The Wilde Way: Fertility Unfiltered – Details, episodes & analysis

Share your TTC story ✨

Your period isn’t random.
 Your symptoms aren’t “just how you are”.
 And no, you absolutely do not have to just “deal with” PMS.

In today’s episode, I’m sitting down with Sarah Gale, aka The Hormone Nutritionist, for a super real, super practical chat about what your body is trying to tell you every single month.

We get into spotting, cramps, bloating, acne, cravings, mood swings, PCOS, PMDD, ovulation, progesterone, inflammation, stress… all the things.
 And honestly, once you understand how to read your cycle, everything changes.
 You stop feeling confused or annoyed at your body, and start feeling connected to it.

This is 100 percent an episode you’ll want to save and probably send to every woman you love.

Inside the episode

• Why your symptoms are actually messages, not problems to ignore
 • How to track your cycle without becoming obsessive
 • Why this month’s period was shaped by the last three months
 • What short or long cycles really mean
• Spotting before your period and when to pay attention
• Blood colour and texture decoded (yes, we go there)
• Painful periods and when it might point to endometriosis
• PCOS, blood sugar and insulin resistance
• Why you’re ravenous in the luteal phase
• PMS, irritability and anxiety through a hormone and nervous system lens
• Inflammation, gut health and how it shows up in your cycle
• Hair loss, low libido and postpartum shifts
• When to advocate for yourself and ask for deeper support

The big takeaway

Your cycle is basically a monthly health report.
 Once you know how to read it, your body stops feeling like the enemy and starts becoming your guide.

Hey beauty. If you’ve ever been told your eggs are “too old,” your AMH is “too low,” or that time is running out… take a deep breath with me.

This episode clears up the biggest fertility myths keeping women scared and stuck — and shows you the truth about what actually shapes your egg health.
 Spoiler: it’s not what you think. 💛🍑

We dive into:

• The wildly misunderstood truth about egg quality and age
• The truth about AMH, what it actually measures, and why low AMH does not equal poor egg quality or infertility
• The sneaky ways your everyday symptoms are actually trying to help you
• What your body is really doing when it’s stressed
• A simple framework that instantly explains your hormones, immune system and inflammation
• The surprising everyday habits that make egg quality better... or worse
• The breakfast mistakes that send your hormones into chaos before 9am
• The underrated lifestyle shifts that change your terrain more than supplements do
• How to spot when your body is in “woe mode” and the gentlest way to shift out
• The one thing women over 35 really need to focus on (and it’s not rushing to IVF)

This is a deep-exhale, “wait… why has nobody told me this?” kind of episode.
 You’ll walk away clearer, calmer and genuinely empowered about your next steps.

Healing Your Fertility with EFT Tapping: Calm Your Nervous System + Release Stress

Hey beauty 💛

Today we’re diving into one of my ride-or-die tools for calm, clarity, and fertility flow: EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) — a.k.a. emotional acupuncture. It looks a little woo, feels a little weird at first… and it works. This is the tool that helped me through anxious seasons, postpartum chaos, and those fun moments when Jack’s melting down and I'm just in crazy overwhelm. If your nervous system has been living in Stress City, this one’s for you.

And here’s why this convo matters for you. If your body doesn’t feel safe, it won’t prioritise conception. Nervous system regulation is the foundation that makes your nutrition, supplements, cycle tracking, and even IVF actually land. EFT is one of the fastest ways I know to send your body the “you’re safe now” signal.

Inside this ep, we cover:

• What EFT actually is and why I call it “emotional acupuncture”
• The tapping points and a simple step-by-step so you can start today
• How to use EFT for fertility anxiety, IVF stress, fear of miscarriage, cravings, pain and sleep
• The before-and-after check-in that shows your progress in real time
• Client stories, my first experience with tapping, and why I still work with an EFT practitioner for deeper layers

✨ Why this matters for fertility

When your nervous system is stuck in fight or flight, cortisol steals from your sex hormones and your body hits pause on reproduction. EFT calms the amygdala, lowers cortisol, and helps you shift into rest-digest-reproduce mode. Translation: better ovulation, steadier cycles, deeper sleep, happier digestion… and a body that feels safe to conceive.

The Missing Piece to Boost Fertility: Nervous System Reset with Phoebe Greenacre

Hey beauty 💛

Today I’ve got Phoebe Greenacre on the pod. She’s a self-healing entrepreneur, yoga and somatics teacher, and host of the Consciously Alive podcast. After co-founding a global fashion brand and ticking off over 70 countries, Phoebe realised the wildest trip of all was coming home to her body. Now she helps women do exactly that.

And here’s why this convo matters for you. Nervous system healing is the absolute foundation for fertility. You can eat all the kale, track every ovulation app and even do IVF, but if your body doesn’t feel safe, it won’t prioritise making a baby. Full stop. This is the piece that makes all the other stuff actually work.

Inside this ep, we cover:

• The surprising therapy that helps you get out of your head and into your body (and why your hormones love it)
• Quick little resets you can do in under a minute to calm stress and get your body baby-ready
• The type of movement that supports fertility and what to bin for now
• A simple self-massage trick that chills your nervous system and even helps your digestion
• Phoebe’s own story of going from stress and struggle to calling in her daughter against the odds

✨ Why this matters for fertility
 When your nervous system is stuck in fight or flight, your body basically says nope, not safe to have a baby right now. When you feel grounded and calm, your hormones balance, ovulation flows, and your womb becomes the safe home it’s meant to be.

Low Tox Living: Simple Swaps to Balance Hormones + Supercharge Fertility

Hey beauty 💛

Welcome back to The Wilde Way! Today we’re talking low tox living — and no, I’m not telling you to throw out everything you own and move to a hut. This isn’t about fear or perfection. It’s about small, simple swaps that give your body (and your family’s bodies) space to thrive.

Because here’s the thing: it’s not just about egg quality or fertility (though that’s a big win). It’s about keeping you around long enough to watch your babies grow up — and giving them the healthiest start possible.

And we can’t ignore it: our environment is a huge part of the health puzzle. Childhood health issues are rising fast, and toxins are a big factor:

 ✨ Food allergies in kids have more than tripled in recent decades
 ✨ Autism diagnoses are up 40% in just four years
 ✨ Childhood cancer rates have climbed over 30% since the 80s

These things are never one single cause, but our kids are swimming in a chemical soup our grandparents never had to face.

This isn’t about panic, babe, it’s about empowerment. Once you know better, you can do better. Each swap clears the clutter from your body’s “inbox” and sets you (and your family) up for long-term health.

Inside this ep, we cover:
🌿 The sneaky hormone disruptors hiding in food, cleaning sprays, cookware + skincare
 🌿 How to shop smart without blowing your budget (hello Dirty Dozen!)
 🌿 Easy kitchen + bathroom swaps that don’t feel overwhelming
 🌿 Simple detox boosters that help to clear the junk

I’ve also made you a Low Tox Starter Guide PDF with all the links + brands in one place. 

🎧 Listen now, grab your guide, and start stacking little swaps into big results.

Fertility, Hormones, PCOS, Hashimotos + Gut Fixes with Naturopath Deb Gibson

Okay, this one is for the women who are done being told “your tests look fine” while your hormones are still wreaking havoc.

This week on The Wilde Way, I’m joined by the incredible Deb Gibson — naturopath, hormone detective, and women’s health expert with almost 20 years of clinical experience. She studied in Canada, worked alongside the period queen Lara Briden, and now helps women crack the code on PCOS, Hashimotos, thyroid drama, gut chaos and more.

In this episode, we get into:
 ✨ The real drivers of PCOS and Hashimotos (and what testing actually matters)
 ✨ Why a single “polycystic looking” ultrasound does not equal PCOS
 ✨ How your gut and liver can secretly hijack your hormones
 ✨ The cortisol-adrenal connection behind fatigue (and how to reset)
 ✨ Two wild fertility stories — including one where an energy healer literally uncaged a womb

This chat is juicy, eye-opening, and guaranteed to make you rethink what’s actually behind your hormone chaos.

Egg Quality & Hormones: Are You Making This Breakfast Mistake?

Hey, beautiful — let’s talk breakfast. 🥑☕

If you’re rolling out of bed and heading straight for that coffee or big fat skipping breakfast altogether… your hormones and egg quality are not loving this vibe.

In this episode, I’m breaking down why that “coffee first” ritual is secretly spiking your cortisol, messing with your blood sugar, and putting your reproductive system in the back seat before the day’s even started.

We’ll chat about:
 ✨ Why eating within an hour of waking sends your body a “you’re safe” signal that boosts fertility
 ✨ The circadian rhythm–hormone connection (and why breakfast keeps it on track)
 ✨ How a simple smoothie can hit all the fertility nutrient boxes 
✨ The exact formula I use for my fertility-friendly morning smoothie (plus quick, real-life brekkie swaps if smoothies aren’t your thang)
✨ How to time your coffee so it’s hormone-friendly, not hormone-wrecking, you're welcome.

You’ll also get my quick wins for meal prepping grab-and-go breakfasts so you’re never running on empty — because your hormones, your cycle, and your ovaries all breathe a sigh of relief when breakfast is a non-negotiable.

Egg Quality, IVF & Food Freedom with Nutritionist Monique Cormack

Alright beauty, let’s talk about food, fertility, and all the mixed messages out there. Do you really need to cut a million things out of your diet? Or is there a more balanced way to nourish your hormones and prep your body for a baby?

Today I’m joined by Monique Cormack, fertility and pregnancy nutritionist, IVF mama, and co-founder of Ova Gold by ARXI. Mon’s story is huge: from a high-pressure law career, through infertility, IVF and premature births, to later conceiving naturally. Now she helps women take the stress out of eating well for fertility with evidence-based, realistic strategies that actually feel doable.

Inside this chat:
✨ Mon’s journey from IVF heartbreak to natural conception (and what shifted for her health)
✨ How to cut through the fertility “food rules” online and focus on what really matters
✨ Egg quality 101: why the 90-day window is key and which nutrients your eggs are hungry for
✨ Sperm health tips for the penis-partners (yep, we went there)
✨ Supplements: what’s truly essential and what’s just expensive pee
✨ The often-ignored nutrient that matters big-time if you’ve been pregnant or breastfeeding
✨ Why Mon co-created Ova Gold to support preconception health without overwhelming your supplement shelf

This convo is the perfect mix of nerdy science and everyday girlfriend talk, with plenty of laughs about digit packages, Game of Thrones-style meltdowns, and why chicken thighs for breakfast are not your fertility miracle.

Unexplained Infertility? Here’s What Your Doctor Might Be Missing 🕵️‍♀️💛

“Everything looks fine.”
 “You’re just one of those unexplained infertility cases.”
 Cool… thanks for nothing.

Here’s the truth: “unexplained” doesn’t mean there’s no explanation — it usually just means no one’s doing a deep dive on your labs or symptoms. In fact, research shows there’s one big factor that’s rarely tested for but can quietly derail ovulation, implantation, and pregnancy… and you might never hear about it in a standard consult.

In this episode, I’m sharing:
 ✨ The surprising body system that’s in constant conversation with your ovaries
 ✨ Why it can make or break your fertility outcomes — even if your cycle looks “perfect”
 ✨ The tests and lifestyle tweaks that could uncover your missing puzzle piece

If you’ve been told “everything’s normal” but you know something isn’t, this is the episode you’ll want to hear.
