In this conversation, Nicole shares her journey from a traditional Western medical background to a holistic approach in the fertility space. She discusses the importance of trauma-informed care, the impact of generational trauma, and the need for a balanced focus on both the emotional and physical aspects of fertility. Through her unique analogy of the foundation, nursery, and house, she sheds light on how we are to best spend our time, energy, and money while navigating fertility. The discussion also highlights the necessity of involving partners in the process (as well as analyzing sperm) and the importance of understanding energy in relation to fertility. Takeaways Nicole's journey into fertility work began after personal trauma. Trauma-informed care is crucial in fertility discussions. Generational trauma can affect fertility and emotional health. A holistic approach considers both emotional and physical health. The foundation, nursery, and house analogy helps frame fertility care. 80% of fertility efforts should focus on emotional and foundational health. Energy plays a significant role in fertility and wellness. Involving partners in the fertility journey is essential. Women-centered care prioritizes the individual's holistic experience. Trauma-informed training for fertility practitioners is necessary.
