You call this Normal? The root-cause fertility podcast

What if the “gold standard” of fertility isn’t actually the first-step solution you’ve been told it is?

In this fiery, deeply honest episode, we’re unpacking the truth behind IVF — the failure rates, the missing root-cause work, the emotional and financial toll, and why so many women are pushed toward a $25,000 procedure without ever being told that IVF doesn’t fix fertility… it bypasses it.

You’ll learn:
 • Why IVF is over-prescribed (and who actually benefits)
 • The REAL reasons transfers fail
 • The root-cause issues no clinic is testing for
 • How to know whether IVF is act...

Everywhere you look, someone’s injecting something — peptides, NAD, “miracle” shots that promise better energy, weight loss, and even fertility. But what’s really behind the hype?

In this episode, Kelsey goes full coach-meets-science mode to unpack what these compounds actually do inside your body — from BPC-157 to Tirzepatide — and what that means for your hormones, stress response, and fertility.

You’ll hear her personal experience using peptides (what worked, what didn’t, and what surprised her), why context matters more than quick fixes, and how to know if these tools are right for you.

You’ve been told your infertility is “genetic.”
But that’s not the full story — it’s just the lazy one.

In this episode, we’re diving deep into epigenetics — the science that proves your DNA isn’t destiny. You’ll learn how nutrition, stress, sleep, and your environment literally change which genes turn “on” or “off,” shaping your fertility at the cellular level.

We’ll talk methylation, gene expression, real client transformations, and how your daily choices ripple into your reproductive health (and your future children’s, too).

By the end, you’ll never hear “it’s...

If your doctor has ever told you that your AMH is “too low” or that you should “start IVF immediately,” this episode is your permission slip to breathe.

You’ll learn:
✨ What AMH really tells us about your fertility
✨ How stress, inflammation, and nutrient depletion suppress AMH

Feel like your body’s off but labs say everything’s “normal”? In this episode, we dig into the real, root-level reasons ovulation can go MIA—like nervous system overload, mineral depletion, chronic inflammation, and low cellular energy. 

Kelsey shares her personal story, explains why ovulation is about so much more than hormones, and walks you through what’s really worth paying attention to if you want your cycle (and sanity) back on track.

We cover:

What’s actually required for ovulation to happen smoothlyHow stress, gut health, and inflammation in...

Negative pregnancy tests don’t mean you’re fine. They mean you need better data. 

In this episode, Kelsey unpacks why women with “unexplained infertility” get dismissed so quickly—and what to actually look for when testing and tracking isn’t giving you answers. 

We get blunt about what normal labs miss, how to decode patterns in your cycle, and why shame starts creeping in when the system keeps gaslighting you.

We cover:

What “normal” lab values really mean (and why that’s not enough)The difference between testing for...

Male factor infertility is responsible for 40–50% of fertility challenges—and yet, it’s barely part of the conversation. 

In this episode, we go deep on what sperm quality really requires, how culture makes it hard to talk about, and why “his test was fine” doesn’t mean it’s time to stop asking questions. Kelsey shares client stories, actionable advice, and the script you can use to ask for support without shame.

We cover:

What sperm health actually depends on (hint: it’s not luck)What most semen analyses miss entirelyHow...

If you’ve only looked at your ovaries, you’re missing the bigger picture. In this episode, Kelsey breaks down how your thyroid, gut, and cortisol response impact ovulation, egg quality, hormone metabolism—and your entire experience of trying to conceive. 

You’ll learn what to ask for, what symptoms to track, and how these three systems are quietly running the show behind every “unexplained” case.

We cover:

Why your thyroid might be “fine” but still causing problemsHow gut health affects estrogen, immunity, and egg developmentWhat cortisol actually does to ovulationWhy t...
