Welcome to The Fertility Podcast. This episode is something a little different and a little special. I've always used the podcast as a way to process, reflect, and hopefully offer support to you wherever you are on your fertility journey. But in this episode, we're exploring how poetry can become a powerful emotional outlet especially when words are hard to find.I'm joined by the brilliant perinatal psychologist Julianne Boutaleb (you might know her as @parenthoodinmind on Instagram), who offers her clinical and deeply human insights into fertility trauma, identity loss, and psychological support. You'll also be hearing the beginnings of a heartfelt mini-series inspired by a listener named Stacy, who sent me a set of poems that absolutely floored me.This episode is part one of a three-part poetry series and I would love to know what you think.Here's what we covered in this episode:What the “reproductive story” is and how infertility shatters itThe emotional symptoms of fertility trauma, including avoidance and identity lossThe value of early psychological support and how to tailor it to where you are in your journeyHow poetry can provide safety, validation, and emotional releaseWhy Julianne and Stacey both use poetry to process their experiencesA beautiful live reading of Julianne's original poems: Unrequited and Waiting and TryingHow putting pen to paper might just help you feel seen—and less aloneThank you to Julianne and Stacy and you'll hear more from Stacy and her poems in the next two episodes so make sure you've subscribed. Julianne's voice always grounds me, and her words in this episode are powerful. Stacy's poems will be featured in our next episodes, and I can't wait for you to hear them. Whether you're a poet or not, I hope this gives you permission to feel, to reflect, and to find your own release.Let's Stay Connected

What happens when your world feels like Groundhog Day?In this episode, Devin — a husband, leader, and high-functioning achiever — shares his journey from emotional numbness, alcohol patterns, and resistance to clarity, connection, and self-trust. After witnessing his wife's transformation through Enfold, Devin knew there was something powerful waiting for him too. But fear, avoidance, and identity in work kept him circling the edges. Three years later, everything aligned and Devin knew it was the right timing.What followed was a homecoming through medicine, an unexpected bond with a group of men walking similar paths, and a newfound capacity to sit with whatever life brings and observe it — instead of being consumed by it.Devin's story is for anyone who feels stuck and spiritually restless — quietly wondering if there's more to life than just making it through.In This Episode, We Explore:Why Devin resisted the call to healing — and what finally opened him to the journeyHow workaholism and alcohol masked deeper woundsWhat made the all-men's cohort feel safe, relatable, and profoundly healingThe power of group healing for men navigating shame, addiction, and identityWhat shifted in Devin's sense of purpose, presence, and connectionHow the Enfold experience continues to unfold months later — through brotherhood, integration, and inner peace

Jaime Albright Henighan shares her family's journey after two of her sons, Joshua and Jorden, were diagnosed with a rare genetic kidney disease called APOL1-mediated FSGS (Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis).   Jaime's story highlights the importance of early detection, education, and advocacy for families navigating this challenging condition. She discusses her partnership with Nephcure, a patient advocacy organization, and her mission to raise awareness about FSGS, especially among individuals of West African descent, who are at higher risk due to the APOL1 gene mutation.   Topics Covered: What is FSGS?: Understanding APOL1-mediated FSGS and its impact on kidney health. The Family's Journey: How high blood pressure led to Joshua's diagnosis, and the shock of discovering Jorden had the same condition. The Role of Genetics: Why individuals of West African descent are at greater risk and the importance of genetic awareness. Early Detection: How identifying symptoms early has helped Jaime's sons manage their health. Advocacy and Education: Jaime's work with Nephcure and her efforts to raise awareness globally, including in Ghana. Parenting Through Challenges: Jaime's emotional journey as a mother and her advice for other parents navigating rare diseases.   Key Moments: Jaime explains how her family discovered FSGS and the challenges they faced in obtaining a diagnosis. Insights into the genetic factors behind APOL1-mediated FSGS and its prevalence in specific populations. Advocacy efforts to educate families and healthcare providers about the disease.   Guest Bio: Jaime is a wife and mother of six. Her family resides in Alpharetta, GA. She is also a Forensic Interviewer and Podcast Producer at Tenderfoot TV. In 2021, her seemingly healthy 17 year old son, Joshua, was randomly diagnosed with high blood pressure. This led to additional testing and a diagnosis of Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), a rare genetic kidney disease. Later that year, her 25 year old son, Jorden, was also diagnosed with FSGS. This was shocking to the Albright Henighan family. How could they be at high risk of a disease that they had never heard of? They connected with Nephcure, a patient advocacy organization, for support and resources. They learned that 1 in 8 people of West African descent are at risk of APOL1 mediated FSGS due to a genetic mutation. Thanks to early detection, her sons are stable today but this is a rare outcome for FSGS patients due to a lack of education and barriers in the medical community. They decided to share their story across the United States and even in Ghana. Their goal is to educate and empower others. If caught early, there are medical interventions and clinical research trials that can save native kidneys and lives. There is hope for FSGS patients.   Resources Mentioned: Nephcure Kidney International: Advocacy and support for families affected by kidney diseases.

As we celebrate Women's History Month and International Women's Day, we're diving deep into the stories of women in the Bible—women with broken pasts, difficult circumstances, and unlikely beginnings, yet God still chose them to do His kingdom work. From Mary Magdalene to Rahab, their transformations remind us that no one is beyond God's grace.But this isn't just about them—it's about us, too. I get real and vulnerable as I share two personal testimonies of how God's protection covered me in ways I can't explain: the time one of my poor choices left me stranded miles away from home and had to hitchhike and the terrifying moment when my husband and I were saved from what could have been a deadly car accident. These experiences remind me that even with my own broken past and poor decisions, God is using me to share His word and bring others closer to Him.Walking the narrow road isn't easy, but it's necessary. In this episode, we're unpacking:How God redeems and transforms lives, no matter where we've beenWhy perseverance and endurance are essential for our faith journeyHow to stay aligned with God's will, even when life tries to pull you off coursePractical ways to find your way back when you feel lost or under attackNo matter your past, no matter your struggles, God's grace is bigger. His love is relentless. And He is calling YOU higher. Tune in for some encouragement, biblical wisdom, and a reminder that God is always moving in your life—even in the moments when you least expect it.

From classical concertos to jazz and rock & roll, from symphonic masterpieces to the most experimental compositions of living composers, Haas has championed, commissioned, unearthed and celebrated music for his instrument, becoming, as Ovation magazine hailed him, "The Paganini of the timpani."His concerts on the world's most prestigious musical stages and his ground-breaking recordings have delighted critics and listeners on both sides of the ocean. The New York Times wrote, "Wherever one finds a percussion instrument waiting to be rubbed, shook, struck or strummed, [Haas] is probably nearby, ready to fulfill his duties with consummate expertise... he is a masterful young percussionist."Most recently, Haas has garnered widespread praise and attention for his performances of Philip Glass' Concerto Fantasy for Two Timpanists and Orchestra, a piece conceived by Haas and completed because of his quest to spotlight the timpani. The Concerto Fantasy features not only two timpanists, but also 14 timpani, all placed downstage in front of the orchestra. In 2000, Haas performed the world premiere of the piece with the American Symphony, and he has subsequently performed it at Carnegie Hall and in Phoenix, New Jersey, Baltimore, Pasadena, Long Beach (California), St. Louis and Mexico City. Haas also performed the European premiere with the BBC Symphony in London, the world premiere of a chamber orchestra version with the Iris Chamber Orchestra in Memphis, the Czechoslovakian premiere with the Prague Symphony Orchestra at the International Music Prague Spring Festival, the Norwegian premiere with the Bergen Philharmonic, and he will perform the Australian premiere with the Sydney Symphony and the Turkish premiere with the Istanbul Philharmonic.Haas' successful efforts to expand the timpani repertoire have led him to commission and premiere more than 25 works by composers in addition to Philip Glass such as Stephen Albert, Marius Constant, Irwin Bazelon, Eric Ewazen, Thomas Hamilton, Robert Hall Lewis, Jean Piche, Karlheinz Stockhausen, Andrew Thomas, and many others.Haas built the world's largest timpani and debuted it in 2003 at the Aspen Music Festival. This unprecendented, incredible instrument -- nearly 6' wide and nearly 4' tall – beats the world's second-largest timpani — a 48-incher used by Amsterdam's Concertgebouw Orchestra — by almost half.Haas' recordings include the trail-blazing 18th Century Concertos for Timpani and Orchestra and Johnny H. and the Prisoners of Swing, both on Sunset Records. The latter was named for his jazz group and features innovative renderings of jazz compositions featuring "hot timpani" in front of a full jazz ensemble. His rediscovery of Duke Ellington's brilliant composition for jazz timpani, "Tympaturbably Blue," is included on this recording, as are other jazz standards played on a set of ten kettledrums.Demonstrating a remarkable versatility as a musician, Haas has performed and recorded with Emerson, Lake and Palmer, played on the Grammy Award-winning recording Zappa's Universe, recorded with Aerosmith, Michael Bolton, Black Sabbath, and explored heavy metal with his rock group Clozshave.The rarest of modern virtuosi, Haas embarked on his career as a solo timpanist by performing the only solo timpani recital ever presented at Carnegie Recital Hall in 1980. As an orchestral soloist, he made his debut with the New York Chamber Orchestra under Maxim Shostakovich and his European solo debut with the Bournemouth Sinfonietta. He made his French debut performing Andrez Panufnick's Concerto for Percussion, Timpani and Orchestra with the Orchestra de la Garde Republicaine. He was the soloist in the Druschetsky Concerto for Eight Timpani, Oboe and Orchestra with the Aspen Chamber Orchestra. He has also performed as a solo timpanist for the Distinguished Artists Recital Series at New York's 92nd Street ‘Y' and as a guest artist with the Lincoln Center Chamber Society, the Chamber Music at the ‘Y' Series, and the Newport Chamber Music Festival. He has championed new music by presenting adventuresome programming such as The Music of Frank Zappa, showcasing the music of Edgar Varese and Frank Zappa, under the auspices of Lincoln Center's Great Performers Series.Haas is the principal timpanist of the New York Chamber Orchestra, the Aspen Chamber Orchestra and EOS Ensemble, principal percussionist of the American Symphony Orchestra, and a member of the American Composers Orchestra. He performs with the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra, Mostly Mozart Festival Orchestra, New York Pops, and New Jersey Symphony and has performed and recorded with the New York Philharmonic, the Stuttgart Chamber Orchestra and the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra.A graduate of Washington University in St. Louis, Haas received his Master's Degree from the Juilliard School as a student of Saul Goodman.
