Last year in the United States a baby was born every 8 seconds. That‘s roughly 3.8 Million babies born last year alone! You don’t have to be a fertility doctor to know what that means.

The Egg Whisperer Show

In this episode, I'm breaking down something that should be simple but often isn't: how to plan your fertility future. You don't need to be a fertility specialist or have a science degree to understand the basics of fertility planning. I want everyone to approach this the same way you'd plan a vacation: with intention, research, and realistic expectations. The most important thing I want you to know? Humans ovulate just one egg per month, and that egg only has about a 15% chance of being genetically healthy, even in our twenties. This fundamental truth changes everything about how we should...
