The new office is officially open! It’s not totally finished yet, but it already feels so full of love and new energy. I’ve been waiting to share this episode with you because it’s all about one of my favorite healing practices ever: EFT Tapping, also called the Emotional Freedom Technique.

If you’ve been feeling stuck in your fertility journey — like you’re doing everything right but still not seeing progress — this tool might be a piece that’s missing. EFT is a gentle, hands-on practice that helps calm your nervous system, regulate emotions, and release the stress that can silently affect your hormones, energy, and reproductive health.

I’ve used EFT for years in my own life and with patients, and I’ve seen how it helps women move from emotional exhaustion to true peace and clarity. Today, I’m sharing not just the “how,” but the “why” behind this incredible tool — and how you can start using it right now.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

✨Understanding EFT Tapping: Learn what EFT really is, how it works through acupressure points, and why it’s such a simple yet profound technique for emotional and physical healing.

✨From Pain to Peace — My Story: I share how EFT became part of my own healing after dealing with chronic pain and anxiety — and why it’s still my go-to tool for daily regulation and stress relief.

✨Science-Backed Healing: EFT isn’t just emotional work — studies show it helps calm the amygdala, activate the prefrontal cortex, and support long-term resilience and balance in the body.

✨The 30-Day EFT Challenge: I’m hosting a free tapping challenge to help you explore this tool in real life — to release stress, find calm, and reconnect with yourself during your fertility journey.

Our emotions matter — not just in how we feel day to day, but in how our bodies function, heal, and create life. EFT Tapping is a reminder that emotional healing is physical healing too. I hope this episode inspires you to start tapping, feeling, and releasing what no longer serves you.

Welcome back to The Brilliant Fertility Podcast! It’s been a minute, and wow—life has been a lot lately. Between finishing our new building, trips, and my kids’ soccer schedule, my nervous system has been flooded. And that’s exactly what inspired this episode: exploring how the nervous system directly affects ovarian health and fertility.

In this episode, I dive into a brand-new study from UCSF published in Science, revealing how the nervous system communicates with the ovaries—and what that means for stress, ovulation, and egg quality. You’ll learn how your emotional and physical wellbeing truly shapes your fertility potential.

5 Tools to Regulate Your Nervous System

Study Summary

Science Study

Journal Prompts:

1. What are 3 things you are grateful for today and why?
2. What is your current relationship to stress? How are you aware of stress in your mind and body?
3. What resources, people, or places feel most supportive to you? What does that support look like and feel like?

Ready to go deeper? I’d love to support you. Book your discovery call with me HERE.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

✨ Groundbreaking Study on the Nervous System–Ovary Connection: Discover how researchers identified glial cells and sympathetic nerve endings inside the ovary, showing a direct link between stress and ovarian function.

✨ Why Stress Impacts Ovulation: Learn how chronic stress hormones and “fight-or-flight” responses can suppress ovulation, alter egg maturation, and affect fertility outcomes.

✨ Understanding Sympathetic vs. Parasympathetic Balance: I break down how your body shifts between “fight or flight” and “rest, digest, and heal”—and why the latter is where conception thrives.

✨ Real-Life Nervous System Tools for Fertility Support: I share my favorite nervous system regulation practices—like journaling, tapping (EFT), and somatic awareness—to calm your body and support hormonal balance.

✨ Why Emotional Safety Matters in Fertility: We talk about how trauma, perfectionism, and people-pleasing can keep your body stuck in stress mode, and how creating a sense of safety can unlock your fertility flow.

This episode is a beautiful reminder that fertility is not just about hormones—it’s about the whole body, mind, and nervous system working in harmony.

In this episode, I’m diving into a controversy that’s been showing up everywhere lately- Restorative Reproductive Medicine (RRM) vs. IVF.

If you’ve been scrolling through your social media feed and noticed some heated debates on these two approaches, you’re not alone. It can feel confusing and overwhelming to sort through the noise, especially when what you want most is a clear path forward in your fertility journey.

So, what exactly is restorative reproductive medicine? How does it differ from IVF? And most importantly, what does this mean for you as you make decisions about your own body and family-building journey? My goal in this episode is to unpack the controversy, highlight the strengths of both approaches, and bring you back to what really matters: your empowerment, your options, and your ability to choose what feels best for you.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

🌿 What is Restorative Reproductive Medicine (RRM)?: A look at how RRM identifies and treats underlying health conditions to restore fertility.

💡 The truth about IVF as a tool, not an ideology: Why IVF is a scientific miracle for many, and where it shines as the best option.

⚖️ Finding the middle ground: Why demonizing one approach over the other does a disservice to hopeful parents.

🧩 The importance of individualized fertility care: From nutrition and hormones to autoimmune conditions, there’s no one size fits all that works for everyone.

❤️ Your choices matter most: Why empowerment, compassion, and personal alignment are at the heart of successful fertility journeys.

At the end of the day, both RRM and IVF can be powerful tools. My mission is to give you clear information, grounded strategies, and the encouragement to choose what feels best for your unique path. Whether your journey includes natural fertility support, restorative medicine, IVF, or a combination of approaches, there’s room for all of it.

Sending you so much love as you navigate your journey.

I honestly never thought I’d record a fertility podcast episode about a Netflix movie called K-Pop Demon Hunters—but here we are. This story surprised me in so many ways.

In today’s episode, I’m sharing how this film unexpectedly ties into the fertility journey. Because whether you’re trying to conceive, breaking free from generational trauma, or simply longing to feel more like yourself, the deeper lessons of this story can help us all remember what it means to stand in our truth.

Last week, I needed an escape. After months of uncertainty about our build and feeling overwhelmed, I took myself on a solo date to the forest. And it was magical.

What if slowing down, stepping outside, and immersing yourself in nature could boost your fertility? What if time among trees could lower stress, regulate your nervous system, balance hormones, and improve your chances of conceiving? In this episode of The Brilliant Fertility Podcast, I dive into the practice of forest bathing and the ways it can support fertility, health, and well-being.

Forest bathing, or Shinrin Yoku in Japan, is about tuning into your senses and connecting with green spaces. It’s not hiking or exercise—it’s pausing, breathing, and letting nature restore your body, mind, and spirit. Research shows forest bathing reduces stress and may support fertility by improving hormone function, immune balance, and pregnancy outcomes.

What was one of the stressors that drove me to the forest? Money. We don’t know our final build costs/mortgage yet, which feels soooo uncomfortable for a planner like me. When my biz mentor James Wedmore announced a 30-day money mindset challenge, I knew I had to join. If money stresses you out too, join us! (He’s offering a results guarantee if you do the work.)

Mind Your Money 30 Day Challenge

Forest Bathing Resources

• Health Promotion and Disease Prevention
• Stanford's Longevity Center
• 20-5-3 Rule

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

🌳 What forest bathing really means — how it engages your senses, creates mindfulness, and restores balance.

🌱 The link between stress and fertility — why lowering cortisol helps conception.

🌼 Immune system & fertility connection — and how tree compounds may play a role.

🌿 Practical, everyday ways to try it — even with walks or houseplants.

💑 Couples benefits — how nature time improves sperm quality, lowers stress together, and strengthens connection.

This is your invitation to create more space, calm, and connection—because your fertility journey doesn’t have to feel like a hustle. Whether it’s a walk in the park, a trip to the mountains, or placing your hands on a tree, forest bathing is a nurturing practice that supports both your nervous system and reproductive health.

This week on The Brilliant Fertility Podcast, I’m diving into what it means to expand your emotional capacity and stay grounded in hope during overwhelming times. Trying to conceive can already feel like a rollercoaster—and when you add in the heaviness of world events, political stress, and daily challenges, it can leave you feeling exhausted, fearful, and emotionally drained. But the truth is, emotional resilience is a key part of preparing your body, mind, and heart for pregnancy.

In this episode, I share my own reflections as a mother, doctor, and fertility advocate on how we can continue to show up for ourselves and the next generation—even when the world feels upside down. Together, we’ll explore how to honor your feelings without letting them consume you, and how to use simple practices to restore balance, safety, and hope.
