Summary

Lo is joined by fertility expert and registered dietitian Rachael Swanson, often referred to as the “fertility goddess,” for a conversation that challenges what we think we know about reproductive health—and why so many people are being told they’re “fine” when they’re not.

From the quiet reality of miscarriage to the rise in hormone imbalances, Lo and Rachael unpack the overlooked factors impacting fertility today—from microplastics and environmental toxins to gut health, oral microbiomes, and the daily habits that may be working against us. This episode goes beyond pregnancy, exploring what these trends reveal about our overall health—and why so many symptoms are dismissed or misdiagnosed for years.

With a science-backed, no-BS approach, Rachael shares the key shifts that can help you better understand your body, advocate for your health, and take control of your future—whether you’re trying to conceive or simply trying to feel better in your own skin.
