Summary

In this deeply moving episode of the Her Fertility Podcast, host Jess Tims, Certified Fertility Doula, shares what fertility support truly looks like: not in theory, but in real life. After years of supporting women and couples through fertility challenges, Jess reflects on why this work is so much more than a job. Being a fertility doula is a calling rooted in presence, trust, and walking alongside people through some of the most vulnerable moments of their lives. You’ll hear candid excerpts from conversations with past clients, including: ✨ Heather, who experienced pregnancy loss and IVF, and shares how fertility doula support helped her move through fear, grief, and isolation: even while pregnant ✨ Jane (anonymous name) who experienced two pregnancy losses and was filled with fear when she got pregnant again. Working with a fertility doula helped her calm her emotions and today she is a mom! ✨ Chantal, who lived with PCOS and was told IVF was her only option, and how emotional and mindset support helped her reconnect with her body and ultimately become pregnant These stories reveal what medical care alone often can’t provide: Someone who understands without explanation A steady presence through fear and uncertainty Emotional and energetic support during loss, waiting, and early pregnancy Tools to regulate the nervous system and rebuild trust in the body This episode highlights the missing piece in fertility care, the space where clients feel seen, held, and supported as whole humans, not just patients. If you’ve ever felt called to support women on their fertility journey - whether because of your own experience with infertility, loss, or simply a deep knowing that this work matters - this episode is for you. 💛 Find fertility support at www.herfertility.support…
