The Fertility Crisis No One Talks About – What You NEED to Know! | WeNatal
Mar 25, 2025•59 min
Episode description
239: In this episode, I sit down with the founders of WeNatal to talk all about fertility and the nutrients our bodies need for a healthy pregnancy. As many of you know, I’ve already declared 2025 my year of fertility, and I’m on a mission to learn everything I can to prepare for pregnancy.
We talk about fertility myths, so-called "geriatric pregnancies," and the biggest factors affecting conception today. Both founders have experienced miscarriages, which led them to create a prenatal that truly supports the body’s needs. If you’re hoping to get pregnant this year or next, this episode is one you won’t want to miss.
Topics Discussed:
What nutrients are essential for a healthy pregnancy?
How do stress and sleep impact fertility?
What are the biggest misconceptions about "geriatric pregnancies"?
How can men improve their fertility?
What lifestyle changes support conception and a healthy baby?
