You were told your chances were low… maybe even impossible. But before you accept that label, ask yourself this: Did anyone look deeper?

In today’s episode, we explore what often gets missed in fertility assessments — from egg quality and inflammation to the emotional toll of being handed cold statistics. You’ll hear why IVF success rates don’t always reflect your body’s actual potential… and what one woman uncovered after being told she wasn’t a good candidate.

If you’ve ever felt dismissed, confused, or out of options, this episode is your invitation to think differently.

🧭 Topics Discussed
  • Why IVF success rates can be misleading (and what they don’t measure)

  • What actually impacts egg quality — and how it’s within your influence.

  • The overlooked labs, conditions, and lifestyle factors that matter most.

  • Why women are told to harvest eggs without treating root causes.

  • A real-life story of hope after being labeled “not a good candidate”

  • The emotional side of fertility statistics — and how to reclaim your voice.

  • What restorative reproductive care can offer that mainstream approaches don’t.
