The Silent Struggle: Navigating the Emotional and Mental Toll of Fertility with Elizabeth King

In this powerful and eye-opening episode, we sit down with Elizabeth King, a certified fertility coach and founder of the Fertility Coach Academy. Elizabeth dives deep into the emotional and psychological challenges of navigating infertility.

As a Master Certified ICF Life Coach, Birth & Bereavement Doula, and New Parent Educator, she has supported hundreds of women in over 20 countries through every stage of the fertility journey, including natural conception, IVF, miscarriage, early pregnancy PTSD, and postpartum transitions.
