On today’s episode of the Badass Fertility Podcast we sit down with functional fertility expert and nutritionist, Olivia Mitchell. Olivia brings a wealth of wisdom and critical insights on how to get and stay pregnant even if you've been given an infertility diagnosis.

In fact, she challenges that term arguing it’s medically inaccurate and prefers the term “sub-fertility” because it indicates the truth: your fertility can be improved.

Olivia looks at fertility from a “whole body system” perspective. She teaches her clients how to get into what she calls “welcome baby mode” Olivia does this by looking for the roots causes of sub-fertility of which she says there are three main ones:

• overlooked thyroid issues (even if you’ve had the panel tested),
• nervous system dysregulation,
• gut inflammation.

From there, we dive deep into topics like:

1. Why does the standard approach to fertility fail to help every couple?
2. What's the most powerful thing a TTC couple can do to support fertility?
3. Is TTC for a year before asking for support still good advice?
4. What's the deal with all the supplements out there for fertility?
5. What testing should someone get when starting to search for better answers?

If you’ve been trying all. the. things to get pregnant: done the standard testing, tried the standard approach (clomid, IUI, IVF, etc) and you’re still not pregnant or suffering miscarriages, this show will provide enlightening info, in a non-scary way, for you.

Struggling to conceive is one of the most lonely and isolating experiences women endure.

All of the women I've met on this journey struggle to share about it with most or even all of the close people in their life. In fact, around half of the women I’ve met on this don’t tell their mothers or their mothers-in-law what’s going on. There’s no right or wrong or good or bad there, but the consequence of keeping it to yourself can be high.

But how do you know who to keep in and who to keep out? How can you tell if someone will be trustworthy and not make you feel worse? Harvard researcher and infertility expert Alice Domar has a system called the ECAD that can help. On today’s show we dive into it and look at how it can benefit your journey for the better.
