You started out on this journey thinking it would be easy... and now the expenses are piling up and even a Starbucks latte seems expensive these days.  Forget IVF...who has the money for that? The good news is, I’ve brought an expert on the show today to help you find the money that you need to finance your fertility journey.  And these are crazy way to find money that you have never thought of.   The expert today is our resident finance expert Devon Baeza.  You may have seen her around inside our FB group. She has been through it all. The emotional rollercoaster from dealing with endometriosis, to being told the embryo is not good enough only for it to become a beautiful little girl, to being in debt and paying off IVF and additional 50,000. She knows her stuff about money.  What’s really interesting though is that Devon always says to me that when we’re stressed about money, it’s never about the money.  So you’re going to hear us first talk about:  the stigma about talking about money why money brings so much stress and anxiety and how to navigate those feelings.   And of course she’s going to share the 5 crazy ways to find and make money so you can use it to finance your treatments, buy more supplements, organic foods, and maybe coaching that you need.

Could a Keto Diet Help With Fertility With Carrie Jackson, RD, MS

You know how I'm always talking about the trifecta to getting pregnant?  Nutrition, lifestyle and mindset?  So many of you ask me for tips and tricks on how to improve your body physically, but no one ever asks me for advice on how to get into the right mindset.   Yet, mindset is ⅓ of the pie, a crucial piece of the getting pregnant pie. But how do you get into the right mindset? Is it simply practicing gratitude and meditation?  Is it simply just think positively? If you’ve followed me long enough you would know that the answer to that last question is a "no." So today, I have brought a very special guest to the show to talk about getting into the right frame of mind through being present, setting intentions and meditating. Meet Jane Ritz, other wise known as Jane the guide.  Jane is an energy healer and sonic meditation expert.   Now don’t make the mistake of turning away from this episode and thinking that it’s way too esoteric and "woo woo."  There is nothing "woo woo" about this episode because we’re going to be talking about real action steps that you can take to get into the right mindset and I guarantee that you’ve never heard anything like this before.

How To Intentionally Get Pregnant with Jane Ritz

This topic is an especially hard one to talk about because it has to do with my perfectionism because, I like to be perfect all the time.  In fact I feel like I have to be perfect all the time. I want to really highlight this today because It’s taking me a super long time to realize that my perfectionism could be standing in the way of my own success.  And perhaps you’ll resonate with some of the things that I’m going to talk about so bear with me. And I always say that self awareness is the first step. If you’re not self aware then it’s going to be hard to take action.  So I think this episode will apply to a lot of you if not all of you who are listening out there.

It doesn’t seem fair but we all know someone who was so frustrated, then says screw it all, I’m going to party like a rockstar this month, eat what I want, do what I want...and they end up getting pregnant. So is there some truth to just relax and it’ll happen? I know so many of you love the tips and tricks but  I keep noticing over and over again inside the private group that a lot of you are stuck on the mindset piece. So this is not going to be an episode where I tell you that you can’t feel a certain way because that’s not how I do things.  But what’s really interesting is that in Chinese medicine, each emotion is tied to a certain organ system.  And each emotion can absolutely have an impact on the functions of each organ system, and ultimately fertility.

Today’s podcast episode is all about money- or rather deciding which blood work panels and diagnostics are TRULY WORTH the financial investments that come with them. Today’s episode kicks off a new mini-series I’m doing called, “Where Should I Spend My Money?” For today, we’ll talk about: ----&gt; The standard tests you should ALWAYS ask for… ----&gt; The test to get if you haven’t had your period in 3+ months… ----&gt; When a uterine biopsy makes sense… and when it doesn’t. ----&gt; What tests your partner should be getting... ----&gt; And you’ll get my thoughts on the HSG test, sonograms, laparoscopies…   Listen, I know it’s overwhelming just to read that list above… and depending on your insurance or the type of test, you’re probably seeing $$$ all over the place. But this is important- and with new advice, information and “internet experts” coming from all aspects of your life- I promise this episode will help break it down CLEARLY and CONCISELY so you spend money on the right things at the right time.

It’s hard to let things go sometimes- especially when we’re looking for answers. You’re not getting pregnant so CLEARLY it’s something you’re doing wrong, right? Well… no, not always. Sometimes it simply is just the timing... and has absolutely nothing to do with what flavor tea you’re drinking. Yes, you do need to pay attention to lifestyle habits… Yes, you do need to cut certain things from your diet… And HECK YES, you do need to understand your cycle… But still, there are just some things that you can officially toss in the “WHO CARES BUCKET!” And that’s what we’re going to gab about today! On today’s episode I’m going to: ----&gt; Break down the top 4 things I hear people worrying about most… ----&gt; Explain why they aren’t worth becoming a worry-wart over… ----&gt; And there’s a little bonus “ah ha” moment about spleen energy and digestion I think you’re going to like… Quit pulling your hair out over every little thing and join me to catch a breather.  TTC is exhausting

Today, we’re going to be talking about a healthy diet vs a fertile diet and I’m going to shock you by talking about one hormone that’s the most crucial for fertility (hint: it’s not estrogen.) Anytime I post anything about nutrition or diet, the posts always generate the most responses.  I think this an area that most people struggle with.  Food across all cultures bring up emotions for everyone, whether it’s joy, sadness, anger, fear, whatever.  Humans have such deep emotional connection to food because we have to eat to live.   But what I find is that there are lots of misconceptions around nutrition and what’s healthy what’s not.  I have a dramatically different viewpoint on nutrition than a lot of other practitioners and coaches.  I don’t believe a healthy diet is necessarily a fertile diet, but type in fertiles diets in google, and your eyes might pop out from the number of results and also the different people telling you different things.   So the purpose of this episode is not to convince you that what I recommend is the best, or which diet you should be following.  But I hope this episode can really explain how nutrition plays a role to help you get pregnant or how it can actually be preventing you from getting pregnant if you’re not eating a fertile diet.  I’m a firm believer that knowledge is power, if you truly understand a concept then it becomes easier to make changes and stick to a plan.     Episodes mentioned: Ep 55 - Overview of Male Fertility   Links mentioned: adriennewei.com/freebies

My guest today is Jocey Rodriguez, my right hand person.  She has been on show multiple times and if you’re part of our private Facebook group, you certainly have benefited from her expertise.   A couple of weeks ago, Jocey and I were discussing cases, and we got on the topic of fertility urban legends that people believe to be true and how we wish these urban legends didn’t spread like wildfire.   And you know what I’m talking about.  “Eat pineapple and drink pomegranate juice.” “Use Robitussin to thin the cervical mucus.” Listen we totally get it, when nothing is happening the way you envisioned, you want answers and you want to know what you can do today to fix it all. I asked Jocey to be on the show today because 1) It gets lonely sometimes flying solo and 2) I wanted a little extra help to debunk some of the popular fertility legends that are out there. These urban legends, while none of them are harmful, and in fact they might help some people, they are not the best way to approach your fertility.   OK, so we’re going to:  Debunk the top 6 urban legends when it comes to TTC The alternatives and practical actions you can take instead.

Truth or Fertility Urban Legend: Popular Beliefs Debunked

Ahhhhh, yes, the Two-Week-Wait, or 2WW... The Two-Week-Wait is the time between ovulation and when you test for pregnancy. You’ve done everything you could up until this point.   You tracked ovulation and you did the baby dance and now….you wait.   You find yourself “symptom checking.”  Ohhhh, is that an implantation cramp?  Do I feel slight nausea?  Did my boobs get bigger? You also can’t help it but hop onto fertility blogs and forums to see if anyone else out there is feeling the same way.  Does any of this sound familiar to you? The two weeks wait feels like an eternity, it feels like two years instead of two weeks. This anguish and anxiety comes from the unknown and the fact that you’ve done everything you could up to this point, and there’s little you can do now except just waiting and waiting. Many people will tell you don’t stress...yeah right.  That’s the worst advice ever.  It’s important for you to understand that you’re not a crazy person, you’re not over-analyzing, what you’re feeling is completely normal.  So why fight it?  Telling yourself not to think about it is going to cause more anxiety and stress. I’ve been through thousands of 2WWs with patients and clients.  While what’s done is done and you can’t change your egg quality at this time, there are things you can do to ease the anxiety and stay positive during this time.   But in this episode, I want to share with you my best tips on how to boost your chances of implantation while maintaining your sanity and staying positive.

 9 Ways To Stay Positive and Stay Sane During the Two-Week-Wait

Today, I actually want to revisit an old topic that we’ve talked about a lot this past year.  And that is gut health.   I want to revisit gut health because since episode 3 aired, the responses and questions have been overwhelming because it’s a new way of looking at nutrition, and how specifically it affects fertility. In the US, salads are the go to "health" foods.  And most people grew up drinking milk.  So cutting out dairy and ditching the smoothies and salads for most people, presents a huge lifestyle change.   Through working with clients and talking to women in our private Facebook group, I see three main obstacles that people are encountering when they make this shift to no raw foods and no dairy. So let's dive in and talk about how to overcome these obstacles.

In our private group, I get this general feeling that there’s so much information out there and it’s hard to figure out who to listen to or what applies to you.  But a common theme that I’m sensing is that many people are putting stress on their bodies without even realizing it. If you remember from a previous episode, we went over the idea of the kidney energy reservoir and how genetics, lifestyle choices can seriously impact how quickly we use up the energy in the reservoir.  Even though I think people get this concept that if you withdraw from a savings bank without depositing back in, you’ll end up with a deficit...I don’t think the message really hit home because Chinese medicine concepts can be a little abstract.   So today I want to approach this from a functional medicine perspective and talk about stress, the different types of stress, and how it seriously damages your HPA axis and therefore can affect your chances of getting pregnant.   In this episode, I will:  Explain the concept of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis The four common stress triggers that can cause HPA axis dysregulation My top tips on how to rebalance the HPA axis  I’ve also created an assessment for you to gauges your risk for HPA axis Dysregulation, and it will quickly give you an idea of where you fall on the spectrum.   To get your hands on this assessment, you can download it at adriennewei.com/63download.     Links mentioned: Freebie Download  How to Get Healthy and Get Pregnant Facebook Community   Episodes mentioned: Episode 26 Episode 38 Episode 40 Episode 49 Episode 50

From No Period to Becoming Pregnant - A Practically Fertile™ Success Story

Today, we’re going to talk about male fertility because guess what, it still takes two-to-tango, and you need a sperm and an egg to get pregnant. Male fertility sometimes gets overlooked.  And I don’t know if it’s something deeper but when a couple is having trouble conceiving, the woman is the presumed person with the problem.  But here is the scary thing,  male fertility issues now account for 40% of all infertility cases.   So in this episode, I’m going to give you an overview of male fertility, from a western point of view and from a chinese medicine perspective.  When it comes to male fertility,  the nutrition, lifestyle, and supplement requirements are slightly different than female fertility.  We’re going to get to all that eventually in upcoming episodes, but today we’re just going to be looking at the bigger picture of male fertility.   I also get a lot of questions about how to read semen analysis results so I’m going to go over that as well.   I firmly believe that the more information you have, the more empowered you will be and the better decisions you will make.  So let’s dive right in.     Links mentioned: www.adriennewei.com www.practicallyfertieclub.com

I’m going to talk about something I love dearly,  and that is acupuncture. I talked about how specifically you should go about looking for an acupuncturist before, but there are still lots of misconceptions surround acupuncture itself.   So in this episode, I want to go into detail and:  clear up some misconceptions talk about about what a typical acupuncture treatment should look like from beginning to end what you can expect to feel during the treatment and after the treatment.    I hope to ease your fears about acupuncture because it is such a powerful tool to help you get pregnant.  I don’t want you to stop treatment or have your fears get in the way because of misconceptions, or because someone didn’t take the time to talk to you about what to expect.   Links mentioned:  Private Facebook Community

Five Steps To Overcome The Disappointment of a BFN

I received a personal message yesterday after a long day at work.  And it’s my favorite type of message - a pregnancy success story. One of my listeners wanted to let me know that she has been following me for a few months and she incorporated my diet advice as part her daily routine.  She is now pregnant and planning her gender reveal party. It was so amazing to receive this message.  First, she took the time out of her day to write me a note, and secondly, I’m so happy that I was able to make a difference on her journey.   For many of you, hearing about success stories is a double edged sword.  It can certain give you a ray of hope, that “if she can do it, I can too.”  But it can also cause the comparison blues  “Why is it so easy for her, but not me?” Sure the FOMO Syndrome might be partly to blame here.  We see Facebook and Instagram posts of cute pregnancy selfies, baby bump pictures and baby nursery decor.  It’s hard not to feel like we’re missing out on all of those things.   But today, I want to actually address your burning questions “why her, not me.”  Yes, there is a very real explanation why it maybe easy for some but others to get pregnant.  At the end of this episode, you’re going to feel a whole lot better because you can actually do something about it.     Links mentioned in this episode: www.adriennewei.com   Episodes mentioned: Season 3 Episode 9:  How to Avoid FOMO and Be Happier

Episode 001:Overview Of This Fertility Podcast And Get To Know Me

I touched on the core principle of Chinese medicine in episode #43.  In that episode I talked about how the guiding principle of Chinese medicine is to always strive for balance. But specifically what do we try to balance?  You hear me tossing around the terms qi stagnation, qi deficiency, blood deficiency, yin deficiency, what do these all mean?   In today’s episode, we are going to talk about the four substances, Qi, Blood, Yin and Yang.  These four substances power your body by working together.  When one of them is out of whack, it will affect the rest.   Let’s dive in and find out why they’re important and how they affect your balance.

[Chinese Medicine Series] The Four Substances and How They Affect Your Body

In this episode, we’re going to talk about how to know if you’re ready for medical intervention.   I love the fact that reproductive medicine has advanced so much now because 30 years ago, IVF wasn’t even an option.  And now many women are able to get pregnant and become mothers because of it. But I think because IUI or IVF is a readily available option, many people are jumping into these procedures pre-maturely, at least in my opinion. I totally get it, it’s so disheartening to get that big fat negative every single month, and when everyone around you is getting pregnant except you, of course if there’s an easier way, why not? But today I want to specifically talk to you about why even if you’re considering IUI, IVF you need to make sure that your body is ready because guess what, IVF is only a 46% success rate.   I’m going to talk about the steps you need to take before you even think about IUI or IVF.  And for some of you who are on the fence about IUI or IVF, this episode is going to also help you make the decision.

Sarah Kaminski

In today’s episode, I interview Sarah Kaminski.  You may remember her from an honor coaching call episode #61.  I coached Sarah on how to recover from her most recent miscarriage.  And most recently when we talked, I’m happy to report that her hormones levels have improved dramatically I’m just so excited for her because I truly feel pregnancy is just around corner for her. But today, I specifically wanted Sarah to come on the show because Sarah is Certified health coach with a passion for plant-based diet.  And today, we’re going to talk all about plant based diet for those of you who are trying to conceive and are vegetarians. Although you’ve heard my spiel about animal protein vs. plant based protein in episode #46, I never try to force or persuade anyone to ditch their vegetarians diets because I’m respectful of the reasons why someone might choose not to eat meat, whether it’s ethical reasons or whatever.   But what I’m finding is that a lot of vegetarians, especially those who are trying to conceive do not balance their meals to optimize fertility.  And since I’m not a plant-based diet expert, I’ve asked Sarah to help me out and talk about how to thrive on a plant based diet.

I don’t know if this sounds like you...but, in my ten years of coaching women on how to get pregnant, I’ve seen this plenty of times.   At some point of your journey, you’re going to get to a point where you feel defeated because nothing you’re doing is working.  At times you may even question your own will power, maybe I’m just not cut out for this. This happens so frequently, and it’s not your fault.  So in today’s episode, I want to talk about how to regain your motivation when you feel defeated.  I want to help you to get back to when you first started trying-to-conceive, to that level of excitement you had before any of the heartaches and disappointments started to take over.   I know how hard it can be to keep charging forward when you feel like the odds are stacked up against you, when you feel alone, when you feel sad and depressed.   There is no magic pill that you can take to go from” one minute laying on the floor crying” to “the next minute you’re ready to conquer the world.”  But I’m going to share with you my tips and tricks to help you get back on the horse, and keep moving forward towards your goal.     Let’s dive right in.

How to Regain Motivation When You Feel Defeated

So today, I want you to meet Sarah. Sarah is a mom to a beautiful little boy and she is trying to conceive for the second time but unfortunately suffered two miscarriages back to back.   In this episode, we talk a lot about nutrition because Sarah is a vegetarian and has been for many years. Even though animal protein is my preferred source for proteins, I never ever force anyone to stop being a vegetarian.  So don’t worry, I do not try to convince Sarah to switch her eating habits.  But I give Sarah a few pointers on how to adjust her diet to boost her fertility. Sarah is super inquisitive.  She asked a bunch of great questions that I think you’re going to love hearing the answers to.  Some of these questions I see coming up over and over again in our private group, so it’s going to provide clarity for those of you who are confused about certain concepts.

[On-Air Coaching Call] I help Sarah Create Her Pathway to Pregnancy™

I always talk about how Chinese medicine is really different than Western medicine.  Because one medical system looks for the root cause of diseases and the other is about putting out fire and treating the symptom.  But yet, these two medical systems have a lot of similarities.   I mentioned last week that I really want to break down the information into bite sized pieces so it’s easier to understand and grasp the concepts.  Especially when it comes to Chinese medicine.   To many of you it’s a fairly new way of looking at the human body. In today’s episode, I’m going to start with the very, very basic and talk about the core principle of Chinese medicine and its approach to wellness, which is to always strive for balance.
