Fertility Journey
ou’re right about that one🙃 if you had dreams of starting or expanding your family in 2023 but it didn’t happen, this is for you👇🏼
My goal as a PCOS and fertility dietitian is to take what can be a challenging and confusing time and make it a little lighter.
I know how easy it is to get lost in hours of doom scrolling “fertility” on TikTok or googling “how to get pregnant”.
You’ve probably tried one too many “hacks” and spent one too many hours comparing your journey to others.
This is why I come alongside you with evidence based tips and guidance.💗
I take some of that heavy burden off your shoulders so you can know you’re doing what you can to support your body and fertility.
No more “what should I eat” or “am I doing this right?”
Let 2024 be your year.
The year you invest in your health, your fertility, and your future family.

Fertility Support From a Dietitian
8th grade health class teacher: “if you have s$x you’ll get pregnant!!! Be careful!”
30 year old you: “umm… I wish!”😢
While it CAN be that simple for some folks, for others getting pregnant will take a little more time and effort.
Does this mean getting pregnant isn’t possible? NO!
It just means having tailored support and guidance could make all the difference when it comes to filling your dreams of carrying a baby.🤰🏽
🌈I’ve helped dozens of folks improve their fertility, prep their body for pregnancy, and finally feel empowered on their health journey when they were convinced all hope was lost.
Ready to make this your reality and finally get pregnant in 2024?

Dairy and PCOS
100% willing to die on this hill friends!
If you have PCOS, you can eat dairy.
If you are TTC, you can eat dairy.
In fact, if you have PCOS and/or are TTC, full-fat dairy has been shown to benefit fertility.
If you notice unpleasant symptoms after consuming dairy, honor that too.
All I’m saying, is there is no definitive evidence to support that all people with PCOS and all people TTC must cut out all dairy.
Start by honing in to your body and how it feels. The more you do this, the easier it becomes.
There is some research to support the fact that dairy can cause cystic acne, but this is not the case for everyone and also not the same for cysts on the ovaries.
Remember, the “cysts” referred to with polycystic ovaries are not actually ovarian cysts. They are immature follicles that don’t mature to the point of being ovulated.
Circling back to a point earlier, full fat dairy has actually been shown to support fertility by promoting ovulation so, if dairy is something you want to include in your diet, full fat dairy is a great option for many people with PCOS!
Dairy is also an amazing source of protein as well as many vitamins and minerals so there are absolutely benefits to including it in your diet.

PSA: if you’re hoping to get pregnant in 2024, dieting is NOT the way to go.
I know that navigating the complexities of fertility, pregnancy, and hormones can be overwhelming.
It makes sense that you want to be proactive and take action towards your goals, but turning to the wrong methods can actually be counterproductive☹️
That’s why I’ve created Fertility Foundations Protocol: A step-by-step roadmap to finally take control of your fertility journey, increase your chances of getting pregnant, and feel empowered to make decisions for yourself and your family.👏🏼✨
With this protocol you will:
💫Feel confident that every decision you make is supporting your fertility.
💫Have everything you need to do, eat, and learn to get pregnant laid out for you?
💫Overcome your limiting beliefs that are hindering your ability to get pregnant.
Let 2024 be the year you finally take your future into your own hands and get the practical support you need📣

SAVE THESE AFFIRMATIONS for your fertile window👏🏼✨
The idea behind affirmations is to use positive and present-tense statements to reinforce a desired mindset or belief.
When it comes to fertility, incorporating affirmations into your routine during your fertile window can help reduce stress, enhance your overall well-being, and create a more positive environment for conception.🤰🏽
You might want to journal, these, say them in mirror, or even repeat them to yourself on your way to work.
Here are a few examples to get you started and WHY they can support your fertility journey⬇️
💫Affirmation: “I am calm and at peace, trusting in the natural process of conception.”
💭Explanation: Stress and anxiety can have a negative impact on fertility. By affirming a sense of calm and trust, you may reduce the physiological effects of stress on your body.
💫Affirmation: “My body is strong, healthy, and ready for the gift of new life.”
💭Explanation: Focusing on the positive aspects of your body’s health and readiness can create a more optimistic mindset, reinforcing the idea that your body is prepared for conception.
💫Affirmation: “I trust the timing of my fertility journey, and I am patient as I await the miracle of new life.”
💭Explanation: Fertility can be a journey filled with ups and downs. Affirming patience helps to shift the focus from impatience or frustration to a more accepting and trusting mindset.
💫Affirmation: “I love and honor my body, and I am grateful for its ability to create life.”
💭Explanation: Cultivating a positive relationship with your body can positively impact your overall well-being. Expressing gratitude for your body’s abilities can contribute to a healthier mindset.
💫Affirmation: “I am confident in my ability to conceive and create a loving environment for my future child.”
💭Explanation: Confidence in your ability to conceive is key. Affirmations that reinforce this confide

PCOS Nutrition
😣Are you tired of feeling like PCOS is running your life?
🙃Do you find yourself struggling with irregular periods, hormonal imbalances, facial hair, and fluctuating energy levels?
😓Do you have no idea where to turn and feel overwhelmed just trying to start?
Click here to learn more about how I can guide you to PCOS symptom remission: https://happyhormonesdietitian.com/work-with-me/
PCOS Symptom Remission is Possible!
What may appear “minor” to a lot of people is actually a big struggle for many of us with PCOS… facial hair😣
While it may seem like just an added step to your morning routine, facial hair can be a big insecurity and source of pain for many folks.
It may even feel like a physical reminder of what’s going on in your body.
Two things I want you to know if facial hair or acne is a struggle for you:
1️⃣ You are NOT alone and your feelings are valid. You’d be surprised how many clients I talk to about facial hair every week! This is another reminder that community is important and that other PCOSers can empathize with your feelings and struggles.
2️⃣ It IS possible to clear up your pesky facial hair! I love getting messages from clients saying “I no longer have to pluck my facial hair or worry about acne” and know that I helped them get there💗
Meals that will also aid in symptom management and support your body’s needs😍
What do you think of when you hear “meal prep”? Plain chicken and broccoli in plastic containers? Forcing yourself to eat the same meal day after day? Trying to hit a calorie goal?
Trust me, I get it!🙃 Sadly diet culture has hijacked meal prep to make it something that feels restrictive and frustrating, when really it should be something that makes your life feel easier.
Feeling overwhelmed and don’t know where to begin?
My PCOS Meal Plan Subscription is for you🙌🏼🌈
Inside you’ll get a custom meal calendar each month complete with recipes, grocery lists, tips, and more!
And the best part? These meals are balanced and designed to support your PCOS symptom remission!🥲

UGH😤
As someone who has PCOS myself and who has helped dozens of women navigate their own, I know the typical advice most people are given at the doctors office.
Well I am here to tell you that this is lazy and ineffective advice!
There are sooo many other lifestyle and nutrition factors you can use to manage your PCOS symptoms and improve your quality of life💫
Oh, and having PCOS is NOT your fault- don’t let anyone convince you otherwise.
