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.

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.
