Aimee Raupp, fertility expert, licensed acupuncturist, herbalist, and author of Yes, You Can Get Pregnant, shares a more hopeful and expansive conversation around fertility, especially for women in their late 30s and 40s.

She explains why fertility is about far more than age, and how inflammation, immune health, sperm quality, uterine health, mitochondrial function, and lifestyle all shape the bigger picture.

This episode looks at the fear-based messaging women are still given around fertility and challenges the idea that turning 35 automatically means your chances are over.

We also talk about endometriosis, miscarriage, protein intake, regenerative fertility, IVF, peptides, pregnancy spacing, and what women can actually do to support healthier conception and long-term vitality.
