Episode 072: 3 Things NOT To Do When TTC in 2026

Welcome back to the Brilliant Fertility Podcast! As we step into 2026, there’s something refreshing about a new year—it’s a chance to hit the reset button, let go of what didn’t serve us, and approach our fertility journey with fresh hope and clarity. In this episode, I’m diving into the three things you should NOT do if you’re trying to conceive this year. I know the start of a new year can feel like everyone else has it all figured out, especially with the flood of advice on social media. That’s why I want to help you cut through the noise, avoid common pitfalls, and focus on strategies that actually work—without overwhelm or stress.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

✨The problem with “detoxes”: Trendy detox teas and kits aren’t backed by research and can harm your body. I’ll explain safer, fertility-supportive alternatives.

✨Why long checklists can backfire: Overloading on New Year’s resolutions can create stress. Learn to listen to your body and trust your intuition.

✨How stress affects fertility: Obsession and pressure can sabotage conception. Discover ways to feel safe and calm in your body.

✨The power of sustainable habits: Small, consistent lifestyle and nutrition changes matter more than quick fixes.
