Life Beyond Infertility

Rita Utterback: Endo and Functional Nutrition

#036: Rita Utterback - Helping Women Heal Chronic Bloat and Painful Periods Without Restrictive Diets
Rita's struggles with endometriosis + chronic digestive issues are WHY she became a functional nutritionist + women's health + wellness coach. She knows first hand how frustrating it can be to go to the doctor to get answers, just to be told your labs are "nOrMAL" even though you have a plethora of symptoms (like a crap ton of food sensitivities)...
And be given a bandaid solution to manage a life-long chronic illness + chronic gut issues + be sent on your way...
Through exploring a more functional approach plus working with a functional practitioner, she was able to get to root cause of my symptoms so that she could work towards healing.
Her journey to healing is what inspired her to help other women with chronic illnesses, autoimmunity, digestive issues + hormonal imbalances find healing because we all deserve to feel like our most radiant selves!

Lana Manikowski - Life After Infertility Coach and Childless Not by Choice Advocate

#035: Lana Manikowski - Life After Infertility Coach and Childless Not by Choice Advocate
After 7 years of fertility treatments and a lifetime of dreaming of motherhood, Lana Manikowski faced the realization that she would not be a mom. The years that followed were full of loneliness, self-judgement and confusion about living a childless life.
Then she discovered Life Coaching and everything changed. Through the powerful coaching tools she learned, she transformed every area of her life. That’s when she knew she had to become a Coach herself so she could bring those tools to all the women struggling with infertility and failed IVF.
Just because life didn’t turn out the way we always thought it would doesn’t mean we’re destined to live a mediocre life.

Today, I'm excited to have Rachel Van Thyn as my guest. Rachel is a board-certified chaplain and chaplain educator, who has been providing emotional and spiritual support to individuals and couples going through fertility struggles. She also has a personal experience with IVF, which she went through during the COVID-19 pandemic while working as a front-line hospital worker in one of the hardest-hit cities.
