I’m so excited to share this beautiful conversation with Rebekah Kiger—a Trauma-Informed Master Mindset & Money Coach who helps women heal their relationship with money so they can create wealth with ease instead of burnout. Rebekah’s story is incredibly inspiring: from growing up below the poverty line and becoming a young mom at just 18, to transforming her life, building multiple six-figure businesses, and retiring from her corporate job at only 32. Today, she guides women to rewrite their money stories and step into true financial freedom.

In this episode, we dive into the energetics of money and how it connects to our nervous system, our sense of safety, and our ability to receive. Rebekah shares her wisdom on how past trauma can shape the way we interact with money and why healing these patterns is the key to stepping into abundance with more flow and less stress.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

✨ How Rebekah shifted her money story from survival to financial freedom

✨ The powerful link between trauma, the nervous system, and your money patterns

✨ Why traditional “hustle harder” approaches to wealth can keep you stuck in burnout

✨ How to reframe your beliefs around money so that it feels safe, supportive, and expansive

✨ Practical tools and mindset shifts you can use to start creating a healthier relationship with money today

Rebekah brings so much compassion, honesty, and empowerment to this conversation. If you’ve ever felt like money is stressful, overwhelming, or just out of reach, this episode will give you hope, clarity, and a whole new way to look at what’s possible. 💛

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. At first glance, it looks like lighthearted pop culture fun, but underneath the catchy songs and animated action is a powerful message about authenticity, voice, and healing old patterns.

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.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

✨ Authenticity as the highest frequency: why showing up as your true self raises your vibration and supports healing on the fertility journey.

✨Breaking generational patterns: how the characters’ struggles mirror the subconscious beliefs and wounds many of us inherit and carry.

✨Facing what we’ve denied: the reminder that we can’t heal or shift until we stop resisting and start accepting what is.

✨The power of voice: how losing and reclaiming one’s voice in the movie mirrors the way our subconscious masks show up in real life.

✨Collective healing: why coming together in truth and authenticity awakens us and creates ripple effects in the world.

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.)

• 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.

Do you ever feel like no matter how hard you try, your healthy habits just won’t stick? In this episode, I continue our conversation on habits—why some patterns keep draining your energy and how to finally create small, nourishing changes that truly support fertility.

This isn’t about perfection. It’s about compassion, safety, and building a strong foundation for your body and mind.

Ready to go deeper? I’d love to support you. Book your discovery call with me here: https://l.bttr.to/MCcLj

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

💭 The biggest barriers to new habits: from all-or-nothing thinking to guilt loops, and why it’s not about willpower.

🪷 Simple fertility-supporting practices: like journaling, gentle yoga, protein-rich meals, and breathwork to nourish energy.

🫶 The role of emotional safety: why nervous system regulation is key to making habits last.

💞 Connection as a habit: how supportive relationships help you feel safe, seen, and less alone.

🌟 Celebrating small wins: why every tiny step counts and how returning to the habit is the practice.

This episode is a gentle reminder: habits are here to support you, not to overwhelm you. By starting small, stacking wisely, and celebrating along the way, you’ll strengthen your energy and create the foundation your fertility deserves.

Pick one tiny, compassionate habit this week—and let me know what it is! I’d love to celebrate it with you.

Ever felt like your energy just bottomed out with no warning? In this episode, I share a very real crash that took me by surprise — right in the middle of Costco. What looked like a normal day turned into an eye-opener about how easily we can slip into habits that deplete us.

And when your body is constantly running on low, your fertility feels it too. Hormones get disrupted, cycles shift, and your body has to prioritize things differently. I’m pulling back the curtain on my own little incident to help you catch the patterns before they snowball into something bigger.

✨ Ready to lay a stronger foundation for your fertility journey? These mini programs are a beautiful place to begin:

📘 Cycle Charting to Conceive — Understand your cycle like never before and pinpoint your fertile window.

📝 ReWrite Your Story — Release fear and frustration and reconnect with hope, clarity, and empowerment.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

🥣 Why “healthy” habits can still backfire: From protein-poor smoothies to skipped lunches — how even small things add up and cause hormonal chaos over time.

⚡ What your energy dips are really telling you: Learn how your body uses fatigue to get your attention — especially when you’re not getting the nutrition or rest you need.

🔥 The stress-hormone-fertility triangle: How chronic stress, poor fueling, and lack of recovery can disrupt ovulation, shorten your luteal phase, and increase PMS.

☕ The sneaky impact of caffeine: Even your favorite iced coffee can contribute to the energy rollercoaster — especially when your body is already overwhelmed.

🧬 The deeper fertility connection: We break down how energy, mitochondria, and hormone balance all link to egg quality and cycle health.

This episode is a gentle but powerful reminder: before supplements or advanced fertility treatments, your day-to-day energy matters most. Part 2 will dive even deeper into how to create habits that are actually sustainable — and designed to support your fertility, not sabotage it.

You deserve to feel nourished, grounded, and full of energy — so take a listen and see where you can bring more awareness to your habits & energy.
