In today's episode, I feature a private coaching client Jenn, who shares her three-year journey to pregnancy while navigating a PCOS diagnosis. She recounts her frustrating experiences with conventional medicine, which often left her feeling dismissed and hopeless. After taking her health into her own hands and working with Nora, Jenn learned to understand her body, stopped treatments that were masking the root issues, and successfully conceived naturally. Her story is a powerful testament to self-advocacy.

Episode Highlights:

• Meet Jenn, a dedicated teacher whose fertility journey took unexpected turns after coming off birth control.
• What started as a quest to start a family became a battle for answers after a rushed PCOS diagnosis and a series of medical frustrations.
• Determined to take charge of her health, Jenn dives into research, challenges her diagnosis, and begins exploring holistic and alternative care.
• Her search leads her to Nora, whose guidance helps uncover the truth about Jenn's body and a powerful shift in her fertility story.
• From heartbreak to healing, Jenn opens up about loss, resilience, and the life-changing moment she realized her body could do what she once thought it couldn't.
• Now in her third trimester, Jenn shares what pregnancy with PCOS really looks like, and the empowering mindset that's carried her through.
• Her journey is a reminder that reclaiming your health starts with self-advocacy, patience, and trust in your body's wisdom.

Imagine feeling so sick during pregnancy that even water won't stay down, that's Hyperemesis Gravidarum (HG), a severe form of morning sickness that can leave women bedridden and depleted. But what if HG isn't just bad luck or genetics? In today's episode, I sit down with Jes Reynolds, who challenges the common myths surrounding HG and reveals how it often signals deeper physiological imbalances, from nutrient deficiencies to hidden toxicities. Together, we explore how holistic preconception prep can transform the way women experience pregnancy, showing that fertility, morning sickness and HG are reflections of overall health, not isolated conditions.

Episode Highlights:

• What is HG? Hyperemesis Gravidarum and how is it different than regular morning sickness?
• Think HG is purely genetic? Jes challenges that belief, diving into the surprising role of epigenetics and why your genes aren't the full story
• Discover why HG might be more common and more misunderstood than you think
• Jes reveals the subtle health clues that may signal increased HG risk and shares how fertility and pregnancy symptoms mirror our overall health
• What if morning sickness wasn't random, but a message from your body? Learn how deeper imbalances and deficiencies could be at play
• Jes explains how proactive preconception work can create a healthier pregnancy and even influence future generations
