• What is the #1 Emotional Blockage in Infertility with Carolina Sotomayor
    Jul 16 2024

    In episode #319 of The Hormone Puzzle Podcast, our guest Carolina Sotomayor, talks about What is the #1 Emotional Blockage in Infertility.

    More about Carolina:

    Carolina helps women conceive their babies with Reiki. She is a Reiki Womb Healer, host of the Make A Baby Podcast, and founder of the Make A Baby Membership & Headquarters.

    As a newlywed struggling with infertility, she received advice from doctors to "relax," despite everything appearing fine. Devastated each month, a turning point came when her therapist and a psychic recommended Reiki to open her chakras. After one Reiki session, the next month brought a positive pregnancy test for her son.

    Now she serves women who want to heal & conceive using Reiki. She believes the more we can heal upfront, the easier fertility, pregnancy, birth and postpartum will be. She believes healing is not a one time event and that is why she has created the Reiki Baby Movement on Tik Tok and her podcast to end gatekeeping of healing and to conceive with Reiki.

  • PCOS and Hirsutism with Meredith Harris
    Jul 9 2024

    In episode #318 of The Hormone Puzzle Podcast, our guest Meredith Harris, talks about PCOS and Hirsutism.

    More about Meredith:

    Meredith was diagnosed with PCOS and was told she might never get pregnant without strict adherence to medical advice. Despite struggling with symptoms like irregular periods, weight gain, and being pre-diabetic, conventional treatments brought no relief. However, after delivering a healthy baby girl in 2020, she embarked on personal research, learning that PCOS isn't an end-all. Empowered, she made lifestyle changes that drastically improved her symptoms. This transformation inspired her to launch Redefining PCOS, a platform to help women see PCOS as an opportunity to become Powerful, Confident, Optimistic, and Strong through simple, sustainable lifestyle adjustments.

    Alex has been married to his high school sweetheart Laurin for 12 years and together for 19.

After lots of doctors appointments, grieving, and therapy, they decided to move forward using donor sperm. They now have an almost 4 year old daughter named Delaney who is the light of their lives. They have an Instagram profile called Pursuing Fatherhood where they share their story and try to support others going through something similar, with the goal of raising awareness for these issues and letting others know they're not alone.
