Episode Summary

If you're navigating a health crisis and a family-building journey at the same time, this episode is for you. I sit down with Anna, founder of Feel Well by Anna, who was diagnosed with a rare cancer in the middle of finding out she was pregnant, and whose fertility journey started with an ectopic pregnancy discovered mid-surgery. We talk through her decision to freeze her eggs before chemotherapy, the mindset work that carried her through years of fear-based decisions, and what finally shifted for her, from nutrient-dense eating to cycle tracking to finding the right partner, on the way to her current, healthy pregnancy.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Fear-driven decisions are rarely clear decisions; pausing even two weeks can bring the perspective needed to choose well
• Tracking fertility signs for years before trying to conceive builds real body literacy, not just the months leading up to it
• Standard progesterone reference ranges are often too low; NAPRO practitioners look for levels above 20, not just above 10
• The right partner matters for fertility in ways that go beyond biology; nervous system safety and regulation play a real role
• Constant testing and monitoring brings some people peace and creates anxiety for others; knowing which one you are matters
• Diet, lifestyle basics, and finding the right partner mattered more to Anna's outcome than any single supplement or protocol
