Before another supplement protocol, before assuming it's just your age, and before accepting that everything is \"normal,\" we have to look deeper.

In this episode, I'm breaking down exactly how your gut affects fertility—and what you can start doing today to support it. \"Your gut is not separate from your fertility—it's one of the main systems supporting it.\" — Brooke Boskovich.
