Episode 12: Guest Interview with Dr. Michael Jones, NaProTECHNOLOGY OBGYN
We're back with another guest interview! I'm so pleased to be bringing you this episode with Dr. Michael Jones, a NaPro-certified OBGYN. He actually was the doctor I worked with during our infertility journey and he performed the laparoscopy surgery on me. I am forever grateful for his incredible work! He has helped so many women over his career of being a NaPro surgeon.
Enjoy!

Episode 11: What Happens Before and After Endometriosis Surgery
Hey friends! Today I'm telling my detailed story about what happens before and after endometriosis surgery, specifically with a restorative reproductive medicine specialist. I forgot to even say the word in the episode, but it is specifically called a "laparoscopy." (It is minimally invasive.). I also had a hysteroscopy (looking inside the uterus) and selective HSG (looking inside and clearing the Fallopian tubes) during the surgery. If you're getting ready for a laparoscopy or even just thinking of having one, this episode is for you! Feel free to email me down below if you have any questions about the process.

Episode 9: Daisy Carrasquillo's Infertility, Miscarriage, and Miracle Story
We have another wonderful interview this week for Episode 9! My guest is Daisy Carrasquillo and she is sharing her journey with NaProTECHNOLOGY and infertility, miscarriage, and the birth stories of her miracle boys. I’m sure that if you’ve experienced infertility, miscarriage, or both, that you will be able to identify with her story.
Something that we forgot to touch on in the interview is that our connection goes way back! We were actually in the same high school religious education class years ago but never interacted. Then in 2019, after seeing our mutual FertilityCare Practitioner share one of my posts on Instagram, Daisy reached out to me and shared her story. I was so moved by it and her vulnerability, as I had just had surgery for endometriosis/infertility and we had the same NaPro surgeon, Dr. Michael Jones. I absolutely love how God works in these stories that are so painful yet lead to such beauty!
Your host,
Malori Mayor, BSN, RN and infertility warrior

Episode 8: Guest Interview with Dr. Naomi Whittaker - Why Choose NaProTECHNOLOGY?
I'm so pleased to bring you this guest interview episode with Dr. Naomi Whittaker! This episode is all about why one should choose NaProTECHNOLOGY instead of artificial reproductive methods such as IVF. There's a myriad of reasons, including moral and ethical, health, and financial. We mostly discuss the health and medical side of it. I hope this serves as a great jumping off point if you are new to NaPro and the world of restorative reproductive medicine!

Today's episode will be the third (and for now, final) installment of our personal infertility story. If you missed the first two parts, make sure to listen to Episodes #3 and #5 first! Please note the "trigger warning" that I do talk about my eventual positive pregnancy test near the end of the episode.

Customer Reviews
Food for Thought
Malori has a very clear and direct manner of explaining RRM. Her nursing background allows her to have a comprehensive view of the science behind infertility. Yet she is able to breakdown important issues and deliver them to the listener in “bite size pieces” for a better understanding. Albert Einstein said “if you can’t explain it simply, then you don’t understand it well enough” this is something I appreciate in any person in the medical field, and Malori and my NaPro doctor are great at doing this! I wish this podcast was around when I discovered NaPro but I am so happy it is out now for others to enjoy. As a listener it is like you are chit chatting with a friend who is telling you about something they are passionate about. Looking forward to all the guests. Show notes are also very concise and informative.
Wonderful Podcast!
Malori is professional but also adds a personal aspect that is super easy to relate to! So grateful for a podcast that supports women going through infertility but also highlights the ways we get to the root of infertility naturally! Can’t wait for more episodes!
