Infertility impacts 1 in 6 couples worldwide. Whether you're in fertility medicine or not, odds are you've worked with or know someone on this frustrating, exhausting journey. But what if there was a way to help patients navigate infertility with more clarity, support, and, yes, even hope? In this episode, we’re exploring how a unified, whole-health approach can make a real difference.

Join Colleen and fertility PA, Jessica Boone to learn a framework that’s straightforward but powerful, designed to address both partners’ health and focus on more than just the traditional medical checklist. We’ll dive into four foundational pillars to optimize fertility—nutrition, elimination, toxins, and sleep—plus real-life strategies you can use with your patients right away.

In this episode we cover:

• The 4 Pillars of a Unified Fertility Plan: The impact of nutrition, elimination, toxin reduction, and better sleep and actionable tips for each area.
• Fertility Workup 101: What a complete fertility workup is and why it should include both partners
• Supporting Patients Through Tough Emotions: How to guide patients through the frustration, sadness, and confusion that often comes with infertility

Whether you're guiding patients or just want to learn more about this important issue, this episode is packed with insights to empower you as a provider.
