About the Episode:
Welcome to the chaotic fertility crossover episode we had to do: Hollywood vs. reality. From matcha miracles to miracle babies at 50+, Laura and Brandis are calling out the mixed messages, magic timelines, and media-fueled misconceptions that have us all screaming “HOW?!”

We’re breaking down:
✨ Celebs who “just stopped trying and got pregnant”
🧬 Designer baby myths & yoni steams
🕰️ The ticking clock trope (we see you, Bachelor Nation)
📺 IVF portrayed in 30 seconds or less
🤯 Why “natural” isn’t always better

Whether it’s Kardashians, Teen Mom, or tabloid headlines, we’re setting the record straight on what’s actually possible—and what’s just ✨TV magic✨.

Hot Takes & Real Talk:

  • Fertility facts don’t care about your Hollywood inspo board

  • No, you can’t pick your baby’s eye color (yet)

  • IVF ≠ instant pregnancy

  • Therapy is hot. Unrealistic expectations are not.
