trust most. We also get super practical for anyone navigating close-in-age siblings: strollers, car seats, third-row cars, travel/airport logistics, and little ways to include your toddler so jealousy turns into belonging. And of course, body image gets honest. The unglamorous first trimester, carb-only survival days, jeans that won’t button, and the shift from body perfection to body neutrality. We share simple ways to rebuild strength postpartum — breath work, deep core + pelvic floor basics, and finding trainers/programs that actually understand postpartum bodies. If you’re pregnant, newly postpartum, a seasoned mom in the chaos, or just trying to feel more normal in this season — this one’s for you.

    SURPRISE Gender Reveal! + Why We Aren’t Married Yet & The Hard Truths of Parenting | Episode 5

    Parenthood doesn’t ask for permission; it moves in, rearranges the furniture, and hands you a love so big it scares you. In this episode, we are getting cozy. Join Tayla Burke and Scotty McKnight (from the comfort of their bed) for a candid holiday conversation about the hard truths we tend to keep quiet: the guilt of craving a break, the ache of missing your kids while you’re gone, and the shock of realizing your heart now lives outside your body. We reflect on a recent day-date to Boulder, Colorado without the kids, compared to the chaos of past European family travels, open up about the trauma of the day our house burned down, and discuss why "surrender" is the real parenting superpower. We also break down why "work-life balance" is a myth and introduce a more honest framework: The Pizza Pie Analogy. Some days work gets the biggest slice, other days parenting does, and the rest—marriage, friends, health, even hair-wash day—shifts with the season. AND FINALLY... joy knocks on the door in the sweetest way. Stay until the very end for a surprise gender reveal that shifts our family story forever. In this episode, we cover: • 01:55 – The Elephant in the Room: Why we keep having babies but aren't married yet. • 06:30 – Hard Truth #1: Why loving your kids and desperately needing a break can coexist. • 09:00 – Hard Truth #2: The anxiety of your heart living outside your body. • 24:00 – The "Pie" Analogy: Why balance is a myth and how to slice your life differently every day. • 32:00 – Travel Disasters: When the plan falls apart, it’s just an adventure. • 48:30 – Parenting Through Trauma: Showing up for your kids even when your house burns down. • 55:30 – THE SURPRISE: A donut-fueled gender reveal! #GenderReveal #TheMilkPodcast #ParentingTruths #MomOf3 #SurprisePregnancy #WorkLifeBalance #RealTalk #TaylaBurke #ScottyMcKnight Follow The Milk Podcast on all platforms for weekly episodes that remind you you're not alone, you're not crazy, and you're doing way better than you think.
