Podcast Overview

An award winning, expert-led fertility podcast for anyone who is trying to conceive and tired of being told to “just relax.” Each week, we dive into the science, the stories and the real-life experiences behind infertility. We talk to leading fertility consultants, embryologists, nutritionists, psychologists and researchers — alongside women and couples who are living this journey every single day. But this is more than a podcast. This is also a community by the same name —a supportive space to access education, evidence-based information and connection - all without the "just relax" BS.
