Podcasts about Trimester

This week we're sitting down with Ronit Menashe and Vida Delrahim — the founders of WeNatal — for a conversation that needs to be had. Both Ronit and Vida went through miscarriages around the same time, and what they discovered through their own fertility journeys completely changed how they think about women's health, men's health, and the entire fertility industry.If you've ever felt like fertility was something only your body was responsible for figuring out — or you've been handed a prenatal at your OB's office without anyone explaining what's actually in it — this episode is for you.Here's what we get into:Ronit and Vida's personal fertility journeys and the moment they realized this was being put all on womenWhy men are 50% of the fertility equation — and barely in the conversationWhat everyday habits are quietly wrecking male fertilityWhy most prenatals are under-dosed or full of low-quality ingredients (and what to actually look for)The role of metabolic health, stress, and nervous system regulation in conceptionThe fertility red flags people have normalizedTheir most unpopular hot takes — including whether women are being gaslit about their symptomsWhat they want every woman feeling hopeless in her fertility journey to hearOffer exclusively for the GUT TALK community:Start your WeNatal routine today by going to wenatal.com/GUTTALK and receive a free Rest+Digest Magnesium supplement ($40 value) with your first prenatal subscription.Where to find WeNatal:Website: wenatal.com/GUTTALKInstagramConnect with us:If this conversation hit something for you, come tell us in the DMs. Find us on Instagram @guttalkpodcast.

What if the "final frontier" of fertility care is not IVF technology, but the aging ovary itself? Can science help improve egg quality, mitochondrial function, and reproductive lifespan? And how do patients sort through what is proven, what is promising, and what is still very much in the "ask your doctor before you try this" category? In this episode of Brave & Curious, Dr. Lora Shahine welcomes reproductive endocrinologist Dr. Roohi Jeelani for a fascinating conversation about ovarian rejuvenation, age-related fertility decline, and the future of fertility treatment.  Together, they discuss why age remains one of the biggest factors in IVF success, how egg quality changes over time, and why topics like oxidative stress, mitochondrial health, inflammation, and lifestyle optimization are becoming such important parts of the fertility conversation. In this episode you'll hear: [1:07] Meet Dr. Roohi Jeelani [2:32] Age and fertility [4:23] Egg quality basics [8:06] Sleep and fertility [9:35] Stress and cortisol [14:58] Movement and PCOS [16:54] Nutrition for fertility [18:51] Trimester zero prep: Small, sustainable changes [29:25] CoQ10, Inositol, Melatonin [35:38] NAD and egg quality [43:56] GLP-1 fertility questions [47:22] Peptides and PRP [55:33] Ovarian rejuvenation research [1:01:04] Future fertility medicine Resources mentioned:  onto.health @roohijeelanimd on Instagram | LinkedIn @onto-health-co on LinkedIn Your Leggings Could be Causing Infertility? with Dr. Lora Shahine on YouTube Can CoQ10 Improve Egg Quality and Sperm Health for TTC? with Dr. Lora Shahine on YouTube Does Growth Hormone Improve IVF Outcomes? with Dr. Lora Shahine on YouTube Dr. Shahine's Weekly Newsletter on Fertility News and Recommendations Follow @drlorashahine Instagram | YouTube | Tiktok | Her Books Join the Learn at Pinnacle app to earn FREE CE Credit for listening to this episode!

In dieser Folge nehme ich dich mit in ein Thema, das viele Schwangere (und ehrlich gesagt auch viele im Umfeld) noch immer falsch einschätzen: Sport & Bewegung in der Schwangerschaft.Du hörst, warum die eigentliche Frage nicht „Darf ich das?“ ist,  sondern: Wie bewege ich mich so, dass es mich und mein Baby unterstützt? Und wie findest du ein Trainingspensum, das evidenzbasiert ist, aber gleichzeitig zu deinem Körper, deinem Trimester und deinen Symptomen passt.Wir sprechen über die Datenlage zu 150 Minuten moderater Aktivität pro Woche, was „moderat“ in der Praxis wirklich heißt (Spoiler: nicht über eine fixe Pulszahl), welche Vorteile Bewegung auf Stoffwechsel, Blutdruck, Rücken, Psyche und sogar den Geburtsverlauf haben kann – und welche Warnzeichen du ernst nehmen solltest.Du erfährst unter anderem:warum Bewegung in einer unkomplizierten Schwangerschaft sicher ist – und keine höheren Risiken für Fehlgeburt, Frühgeburt oder niedriges Geburtsgewicht zeigtwelche Effekte Studien zeigen auf Schwangerschaftsdiabetes, Hypertonie und Präeklampsie (inkl. Größenordnung der Risikoreduktion)warum Sport nicht primär ein Tool für „Gewichtskontrolle“ ist und was stattdessen der sinnvollere Fokus istwelche Mischung aus Ausdauer + Krafttraining sich bewährt und warum beides unterschiedliche Vorteile hatwie du „moderat“ alltagstauglich einordnest (Talk-Test, Erschöpfung am Folgetag, Symptome als Feedback)welche Anpassungen im Krafttraining wichtig sind (Atmung, Core/„hug the baby“, keine Pressatmung, Technik vor Gewicht)warum Alltagsbewegung (Spaziergänge, Treppen, NEAT) oft unterschätzt wirdwelche Sportarten eher kritisch sind (Sturz-/Kontaktrisiko, Überhitzung, Tauchen) und warumwelche Warnzeichen bedeuten: bitte Training stoppen und ärztlich abklären (z. B. Blutungen, Fruchtwasserabgang, starke Atemnot/Brustschmerz, schmerzhafte Kontraktionen)Für dich, wenn du…schwanger bist (oder schwanger werden möchtest) und Klarheit willst, was wirklich empfohlen wirddich zwischen „Ich will mich nicht schonen“ und „Ich will nichts riskieren“ wiederfindestein Trainingssetup suchst, das evidenzbasiert ist, aber ohne Leistungsdruck und DogmenHat dir die Folge geholfen?

You were never meant to live constantly empty.In this episode, we're closing out Trimester 1 of Abundance Unlocked by talking about what it truly means to live from overflow instead of exhaustion.If you've been feeling drained, overextended, emotionally tired, or spiritually disconnected, this conversation will help you reconnect with the true source of abundance.Because God didn't call you to barely survive life.He called you to overflow.

In this episode, I'm sharing a pregnancy update from the first half of my second trimester, including how I've been feeling physically and emotionally, what's been going on lately, and some of the biggest moments so far. I'm also taking you behind the scenes of finding out the gender, planning the gender reveal, and what was going through my mind before and after that special moment. If you're pregnant, in your second trimester, or just love following along with real and honest motherhood and pregnancy conversations, this is a fun episode to listen to.

In dieser sehr persönlichen Folge des Bits and Bobs Brunch Clubs teile ich etwas, das mein Leben gerade komplett verändert: Ich bin schwanger. Ich nehme euch mit in die letzten Monate – von den ersten Wochen, in denen diese Nachricht noch ganz in unserer privaten Bubble war, bis zu dem Moment, in dem es sich jetzt einfach richtig anfühlt, sie mit euch zu teilen. Es geht um diese besondere Mischung aus Vorfreude, Dankbarkeit und auch Überforderung, die so eine Schwangerschaft mit sich bringt. Ich spreche darüber, wie sich mein Alltag verändert hat, warum das erste Trimester mich mehr gefordert hat als erwartet und welche Learnings ich daraus mitnehme – vor allem rund um Energie, Grenzen und Tempo. Außerdem teile ich meine Gedanken zu einem Thema, das mich schon lange beschäftigt: Unternehmertum und Familiengründung. Wie schafft man es, beides zu vereinen? Welche Entscheidungen wir als Paar getroffen haben, wie ich mein Business darauf vorbereitet habe und warum ich bewusst Raum für diese neue Lebensphase schaffen möchte. Und ja – ich verrate euch auch, was wir erwarten. Eine ehrliche, emotionale Folge über Veränderung, Vertrauen und die wohl spannendste Reise meines Lebens.

In dieser Folge nehme ich dich mit in ein Thema, bei dem es eine riesige Gap gibt zwischen dem, was wir aus der Forschung wissen – und dem, was bei schwangeren Frauen im Alltag wirklich ankommt: Blutzucker in der Schwangerschaft.Wir sprechen darüber, warum „Das Baby bekommt schon, was es braucht“ so pauschal nicht stimmt – und warum Blutzuckerspitzen (und damit Insulinspitzen) nicht nur dein Wohlbefinden beeinflussen, sondern auch langfristig den Stoffwechsel deines Babys prägen können.Du bekommst in dieser Episode einen evidenzbasierten Überblick über die gängigen Tests auf Schwangerschaftsdiabetes (inkl. OGTT) und warum ich kontinuierliche Glukosemessung (CGM) im Alltag oft als extrem hilfreiches Tool erlebe – auch dann, wenn du keinen Schwangerschaftsdiabetes hast.Du erfährst unter anderem:warum Blutzuckerregulation schon im Kinderwunsch relevant sein kann (Stichwort: Insulinresistenz, Eisprung, Progesteron)was sich im 1., 2. und 3. Trimester verändert und warum Blutzuckerspitzen ab dem 2. Trimester besonders relevant werdenSchwangerschaftsdiabetes: was der OGTT misst, wo seine Fallstricke liegen (z. B. 50 g vs. 75 g, falsch-positive Ergebnisse, Voraussetzungen für eine sinnvolle Testung)warum ein CGM dir echte Alltagsdaten liefert (inkl. Nüchternwerte, Mahlzeitenreaktionen, Trends – statt nur Momentaufnahmen)welche Zucker-Mythen du getrost loslassen kannst (z. B. „Kohlenhydrate sind gleich Kohlenhydrate“)wie du deine beste Strategie im Alltag findest: Reihenfolge beim Essen, kluge Kombination von Makros, Protein-Fokus, Spaziergang nach dem Essen, Muskelmasse als „Glukose-Speicher“was es mit der Luven-Ernährung auf sich hat (Insulin vs. Prostaglandine & Muttermundreifung) und wie ich das einordneMythus Datteln vor der Geburt: was die Datenlage hergibt und wo ich den Trade-off sehe (Zuckermenge vs. möglicher Effekt)Für dich, wenn du…schwanger bist oder gerade schwanger werden möchtestdich nicht mit „passt schon“ zufriedengeben willst, sondern informierte Entscheidungen treffen möchtestverstehen willst, wie du Blutzuckerspitzen reduzierst – ohne in Dogmen oder Angst zu rutschenWenn dir die Folge geholfen hat, freue ich mich riesig, wenn du sie teilst und mir eine Bewertung bei Spotify oder Apple Podcasts dalässt – das ist das größte Geschenk, das du mir zurückgeben kannst.Charlotte ist approbierte Ärztin, Life Coach und staatlich geprüfte Ernährungsberaterin.

There’s a new TikTok wellness trend doing the rounds: so-called 'Trimester Zero'. But experts warn online fertility advice can be exploitative and is creating unnecessary pressure and anxiety among people trying to conceive.

#343: Rösch und Ron sind zurück!

In this episode of Figuring It Out, I sit down with Ronit Menashe — co-founder of WeNatal, former and functional medicine advocate — for an honest and empowering conversation about fertility, egg quality, and preconception health. Ronit opens up about her own heartbreaking experience: a missed miscarriage at 12 weeks, a doctor who told her it was "just her age," and the moment she decided to stop listening to the conventional narrative and start doing the research herself. What she found changed everything — and ultimately led to her conceiving naturally at 42, without IVF, and later co-founding WeNatal, a science-backed prenatal supplement line that has now supported over 30,000 families.   In this episode, we cover: •What "trimester zero" is and why it may be the most important phase of your fertility journey •The truth about egg quality vs. egg quantity — and what you can actually control •Why male fertility is half the equation and almost always overlooked •The fertility blockers hiding in your home (and how to remove them without overhauling your life) •Why the $20 billion fertility industry may not be incentivized to tell you about diet and lifestyle •How to evaluate prenatal supplements — what to look for, what to avoid, and why not all prenatals are created equal •The role of choline, CoQ10, methyl folate, and mitochondrial health in egg quality •How to get your partner on board with preconception preparation •The mindset shift that helped Ronit take three months off from trying — and why it worked Whether you are actively trying to conceive, recovering from a loss, navigating IVF, or simply want to understand your reproductive health more deeply, I know this conversation will leave you feeling informed, empowered, and far less alone.   Resources mentioned: •WeNatal prenatal supplements: wenatal.com •Exclusive offer for Figuring It Out listeners — free magnesium with any subscription: wenatal.com/figuringitout •Dr. Natalie Crawford's book: The Fertility Formula •EWG (Environmental Working Group) product database: ewg.org   Connect with Ronit: @we_natal Ronit's Instagram WeNatal's Website   Connect with me:  Connect with me on Instagram  ShopMy - What I'm Loving Lately   Email: Hailey@hailey-miller.com

What happens when life shifts overnight—and you're expected to show up at work like nothing changed? In this episode of Daily Influence, Gregg-Brooke Koleno sits down with Barbara Palmer, founder of Your 4th Trimester and “Top Broad” at Broad Perspective Consulting, to talk about one of the most overlooked leadership transitions in modern work: returning after parental leave. With more than 30 years of experience across corporate culture, leadership, marketing, and professional development, Barbara supports working parents (and the companies that employ them) through the real-world “oh sh*t” moments—when priorities change, boundaries get tested, and confidence needs a reset. Barbara shares practical strategies that help new parents (and honestly… anyone) protect their time, reduce overwhelm, and show up with clarity—like her simple but powerful practice of blocking the last hour of the workday to close loops and set tomorrow up for success. They also explore how responsible influence shows up through boundary-setting, communication with managers, and creating cultures that truly support parents—not just in policy, but in practice. You'll also hear how Barbara's three-year nomad journey—living month-to-month in communities across the country—has deepened her beliefs about curiosity, kindness, belonging, and leadership without judgment. And she leaves listeners with her favorite two words for navigating hard seasons: “for now.” Connect with Barbara: Instagram: @topbroad LinkedIn: Barbara Palmer Website: broadperspectiveconsulting.com (including Your 4th Trimester + “Wisdom for Your Oh Sh*t Moments”)

The fourth trimester is real, intense, and wildly under-discussed. Christin, Joyce, and Chloe sit down for an honest conversation about the first 12 weeks after birth. What's happening in the body, why "being cleared at six weeks" is not the same as being fully healed, and how physical recovery, nutrition, nervous system regulation, identity shifts, and societal pressure all collide at once. They unpack why postpartum isn't a bounce-back phase, how under-eating and rushing recovery can backfire, and what slowing down, deep nourishment, and rebuilding really look like in practice. The conversation also dives into cultural gaps in postpartum care, the impact of social media expectations, and why community, support, and asking for help matter more than doing it all yourself. This one is for new moms, seasoned moms, and anyone supporting someone through the fourth trimester who wants real talk, not platitudes (and permission to take their time).

#332: Auf geht's ins zweite Trimester!

#331: Ich hätte nie gedacht, so einen Post schreiben zu müssen

Christian Berkels Familiengeschichte reicht weit zurück, sie ist voller Kapriolen, Katastrophen und Anekdoten und hätte das Zeug zum Fernseh-Mehrteiler, neudeutsch: das Zeug zur Netflix-Serie. Aber wozu gucken, wenn man sich all die Bilder und Szenen auch selbst erschaffen kann. Was durchaus funktioniert, zumal inzwischen drei Romane erschienen sind, die starke autobiografische Züge tragen. Und alle Bestseller wurden. "Der Apfelbaum", "Ada" und jetzt "Sputnik". Der 1957 geborene Berliner wusste früh, dass er als Schauspieler leben müsste, eine Alternative schien es nie gegeben zu haben. Haken wir gleich mal nach. Mit 14 geht der Junge für ein Trimester nach Paris, die Sprache liebt er, die Stadt, das Land, und so bleibt Berkel länger als geplant, kehrt nach zwei Jahren zurück und widmet sich mit voller Energie dem Theater und immer auch der Arbeit vor der Kamera - eine Sache, auf die er sich über all die Jahrzehnte zuverlässig und immer erfolgreich verlassen konnte. Da geht es ihm wie seiner Frau und Mutter der Söhne, Andrea Sawatzki, ebenfalls erfolgreiche Schauspielerin, ebenfalls schon mehrfache Bestsellerautorin. Uns würde interessieren, wo es sich im Hause Berkel/Sawatzki am besten schreiben lässt - im - Arbeitszimmer? Auf der Couch mit dem Laptop? Und im Sommer - auf dem Dach?

Pregnancy brings so many changes, and your intimate life is one of them, but it doesn't have to disappear for nine months. In this episode, I'm answering real listener questions about sex during pregnancy, including what's safe, what feels comfortable, and how to stay emotionally and physically connected through every trimester. We'll talk about shifting desire, body image, and practical ways to communicate and adapt as your body changes. My goal is to help you and your partner approach this season with curiosity, confidence, and closeness instead of fear or frustration. You'll walk away feeling more at ease, better informed, and equipped with real strategies to keep intimacy thriving during every stage of pregnancy. Remember to consult with your healthcare provider about any concerns related to intimacy during pregnancy. Every pregnancy is unique, and individual medical guidance is important.  

I used to assume conception began at the first sign of pregnancy — until I learned about Trimester Zero. The 100-day window before conception may be the most powerful period in shaping your baby's lifelong health — and your own. In this minisode, I sit down with Vida Delrahim and Ronit Menashe, co-founders of WeNatal, to unpack what science now calls the pre-pregnancy trimester. We talk about how both women and men can dramatically influence fertility and genetics before conception through nutrition, lifestyle, and the health of one mighty organelle — the mitochondria.This episode features highlights from our full conversation, which premiered August 12th, 2025. Watch the full episode here → https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5gztCFH603g About the guests:After experiencing miscarriages just a week apart, best friends Vida and Ronit were devastated — and confused. Both were healthy, both on prenatal vitamins, and yet doctors dismissed their losses as “random” or “age-related.” They partnered with leading experts, pored over research, and created a science-backed prenatal system for both women and men. What began as a personal mission has grown into WeNatal — a movement giving couples the knowledge, tools, and products to support conception, pregnancy, and the lifelong health of future generations. *** Subscribe to The Neuro Experience for more conversations at the intersection of brain science and performance.
