What if one of the the missing pieces in your fertility journey isn’t another item "to-do" but a deeper understanding of your own body?

If you’re doing all the things—tracking, testing, supplementing, pushing through IVF cycles—yet still feeling disconnected, inflamed, anxious, or exhausted… you might be overlooking the foundation: how your body digests, absorbs, and feels safe enough to create life.

Because fertility isn’t just numbers and lab results. It’s vitality.

In this powerful conversation with Ayurvedic practitioner Madison, we demystify Ayurveda—the 5,000-year-old “science of life”—and explore how reconnecting to your body’s natural rhythms can transform not just your fertility, but your entire relationship with yourself.

Ayurveda teaches that we are made of the same elements as nature—earth, water, fire, air, and space—and that true balance comes from honoring your unique self. When digestion is strong, your nervous system feels safe, and your body is nourished at a cellular level, reproductive health becomes supported naturally.

We dive into concepts like prana (life force), why reproductive tissue is the last tissue to be nourished, and why it’s not just what you eat—but how you digest—that matters most.

If you’ve been operating in survival mode, this episode will gently invite you back into alignment.

BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL DISCOVER:

• What Ayurveda really is—and why it’s called the “knowledge of life”
• How your unique dosha (Vata, Pitta, or Kapha) impacts your hormones and fertility
• Why digestion is the foundation of egg, sperm, and uterine health
• How increasing prana (life force) can support conscious conception and preconception preparation

Fertility begins with vitality—and when you learn to nourish your body in alignment with its nature, you don’t just prepare for pregnancy… you come back to life yourself.

Madison's Bio: Madison is an Ayurvedic Doctor, Functional Hormone Specialist, and Fertility Educator, as well as a longtime teacher of yoga and meditation. She helps women and couples prepare for pregnancy by balancing hormones, optimizing digestion, and creating the physical, emotional, and energetic conditions for new life to thrive.

What does it really take to build a family when the path isn’t traditional—and no one gives you a roadmap?

In this conversation you'll get to meet my friend who I recently reunited with at a high school reunion. Toby shares about the personal journey he and his husband took to become parents.

If you’ve ever assumed that becoming a parent is just a series of medical steps and legal checkboxes, you might be overlooking the emotional weight, trust, and intentionality required—especially for same-sex couples navigating IVF and surrogacy.

In this episode, we unpack the parts people don’t always talk about: the vulnerability of choosing an egg donor, the leap of faith in finding a surrogate, and the emotional complexity that unfolds long after the paperwork is signed.

My long time friend, Toby shares how leaning into support, honesty, and empathy became the real foundation of parenthood—and how that journey reshaped not just his family, but the way he shows up for his patients. Dr. Toby is a medical doctor and Adjunct Clinical Instructor at Stanford Children’s Health in California.

BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL DISCOVER:

· What the IVF and surrogacy process actually looks like behind the scenes

· How intentional decision-making plays a role in building a family through nontraditional paths

· The emotional and legal challenges same-sex couples face—and how to navigate them

· How becoming a parent transformed Toby’s perspective on empathy, genetics, and patient care

This is a heartfelt conversation about love, trust, and redefining what it means to create a family—on your own terms.

What if your fertility journey wasn’t asking you to try harder—but to get more aligned?

In this powerful conversation, Human Design expert Anna Nichols shares how understanding your unique energetic blueprint can support your fertility path, regulate your nervous system, and help you stop fighting your body—and start trusting it.

Anna is a Human Design expert, master business strategist, author, and podcast host who helps us explore how Human Design can support you on your fertility path —emotionally, energetically, and spiritually.

Together, Lisa and Anna draw powerful parallels between building an aligned business and navigating fertility with more trust, ease, and self-compassion. Anna vulnerably opens up about her own fertility journey, including multiple miscarriages, and the full-circle healing she experienced years later—revealing how moments that once felt like setbacks were actually guiding her toward deeper alignment.

Key Takeaways:

• What Human Design is and how it helps you understand your unique energetic blueprint
• Why alignment (not force or hustle) matters on your fertility path
• The five Human Design energy types—and how each experiences stress, rest, and decision-making
• How frustration, anger, bitterness, or disappointment can be signals that something is out of alignment
• The role of environment in supporting your nervous system, energy, and fertility
• Why you’re not meant to do everything on your own—and how receiving support is part of your design
• Anna’s personal fertility story, including miscarriage, healing, and divine timing
• How Human Design can help you release self-blame and reconnect with trust in your body
