Natural Fertility with Dr. Jane

EPISODE SUMMARY:In this episode, I sit down with Brendan Vermeire, also known as The Holistic Savage, for a powerful conversation on the intersection of metabolic health, mental health, and true healing. We explore why physiology and psychology cannot be separated, how inflammation, toxins, and infections can shape mood and behavior, and where mindset, trauma, and responsibility fit into the healing process. Brendan shares his personal journey, including his experience with suicide, resilience, and why fitness, intuition, and meaning matter just as much as lab work. This episode challenges the idea of chasing endless “root causes” and invites a more integrated, honest approach to healing and longevity.ABOUT DR.

EPISODE SUMMARY:In this episode, Dr. Jane sits down with Dr. Elissa Chambers to unpack the vagus nerve, nervous system regulation, and how all of it connects to fertility. From breathwork and yoga to ear massages and emotional healing, they explore how low vagal tone shows up in digestion, hormones, sleep, and stress and how to build it back up. You’ll also hear how beliefs like “resting makes me lazy” can keep your body stuck in overdrive, and why slowing down is often the hardest but most powerful medicine. They share real patient examples, daily practices, and one-liners you’ll want to write down. If you’re tired of being told to “just relax,” this episode gives you the science and strategy behind why that advice actually matters.ABOUT DR.

EPISODE SUMMARY:In this episode, I walk you through a complex fertility case involving a couple who had “done everything” - IVF, detox protocols, clean living, endless supplements, yet still weren’t making progress. I break down the real reasons they were stuck, including overlooked methylation issues, heavy metal toxicity, microbiome imbalances, and the emotional stress that was impacting their nervous systems. I share how we approached their case differently, what shifted once we had the right data, and how quickly the body can change when you address the actual root causes. If you’ve been spinning your wheels or told to “just keep trying,” this episode will show you what’s possible when fertility care becomes both strategic and deeply personalized.ABOUT DR.
