  1. Intersection of Science and Empathy in the Art of Medicine with Reproductive Endocrinologist, Dr. Maria Costantini (Ep. 98)

    Intersection of Science and Empathy in the Art of Medicine with Reproductive Endocrinologist, Dr. Maria Costantini (Ep. 98)

    What if the key to navigating fertility challenges isn’t just in the science — but in the way you’re emotionally supported through it? So many people walk into fertility treatment believing the medical steps are the whole picture… yet feel blindsided when the emotional toll hits just as hard (if not harder). Maybe you’ve felt unheard in appointments, rushed through decisions, or treated like another chart in the queue — and it leaves you questioning your own strength, your hope, and your identity. But what if the missing piece isn’t you… it’s the lack of empathy, space, and genuine human connection in your care? Today’s conversation flips that narrative — and shows you what compassionate, patient-centered fertility medicine can truly look like. BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL DISCOVER: Why empathy isn’t a “soft skill” but a clinical essential in reproductive medicineHow listening, storytelling, and emotional validation transform the patient experienceThe real reasons patients burn out (even with financial coverage) — and how to protect your energyWhat it looks like when science and humanity work together to support your fertility journeyWhether you’re in the thick of treatment or supporting someone who is, this episode is a powerful reminder that you deserve care that sees all of you — your hope, your grief, your resilience, and your story.

  3. [CLIENT SUCCESS] From Cancer to IVF & Motherhood: Carrie’s Story of Resilience, Hope & the Miracle of Her Daughter (Ep. 95)

    10/17/2025

    [CLIENT SUCCESS] From Cancer to IVF & Motherhood: Carrie’s Story of Resilience, Hope & the Miracle of Her Daughter (Ep. 95)

    In this episode I sit down with my former client Carrie whose story embodies what it means to hold onto hope even when life takes an unexpected turn. After six IUIs and one egg retrieval, Carrie was preparing for an embryo transfer when she received a life-changing diagnosis: breast cancer. Her fertility journey came to a sudden halt as she began two years of cancer treatments and surgeries, including 16 rounds of chemotherapy. Through it all, she held tightly to her dream of becoming a mom and seeing her husband become a dad. Once her treatments were complete, Carrie sought a new, more soulful path forward—working with Lisa as her fertility coach and connecting with a hypnotherapist I recommended for additional support. Together, they helped her process the heavy emotions, expand her circle of support, and find gratitude even in the hardest moments. Carrie’s journey reminds us that hope and healing can coexist, and that opening your heart to new forms of support can create space for miracles. After another egg retrieval, she received one precious embryo — the embryo that became her daughter, Ella now 20 months old. This conversation is for anyone walking through fertility challenges, IVF, or life detours that test your strength. Carrie’s story is proof that even when the path feels uncertain, your miracle may already be on its way. In this episode you'll hear: Carrie’s honest and emotional journey through IUIs, IVF, and a cancer diagnosisHow she stayed hopeful during two years of treatment and recoveryThe power of mindset, gratitude, and community supportHow coaching and hypnotherapy helped her reconnect with peace and possibilityThe miracle of her one healthy embryo and the arrival of her daughter, EllaCarrie's message of hope for women still waiting for their own miracleI'm so grateful to Carrie for opening up and sharing her personal journey with you.

  4. [CLIENT SUCCESS] 48 y.o. Path to Success: Embryo Donation. Betsy’s Story (Ep. 94)

    09/25/2025

    [CLIENT SUCCESS] 48 y.o. Path to Success: Embryo Donation. Betsy’s Story (Ep. 94)

    Embryo Donation, Late Motherhood & Finding Peace After IVF — This is a heartfelt conversation with a past client of mine, Betsy.  She shares her personal story about perseverance, choice, and the unexpected routes to parenthood. “Nothing should go untried" - Betsy.  Betsy began her fertility journey in 2016, pursued multiple egg retrievals with no viable embryos, and ultimately discovered embryo donation in her mid-40s. She walks us through how she found a matchmaker, navigated the legal and counseling steps, traveled for transfers, and became a mother as a solo parent at the age of 48. We talk honestly about grief and letting go, what it’s like to be an “older mom,” the practical logistics (lawyers, transfer costs, embryo transport), meeting her embryo donor, and the sense of peace and fierce love she feels now. This episode is for anyone wondering “Is it too late?” or looking for real-world insight into embryo donation as a pathway to parenthood. I'm so grateful to Betsy for sharing her story and personal insights with us. One of them that resonated with me was, "I let go of a lot of things that didn’t really matter — and it helped me get quiet and focus on what I wanted.” — Betsy I'd love to hear your thoughts after listening to this conversation, and if you'd like to connect with Betsy send me a message and I can connect you with her!  CONNECT with Lisa & get IVF COACHING SUPPORT Download IVF Mindset Shift Guide https://ivfmanifestingamiracle.myflodesk.com BOOK a complimentary DISCOVERY CALL BOOK: ‘HOLD ON, BABY!
