EP 350: Am I Taking the Right Prenatal Vitamin? with Ryan Woodbury14 Oct 202401:07:44

Have you ever wondered what to look for in a prenatal?  Ryan Woodbury is the cofounder of Needed, an amazing company that is changing the prenatal game.  She answers all of your questions this episode about what to look for in a prenatal, what to avoid, and what to add in supplementation. 
Through navigating her fertility and nutrition journey, she realized most prenatal nutrition information and products fall far short of empowering real nourishment for mamas-to-be. Needed empowers women to meet their biochemical nutritional needs, and to find nourishment beyond nutrition through better products, better identification of nutrition needs, education and community to support nourishment beyond nutritional needs alone.

EP 347: Combatting Reproductive Anxiety & Optimizing Pre-Pregnancy Health w/ Alexandria DeVito23 Sep 202401:02:10

Not only is getting pregnant and having healthy children more
difficult than it was for our parents' generation, reproductive
anxiety is also on the rise. 

Alexandria's approach to pre-pregnancy wellness is revolutionary. She
suggests preparing for pregnancy with the same level of dedication and
planning as one would for a wedding.

Her book emphasizes that the steps taken to prepare the body and mind
before conceiving can have a profound impact not only on fertility,
but also on the lifelong health of the child. "9 Months Is Not Enough"
serves as a comprehensive guide for individuals at any stage of their
journey to parenthood, offering practical advice and empowering
insights.

In addition to writing the ultimate pre-pregnancy checklist,
Alexandria is a functional nutritionist who specializes in fertility
and preconception health. She is the founder and CEO of Poplin, the
first pre-pregnancy wellness company, and holds an MBA from Harvard
Business School, a master's degree in nutrition, and has had extensive
training as a doula, yoga teacher and personal trainer.

EP 324: Lawsuits and Childbirth with Attorney, Gina Mundy10 Jun 202400:48:53

Gina Mundy is an attorney specializing in childbirth cases. For over 20 years, her focus has been investigating and analyzing mistakes that arise during labor and delivery. She has spent
countless hours meticulously scrutinizing childbirth cases, conducting interviews with delivery teams, and thoroughly examining medical records to gain an in-depth understanding of every decision made during labor and delivery. Throughout her career Gina has traveled nationwide, engaging with healthcare professionals such as doctors, nurses, and midwives to explore all aspects of labor and delivery. These interactions have provided her with invaluable insights, enabling her to appreciate the diverse perspectives prevalent in different regions of the country.

In June 2023, Gina's book "A Parent's Guide to a Safer Childbirth" was published. The book helps parents to avoid the mistakes during childbirth and have a healthy baby. Instead of getting involved after a mistake was made, Gina is getting involved before childbirth to help prevent the
mistakes.

EP 316: Reducing Your Chances of Having a Cesarean Birth with Elizabeth Joy15 Apr 202400:30:44

In this episode, Elizabeth is talking all about what 1 hospital did to take their cesarean rate from 28.9% to 12.2% in 12 months. It is important to shed light on this since our cesarean rate is much higher than what the WHO calls for. Cesareans are necessary about 10-15% of the time in the United States, yet they are happening over 33% of the time. This means that about two-thirds of the cesareans taking place are preventable.
