In this episode of Hormone Happy Hour, I’m bringing attention to a piece of the fertility puzzle that’s often ignored: sperm health.

So often, the focus is solely on the woman’s body—but male fertility plays a huge role in outcomes, whether you’re preparing your body for pregnancy or working to restore balance first. There’s a lot more to it than just sperm count, and today we’re getting into all the layers.

I’m walking you through:

• What sperm analysis really tells us (beyond just count)
• Markers like DNA fragmentation, morphology, and pH levels
• Lifestyle shifts, supplements, and gut support that can make a difference
• How stress, sleep, and emotional well-being affect male fertility
• Why masculine/feminine energy alignment in your relationship matters more than you think

This episode is part science, part heart, and a little summer fun—and it’s one I hope you’ll share with your partner or someone who needs to hear it.

✨ And a big thank you to Cozy Earth for sponsoring this episode! They make my favorite temperature-regulating sleep essentials that support deep rest (and yes—rest matters for sperm health, too).

In this episode, I’m kicking off a special summer series where we’re diving deep into some of the most-requested wellness topics—starting with sleep (because wow, does it impact everything!).

This one’s especially close to home for me. I’ve walked through my own struggles with insomnia and restless nights, and I know how defeating it can feel when your body just won’t rest—even when you’re doing “all the right things.” So today, I’m walking you through the real connection between sleep and your hormones—how it affects your libido, intimacy, fertility, stress, and even gut health.

You’ll hear:

• Why quality sleep is so much more than just getting 8 hours
• What’s going on with your hormones when you can’t fall—or stay—asleep
• Emotional and spiritual aspects of rest we don’t talk about enough
• Practical (and doable) ways to regulate your circadian rhythm, support blood sugar, and create a calming sensory-rich routine

Whether you’re in a season of night-waking, stress dreaming, or just want to feel more rested and alive—this episode will help you tune into what your body actually needs.

In this episode of the Hormone Happy Hour podcast, we’re digging into something that often gets overlooked in the fertility and hormone conversation: energy. Not just "I need a nap" kind of energy—but the actual frequency your body operates on and how it affects everything from hormone production to blood flow to your ability to heal. And this isn’t your typical woo-woo conversation about energy.

✨ Inside this episode:

• What your energy (measured in Hertz!) says about your health
• How stress, emotions, and even your thoughts can either energize or deplete your body
• The example of mineral movement + organ function in creating balance
• Simple ways to shift your energy
• How energetic blocks may be showing up in your fertility journey—and what to do about it

I also share some exciting updates, including new hormone-supportive mocktail & cocktail recipes I’ll be sharing weekly (yes, they’re just as fun as they sound 🍹) and why you’ll want to be on the newsletter list for first dibs.

🌿 Whether you’re TTC or just trying to feel more vibrant and aligned in your body, this episode is full of tangible takeaways to help you reconnect with your healing power.
