Fertility Starts Within: Why Energy, Sleep, And Stress Management Matter Most with Kirsten Karchmer
Description
“A woman who has fully realized her power and knows how to care for herself and her mind is not working against her— that is somebody you don't want to mess with.” —Kirsten Karchmer
The fertility conversation is louder than ever, yet clarity feels harder to find. Advice is everywhere, but most of it ignores how tired, overwhelmed, and disconnected many bodies actually are. This episode slows the noise and brings the focus back to what truly drives reproductive health.
We sit down with Kirsten Karchmer, founder of Conceivable and one of the first board-certified reproductive acupuncturists in North America. After treating more than 10,000 fertility patients and navigating her own health journey, Kirsten shares how energy, stress, digestion, and daily habits shape fertility far more than quick fixes ever could.
Press play to hear a refreshing, honest take on fertility, hormones, and whole-body health that puts power back where it belongs.
In this episode, we cover:
- Why fertility struggles are increasing for both women and men
- How energy, stress, and over-exercising impact hormones and cycles
- The real role of diet, sleep, and digestion in reproductive health
- Why most fertility advice fails without personalization
- How AI is being used to make fertility care more accessible and affordable
- When hormone therapy and medical interventions actually make sense
- How menstrual cycles reveal deeper health patterns beyond fertility
