How One Male Founder Is Helping Transform the Fertility Space
1w ago00:53:09Tap to summarizeWhat happens when a man steps into the fertility conversation with honesty, vulnerability, and a mission to change the experience for everyone? In this powerful episode, Beth Gulotta sits down with Jake Kent, co-founder of Dandi, for a conversation that goes far beyond fertility treatment. Together, they unpack the silent pressures men carry around masculinity, emotions, relationships, and fertility struggles — and why so many people feel forced to suffer quietly behind carefully curated lives. Jake opens up about his personal journey into the fertility space, the emotional realities men often avoid talking about, and the deeper self-work that can emerge when life doesn't follow the timeline you expected. Beth and Jake also dive into the inspiration behind Dandi and how the company is working to create a more human, supported, and emotionally connected fertility experience for individuals and couples navigating treatment. This episode is an honest conversation about identity, vulnerability, modern relationships, and learning how to stop measuring your life against society's invisible checklist. Expect meaningful insights, emotional moments, and a refreshing perspective on what it really means to show up authentically in today's world.

The Hidden Emotional Toll of IVF and Egg Freezing | National Infertility Awareness Week
Apr 2900:20:23Tap to summarizeInfertility, egg freezing, and IVF can be as emotionally complex as they are medically complex. In honor of National Infertility Awareness Week, we are re-sharing this powerful conversation about the mental health side of fertility treatments. Beth sits down with fertility specialist Dr. Anate Brauer, MD, Board Certified OBGYN, to talk about what women are rarely prepared for when navigating fertility decisions. From egg freezing and IVF to the emotional rollercoaster of hope, anger, grief, and empowerment, this conversation pulls back the curtain on the real experience many women face. Dr. Brauer explains the key differences between egg freezing vs. embryo freezing, common misconceptions about fertility timelines, and what he wishes more patients understood before starting treatment. They also explore why mental health support, therapy, and compassionate care are essential parts of the fertility journey. Whether you are considering egg freezing, going through IVF, or simply feeling the pressure of the biological clock, this episode offers reassurance that there is no single timeline for building a family. During National Infertility Awareness Week, we're amplifying conversations like this one to remind you: you are not alone, and your path to family can take many forms.

Apr 2200:24:47Tap to summarizeIf you are in the middle of your fertility journey, this episode is for you. After navigating the heartbreak and uncertainty of secondary infertility, Beth shares a deeply honest update at 6 weeks postpartum.

Beth is holding space for you in this conversation and always will. This community was built on honesty, and that doesn't end here.

Transcribe →A Therapist Answers Your Biggest Dating & Relationship Questions
Mar 1800:24:15Tap to summarizeIn this episode of Quiet the Clock, Beth grabs the mic and answers real questions straight from the audience, from both men and women who are trying to make sense of dating, relationships, and all the pressure that seems to come with them. No scripts. No sugarcoating. Just honest, therapist-level insight into the questions people are actually asking but rarely say out loud. From When do I bring up what I really want? to How do I stop overthinking every interaction? Beth breaks down what healthy communication, vulnerability, and emotional maturity really look like in modern dating. The conversation weaves through everything from misaligned timelines and fertility worries to the quiet chaos social media creates when it comes to comparison and expectations. Along the way, Beth reminds us that clarity is not too much, curiosity is powerful, and you're not "behind" just because your path looks different. Think of this episode as part group chat, part therapy session, and part deep exhale. You'll walk away with practical takeaways, mindset shifts, and a little more confidence to ask the questions that actually matter. We wrap things up with a few favorite wellness recommendations to help keep your nervous system intact while dating in the wild. Press play if you're dating, questioning, overthinking, or just want to feel less alone in it all.

Transcribe →Rachel Liverman of Glowbar: Living Authentically at 40, Ditching Timelines, and Owning Your Story
Mar 400:56:35Tap to summarizeWhat happens when you stop living life on everyone else's timeline and start honoring your own? In this episode of Quiet the Clock, Beth sits down with Rachel Liverman, founder of Glowbar, for a candid, deeply refreshing conversation about choosing authenticity over expectation. From growing up in a same-sex parent household to building a successful beauty brand, Rachel's story challenges nearly every "should" we're handed about marriage, fertility, aging, and success. Rachel opens up about therapy, divorce, egg freezing, entrepreneurship, and the emotional weight of doing life differently. With honesty, humor, and hard-earned wisdom, she shares how mental health became a lifelong anchor and why optimism, self-compassion, and self-trust matter more than hitting milestones on time. If you've ever felt behind, off-track, or quietly questioning the timeline you were taught to follow, this conversation will feel like permission to breathe. No hustle worship. No comparison spiral. Just a powerful reminder that there is no single right way to build a meaningful life. Hit play if you're ready to quiet the noise, trust your timing, and glow on your own terms FOLLOW OUR GUEST: Rachel Liverman is the founder and CEO of Glowbar, the fastest-growing skincare brand transforming the way people think about facials. With a bold vision and deep industry roots, Rachel has redefined the category, building a brand that's made expert-led, results-driven skincare a non-negotiable part of any wellness routine. A third-generation esthetician, Rachel grew up steeped in the world of skincare. Her grandmother, Catherine Hinds, was a pioneer in the field — launching a chain of salons in the 1960s, creating her own product line, and founding the first accredited esthetics school in the U.S. in 1979. This legacy didn't just influence Rachel, it lit the fire that would become Glowbar. Since launching in 2019, Rachel has shaped Glowbar into a cult-followed powerhouse with 20+ studios, a growing product line, and two consecutive appearances on the Inc. 5000 list. Under her leadership, the brand has scaled a new category called wellcare: the convergence of modern healthcare and wellness rituals that center on services that are convenient and consistent. Rachel drives the company's brand, experience, product strategy, and expansion, bringing both rigor and soul to every decision. Prior to founding Glowbar, she spent over a decade in the beauty industry, building expertise across marketing, education, and operations. In 2023, she led the company through a $10M Series A raise to accelerate growth and scale its impact. Her mission is clear: to redefine clinical-grade skincare as a form of everyday healthcare and to help people feel confident in their skin. Social media pages: - Instagram @rachelista @glowbar - LinkedIn rachelliverman - TikTok @getglowbar Websites: - https://glowbar.com - https://linkin.bio/rachelista/ - https://shopmy.us/rachelista We Also Talk About: Living life on one's own timeline and embracing non-traditional paths.

Societal pressures on women regarding age, fertility, and family planning. Personal experiences with marriage, divorce, and the influence of external expectations. The emotional and physical challenges of egg freezing and fertility decisions. The role of mindset and manifestation practices in navigating life's challenges.

Feb 2500:25:34Tap to summarizeWhat if the detours, heartbreaks, and awkward in-between years were never delays, but preparation? Beth pulls back the curtain on her real journey through dating, relationships, and the uncomfortable season of being single when everyone else seems to be "moving ahead." She opens up about repeating old patterns, the lessons heartbreak forced her to face, and the inner work that finally changed how she chose partners and herself.

This episode is for anyone who's tired of feeling behind, questioning their choices, or wondering if they missed their window. Beth challenges societal timelines around love and success and invites you to trust your own pace. If you've ever felt pressure to have it all figured out by a certain age, this conversation will help you breathe, rethink the narrative, and remember that fulfillment doesn't follow a clock.

Transcribe →Why Waiting for a Fertility Problem Is a Mistake | Dr. Natalie Crawford
Feb 1800:53:03Tap to summarizeWhat if fertility care didn't start when something went wrong, but before? In this episode, Dr. Natalie Crawford MD, a board-certified OB-GYN and reproductive endocrinologist, and author of The Fertility Formula, joins Beth for a refreshingly honest conversation that blends medical expertise with lived experience. Dr. Crawford opens up about her own infertility journey and shares what she wishes more people knew earlier about fertility, inflammation, and reproductive health. You'll hear why early fertility testing matters, what key labs like AMH and thyroid levels can reveal, and how lifestyle and chronic inflammation quietly impact reproductive outcomes. Together, we unpack the gaps in fertility education, why so many patients feel dismissed, and how shifting from reactive treatment to preventive care can change everything. This episode is equal parts empowering, informative, and hopeful, especially if you want to understand your fertility sooner, advocate for better care, or feel less alone navigating the unknown.

Feb 1100:30:33Tap to summarizeFriendships don't usually end with a bang. They fade. They shift. They quietly stop fitting the life you're living now. In this episode of Quiet The Clock, Beth goes deep into the unspoken reality of adult friendships. The kind no one warns you about. The slow drifting. The sudden jealousy when someone else's life moves faster. The grief that shows up when a friendship doesn't survive a new season. Beth shares personal stories you haven't heard before and reintroduces her powerful "Friendship Pyramid," a simple but eye-opening tool to help you understand who truly belongs in your inner circle and who may be meant for a different tier or a different chapter altogether.

It's about learning when to fight for a friendship, when to release it without guilt, and how to make room for new connections without betraying your past. If you've ever felt confused, lonely, or quietly heartbroken about a friendship that changed, this episode will make you feel deeply seen. Because growing up also means grieving friendships and choosing them with intention. We Also Talk About: The evolving nature of friendships as people age and experience life changes.

Transcribe →After The Bachelor: Julie LaPlaca on Fertility, Fear, and Starting Over
Feb 401:00:11Tap to summarizeWhat happens when you freeze your eggs at 39, leave a high-pressure TV career, and finally stop forcing life to follow a script? In this episode of Quiet the Clock, Beth sits down with Julie LaPlaca, who went from producing The Bachelor to becoming a hypnotherapist, to explore fertility, fear, and the art of trusting yourself when society's timeline grows louder. Julie opens up about her decision to freeze her eggs at 39, the emotional weight of age and societal expectations, and what it really felt like to step away from a career that looked "successful" on paper but no longer fit. She shares how hypnotherapy, spirituality, and nervous system work helped her move through uncertainty, reconnect with her intuition, and soften into life instead of white-knuckling it. We also dive into Julie's upcoming book, The Love Producer, where she explores love, vulnerability, and the courage it takes to stop performing and start living authentically. If you're navigating fertility decisions, questioning your career path, or feeling behind in any area of life, this episode is a reminder that there is no expiration date on becoming yourself. ABOUT OUR GUEST: Julie LaPlaca is a seasoned television producer with over two decades of experience working in the entertainment industry. Most notably, she spent years crafting some of reality TV's most iconic love stories as a supervising producer on The Bachelor franchise. She is also an author, life coach, hypnotherapist, and the founder of The Love Producer, a personal development brand devoted to helping others produce the love they desire in their lives. Julie writes about her transition from producing happily-ever-afters for others, to embarking on her own journey for love in her upcoming memoir, The Love Producer, releasing in July 2026. She is now dedicated to flipping the script—guiding others (and herself) on the greatest journey of all: finding the love within.
