This is not your regular episode! If you caught our last one, Episode 118, you're already in the know - it marked the end of our wild ride through Season 4 of  Fertility Friendly Food, the Podcast.

In this episode, we're taking a nostalgic trip down memory lane. I'll spill the beans on why we kicked off this podcast in 2020, how it's grown and changed, and, of course, where we're headed to from here.

A huge thank you to our listeners - one-time-only listeners, our binge listeners and the loyal devotees, you've made this podcast what it is today - thank you so much for supporting it and us too!

Can you believe it's almost the silly season already?

Now, over here at The Dietologist, we get it. The holidays can stir up a whirlwind of emotions, especially when those well-meaning friends and family members just can't resist asking the age-old question: "When are you having a baby?" Tis also the season when our DMs start blowing up with messages like,  "Help! Another year's gone by, and my baby plans are still MIA!"

The holidays are awesome, no doubt about it. There's more freedom, time to relax, parties galore, mouthwatering dishes, and, of course, drinks!

But hold onto your Santa hats because here's the holiday plot twist: If your goal is to ring in the new year with fertile intentions, it's time for you and your partner to be on top of your diet and lifestyle game.

So, while we're all about embracing the holiday spirit, let's not forget to be a bit mindful about what's going into our bellies. Tune in to this episode for some nifty tips on how to juggle the holiday festivities while keeping your baby-making plans in mind.

In your 40s, conceiving can be undeniably more challenging, but seeking early support is key. Whilst it isn't impossible, it is important to have healthy expectations and a plan in place!
 
In this episode, I'll talk about modifiable factors when it comes to fertility (because we can't change our age!) and the importance of a support team, including mental health professionals, nutrition experts, and a reliable doctor.
