    When S****y Things Happen: 4 questions to ask yourself so you can move through it

    During the fertility journey there are a lot things that happen that would definitely fall into the s****y category. And often we are left with our own devices to figure out how to deal with them, move through them, and heal. This episode I resurrect an old blog post that I originally wrote about fertility and overcoming some of the challenges we meet with yoga, and then when I published it, it was right after Roe V Wade was overturned. And now after an election that puts the reproductive and rights and freedom in jeopardy for so many people, I thought it about time I spoke about this. From the yogic lens we ask these questions: 1. What am I consuming? 2. Am I using discernment? 3. Which direction is my energy flowing? 4. Am I in the flow of nature? I also dive a little bit into the physical body how we can use movement to help process mental and emotional energy.

  2. Men in the mix: the male perspective of infertility

    Men in the mix: the male perspective of infertility

    I have always wanted to do a podcast episode that would bring to you the male perspective of infertility - and finally, I have that episode for you. It was honestly quite hard to find a man who was willing to openly speak about their experiences. My guest today, Andy Lamb, is amazing, not just because he is so open to talk about his experiences, but he also provides support to other men who are dealing with fertility issues. Yes - a fertility support group for men. I’ll put the link in the show notes of course if you’d like to send someone his way! Andy Lamb is a 45 years old male and long-time resident of Easton, MA with his wife Kelly and his 3 girls that he adopted through foster care.  His fertility journey started in 2009 when he was diagnosed with azoospermia, zero sperm, which was followed up with 2 surgeries that were unsuccessful.  Together, they got through the toughest part of dealing with the emotional toll and now we have a wonderful, multicultural family. Andy and Kelly founded a non-profit called Raising Multicultural Kids that brings a diverse curriculum into classrooms K-12 as well as trainings for teachers and community events.  Andy is a Senior Director of Sales and Partnerships for MaxCyte, a Cell and Gene Therapy Engineering Platform company. I hope you love this episode and that it brings insight into some of the things your male partners might be going through and not expressing. We covered many burning questions in this episode: Andy shares his fertility experiences of being diagnosed with azoospermia (zero sperm) The emotional toll of infertility Adoption as a path forward Navigating multicultural parenting Support systems and groups for men dealing with infertility Masculine and feminine energy in fertility Navigating emotional challenges Setting boundaries for mental wellbeing Men’s perspective of infertility Supporting your partner through infertility Men's group link: Support Groups - AllPaths Family Building Raising Multi Cultural Kids: https://raisingmulticulturalkids.com/ Check out what⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠fertility yoga programs⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ are available at this time!

  3. Energetic Fertility: Ditching perfectionism and deep healing with Cara Lennan

    Energetic Fertility: Ditching perfectionism and deep healing with Cara Lennan

    Have you ever been curious about how energy affects your fertility - or what we would call - Energetic Fertility? In that the vibrations that we're putting out in the world attract back the same vibration? The following conversation I had is all about that energy. And we talk deeply about perfectionism and people pleasing and how these affect fertility. We dig a little deeper into understanding where these tendencies come from and how powerful it can be to LET GO and release this mindset so we can do some deep healing. My guest today is Cara Lennan, a fertility energetics coach and mother of 2 boys. She was told she would never conceive with her own eggs and through energy work, nervous system reprogramming and feminine embodiment she conceived against all odds, at 35 and 37. Cara is now a fertility coach and supports women in optimizing their fertility by uncovering, dissolving and healing the blocks that stand between them and their baby. We dove into a lot of juicy topics on this one: Cara’s fertility story from being told donor eggs were her only option, to conceiving without intervention The importance of energy in fertility Going inward and connecting with the body The role of perfectionism Healing and Nervous System Regulation Fertility empowerment: Inner work and resources I loved the conversation Cara and I had because these are topics that people do not talk about when it comes to fertility - and we should be!  www.caralennan.com  IG: @beingfertile_withcara   Find out more about Cara's signature online program, Fertile Frequency: https://www.caralennan.com/fertile-frequency/ Free "Heal the Hustle" Masterclass: https://dashboard.mailerlite.com/forms/148319/122714652917368198/share    Check out what ⁠⁠⁠⁠fertility yoga programs⁠⁠⁠⁠ are available at this time!

    Finding Your People On Your Fertility Path with Kate Leblanc

    Navigating fertility struggles can feel like you are so alone. And we begin to feel isolated as we decline offers to baby showers and gatherings to avoid having to see happy babies and pregnant bellies. Finding the right community or support network while you're trying to conceive is so so important. So you can say all the things you're thinking and people will UNDERSTAND not judge. Today I spoke with Kate Leblanc, the Executive Director of AllPaths Family Building - formerly Resolve New England. We talked about so much in the episode but really the most important conclusion we came to - was FIND YOUR PEOPLE! And - Kate gives us some good news with advocacy and new bills that are being passed to protect reproductive freedoms and access to fertility care.

    5 Simple & Inexpensive Ways to Optimize Your Fertility

    We tend to overcomplicate everything as humans - and fertility is not an exception. Even though conception and pregnancy and birth is an intricate dance, the ways that we can support these processes are not complicated. We break down the process into tiny little boxes, and then try and control as much as can - forgetting that the functioning of a healthy and fertile body is not in the minutia - it's in the macro. The big things that we can control. In this episode we cover: How fire can transform or destroy How and why we overcomplicate fertility 5 simple and inexpensive things you can do now this is for everyone, for IVF or not Why starting new habits and ditching old habits is so hard 40 Days to Fertile Freedom Program for supported change Podcast: Patriarchy, People pleasing, and perfectionism Blog: Patriarchy, People Pleasing, and Perfectionism Fringe Fertility is brought to you by⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠Kerry Hinds ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠and⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠Fertile Body Yoga⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ – a virtual holistic wellness hub for those going through fertility.
