What's going on everyone, welcome back to Embody Radio, I'm your host Emily Duncan and we are back for another fun filled episode of Embody Radio.

If you're new here, what's up, my name is Emily, I am your host, I am a fitness coach, I run my own fitness coaching company EDF coaching for the last five and a half, almost six years now, so if you are ever in need of a science-based and heart-centered fitness coach, we have a team of four of us ready to help you.

I've also been an influencer over on the internets on primarily Instagram and YouTube for the last, I can't believe it, seven plus years.

I also own a fashion and accessories brand called Salasta the Label and I'm obviously also a podcast host, so welcome, I'm so excited to have you as part of the Embody Radio family.

I love to know how you found the show and how you came to be part of our squad and if you are a long time listener, welcome back, I love having you here.

So today's episode, it's probably an unconventional topic from what you would think we would have on the show, but we love science of all kinds here, we love nerding out of all kinds here, and today we're actually focusing a lot on male factor fertility.

Now I know you're probably thinking, Emily, you have a primary female listenership, what are you doing? And believe me, I thought about that as well, but this is not just a women's issue and also hello.

Sure, some of you out there have partners, have family members that are men, have friends that are men, that this is going to be really, really relevant to and fertility is not just a men's issue and our guests today really changed my own mind about that.

So Cali Cataly is a former health care consultant at Oliver Wyman in Toronto and studied health care and public policy at Harvard University, where he received a full scholarship and graduated with distinction.

Calid has previously worked at the World Economic Forum in Geneva, where he had his work on the future of entrepreneurship published at Davos.

He's also the owner and founder of Legacy, so Legacy is a digital first fertility clinic focused on male factor fertility. Legacy empowers men with the ability to improve tests or freeze their sperm at home.

Yeah, at home, without needing to go to a doctor's office or talk to someone if they don't want to and fun fact, if you're in New York or California, your insurance may reimburse you for using Legacy's product. That's how cool it is.

Now this is where this becomes super important, one in six or one in seven couples is going to face infertility and we talk about fertility as a women's issue as a society, but that's not the case.

For heterosexual couples, it's just as likely for infertility to be coming from the male or the female.

And sperm quality isn't just an indicator of fertility, it's also a major indicator for male health.

So in today's show, we're talking all about male fertility, the construct of masculinity and how it's changing and how we can help and kind of how the male fertility conversation plays into that.

Common causes of male infertility and things that can hurt sperm health, how TRT can actually hurt your sperm health.

And then in typical Embodied Radio fashion, we had a nice pivot into just a human conversation about joy, about kind of the dangers of social media from a psychological perspective and how our guest Khaled just really lives simply through a lens of joy in his life and how he's built that for himself.

And I asked him that specifically because he said that he experiences life through a lens of joy and I was like, dude, I feel like so many people can't say that.

So like tell us your secrets. So we're also in for just a nice human conversation as well.

And before we dive into today's show, I wanted to give a quick shout out to our sponsors over at Cured Nutrition.

You all know how much I love my CBD and hemp based products from Cured.
