  1. Trimester Zero: How WeNatal's Ronit Menashe Got Pregnant Naturally at 42 After Miscarriage — and What the Fertility Industry Isn't Telling You

    Trimester Zero: How WeNatal's Ronit Menashe Got Pregnant Naturally at 42 After Miscarriage — and What the Fertility Industry Isn't Telling You

    In this episode of Figuring It Out, I sit down with Ronit Menashe — co-founder of WeNatal, former and functional medicine advocate — for an honest and empowering conversation about fertility, egg quality, and preconception health. Ronit opens up about her own heartbreaking experience: a missed miscarriage at 12 weeks, a doctor who told her it was "just her age," and the moment she decided to stop listening to the conventional narrative and start doing the research herself. What she found changed everything — and ultimately led to her conceiving naturally at 42, without IVF, and later co-founding WeNatal, a science-backed prenatal supplement line that has now supported over 30,000 families.   In this episode, we cover: •What "trimester zero" is and why it may be the most important phase of your fertility journey •The truth about egg quality vs. egg quantity — and what you can actually control •Why male fertility is half the equation and almost always overlooked •The fertility blockers hiding in your home (and how to remove them without overhauling your life) •Why the $20 billion fertility industry may not be incentivized to tell you about diet and lifestyle •How to evaluate prenatal supplements — what to look for, what to avoid, and why not all prenatals are created equal •The role of choline, CoQ10, methyl folate, and mitochondrial health in egg quality •How to get your partner on board with preconception preparation •The mindset shift that helped Ronit take three months off from trying — and why it worked Whether you are actively trying to conceive, recovering from a loss, navigating IVF, or simply want to understand your reproductive health more deeply, I know this conversation will leave you feeling informed, empowered, and far less alone.   Resources mentioned: •WeNatal prenatal supplements: wenatal.com •Exclusive offer for Figuring It Out listeners — free magnesium with any subscription: wenatal.com/figuringitout •Dr. Natalie Crawford's book: The Fertility Formula •EWG (Environmental Working Group) product database: ewg.org   Connect with Ronit: @we_natal Ronit's Instagram WeNatal's Website   Connect with me:  Connect with me on Instagram  ShopMy - What I'm Loving Lately   Email: Hailey@hailey-miller.com

  2. Love is a marathon not a sprint

    FEB 20

    Love is a marathon not a sprint

    It's a common myth and narrative that love hits like fireworks—a single, undeniable lightning bolt moment. But for me, it was a long, often tumultuous journey of heartbreak, self-discovery, and a lot of patience that finally led me to my 'one.'   In this episode, I'm getting raw and unfiltered about the decade I spent single and the 'messy growth' it took to finally be ready for the relationship I have now. I'm sharing the real story of meeting my husband, from our first Hinge match to the quiet, profound moments where I realized he was different.   I'm diving into: The Myth of Instant Certainty: Why waiting for a 'sign' might be blocking you from the right person.   Increasing Your Surface Area for Luck: How getting outside your comfort zone (and your apartment!) creates the serendipity needed for love to find you.   Becoming the Right Partner: The hard truths I had to face in therapy about my own 'fake confidence' and how I was actually closing myself off.   The Power of Spontaneity: Why I'm learning to trade my 'recovering planner' tendencies for impromptu date nights at cozy hotel bars.   Whether you're single and feeling stuck, navigating the anxiety of a new relationship, or years into a marriage, this episode is a reminder that love is a marathon, not a sprint. It's not about the grand gestures; it's about the consistent, ordinary moments where you choose each other repeatedly.   I hope my story reminds you that your unique journey is exactly where it's supposed to be.

    Why modern relationships are so hard, resolving conflict, creating secure relationships, and how to make it work with Elizabeth Earnshaw (Rerun)

    With Valentine's Day on the horizon, I've been thinking a lot about love…not the chemistry sparking lust….but real love. What does it feel like? What makes it last? And how do you maintain your intimate relationships in a modern world.    In my wedding speech, I said that love isn't a grand gesture but the actions you take daily.    I don't think I'm naturally good in relationships – I put a lot thought and intention into how I communicate and treat my husband and today's guest was so helpful on my journey to being ready to meet my person.    So I wanted to bring you back to this conversation from 2021 with Licensed marriage and family therapist and clinical fellow of the america association of marriage & family therapy AND founder of A Better Life Therapy - Elizabeth Earnshaw.    In addition to making couples therapy more accessible, she is the author of "I Want This To Work". Elizabeth is also the host of Hash it Out on Good Risings where she offers advice to everyday relational conundrums.   We first chatted back in 2021 before her debut book, I WANT THIS TO WORK, was released. The book is an inclusive guide to navigating the most challenging relationship issues. Couples will learn to work with three challenges they must tackle to repair and strengthen their relationships: conflict, healing, and connection. Written for both married and unmarried couples, this book brings an accessible guide to healing relationships and creating enduring intimacy.

  4. New year, new priorities! A soft landing into 2026 goal setting

    New year, new priorities! A soft landing into 2026 goal setting

    In this solo episode, I'm sharing a how I'm taking a softer, more intentional start to 2026. After taking some time to rest, recharge, and step away from the pressure of productivity, I reflect on why slowing down has become essential for me. I talk about letting go of the urgency to reinvent myself overnight, embracing a gentler approach to goal-setting, and redefining what it means to succeed this year.  I also share my personal framework for setting goals—from identifying core life pillars (health, relationships, and passion) to choosing guiding words for the year like patience, fun, and excellence. This episode is an invitation to reflect, realign, and build a year that feels right for you. If you're feeling behind, uncertain, or simply craving a slower, more intentional reset, this episode is your reminder that there's no wrong timeline—just a meaningful place to begin.   Follow me on Instagram Shop by Gift Guides!

  5. The toxin talk we should be having and an approach to low-tox beyond your IG feed with Lara Adler

    The toxin talk we should be having and an approach to low-tox beyond your IG feed with Lara Adler

    Welcome back to the show. Today, we're diving into a topic that has become increasingly noisy online: environmental chemicals, toxicity, and what it truly means to support our long-term health. To help ground this conversation in evidence and context rather than fear and marketing, I'm joined by Lara Adler, an environmental health educator and advocate who has spent the last 14 years deep in the research behind environmental exposures and public health. In this episode, we unpack the widening gap between individualized "wellness culture" and the larger systemic issues — like air and water quality — that have the biggest impact on communities across the country. We discuss why certain health narratives online have "lost the plot," how privilege shapes access to wellness solutions, and what practical, meaningful actions each of us can take at home without falling into anxiety or perfectionism. This conversation brings nuance back into a space that desperately needs it — and I think you'll leave feeling informed, empowered, and focused on what truly matters.

    Staying healthy, happy and sane this holiday season + giving the best gifts

    In this pre-Thanksgiving episode, I'm sharing the habits, mindset shifts, and grounding practices that help me not just survive the holidays—but actually enjoy them. This time of year can feel magical and stressful all at once, so I'm walking you through the tools I use to stay calm, present, and connected, even when life feels chaotic. I'm also diving into intentional gifting: how I'm approaching Black Friday with more mindfulness, how I choose meaningful gifts without getting swept into the overwhelm, and the little luxuries, hostess gifts, men's gifts, and friend-gifts I'm loving this season. I'm also sharing the charities closest to my heart and how I'm thinking about giving beyond my own circle this year. Whether you're hosting, traveling, cooking, or curled up on the couch, I hope this episode helps you feel grounded, supported, and inspired as we head into the holiday marathon together.   Connect with me:  Connect with me on Instagram  Shop by Gift Guides!

  7. Unlocking your strengths, aligning your career with your purpose, and finding your flow with Tianna Soto

    Unlocking your strengths, aligning your career with your purpose, and finding your flow with Tianna Soto

    If you've ever felt burnt out, confused about your next step, or pressure to be "everything to everyone," this episode will feel like a breath of fresh air. In this conversation, I sat down with Tianna Soto. Tianna is a keynote speaker and mental health educator known for making wellness feel human, hopeful, and actionable. With a Master's in psychology from Columbia, experience as a Women's Health journalist, and certifications in yoga, reiki, and somatic anxiety coaching, she bridges science and soul to help people manage stress and rebuild resilience. During our conversation we explore what it really means to live in alignment with your strengths, navigate burnout with compassion, and allow your life path to unfold in nonlinear and unexpected ways. We talk about the power of positive psychology, how to shift out of "fixing" yourself and into understanding yourself, and why embracing your multi-passionate nature might be the exact thing that unlocks more joy, confidence, and clarity. Tianna also opens up about her winding career path — from psychology to media to becoming a full-time speaker — and how following sparks of curiosity (even when they didn't make logical sense at the time) led her exactly where she's meant to be. What We Talk About How positive psychology differs from toxic positivity Why focusing on strengths builds confidence and resilience Navigating a nonlinear career path with trust instead of fear The mindset shift from FOMO → JOMO (joy of missing out) Stress cycles, burnout, and how the body signals overwhelm The vagus nerve connection and what to know about stress physiology How to evaluate your current "season" of life — lifestyle, energy, values What it really means to live well (hint: it's simpler than you think) Connect with Tianna: Visit Tianna website Follow Tianna on Instagram   Connect with me: Connect with me on Instagram  ShopMy - What I'm Loving Lately   Email: Hailey@hailey-miller.com
