In this intimate episode, I share the shocking moment I was told I'd likely never be able to have a baby, which marked the beginning of my transformative journey towards becoming a mother.

Faced with a diagnosis of infertility, my partner and I chose not to accept this as our reality. Using my background in natural therapies and a refusal to give into a ‘diagnosis’, I embarked on a holistic mind-body-spirit journey to prove the medical prognosis wrong.

From specific dietary changes, supplements, and lifestyle adjustments to powerful subconscious reprogramming, I explored every avenue to enhance my fertility naturally.

I detail the specific strategies, including the exact supplements I took to boost reproductive health. I also share how I used sacred plant medicines and energy healing to help me connect with my body on a deeper level.

Despite all the odds stacked against us, my partner and I experienced the joy of discovering we were pregnant, which changed our lives forever.
