Figuring It Out

Trimester Zero: How WeNatal's Ronit Menashe Got Pregnant Naturally at 42 After Miscarriage — and What the Fertility Industry Isn't Telling You

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.

Love is a marathon not a sprint

It's a common myth and narrative that love hits like fireworks—a single, undeniable lightning bolt moment. But for me, it was a long, often tumultuous journey of heartbreak, self-discovery, and a lot of patience that finally led me to my 'one.' In this episode, I'm getting raw and unfiltered about the decade I spent single and the 'messy growth' it took to finally be ready for the relationship I have now. I'm sharing the real story of meeting my husband, from our first Hinge match to the quiet, profound moments where I realized he was different. I'm diving into: The Myth of Instant Certainty: Why waiting for a 'sign' might be blocking you from the right person. Increasing Your Surface Area for Luck: How getting outside your comfort zone (and your apartment!) creates the serendipity needed for love to find you. Becoming the Right Partner: The hard truths I had to face in therapy about my own 'fake confidence' and how I was actually closing myself off. The Power of Spontaneity: Why I'm learning to trade my 'recovering planner' tendencies for impromptu date nights at cozy hotel bars. Whether you're single and feeling stuck, navigating the anxiety of a new relationship, or years into a marriage, this episode is a reminder that love is a marathon, not a sprint. It's not about the grand gestures; it's about the consistent, ordinary moments where you choose each other repeatedly. I hope my story reminds you that your unique journey is exactly where it's supposed to be. Let's figure it out together.

Why modern relationships are so hard, resolving conflict, creating secure relationships, and how to make it work with Elizabeth Earnshaw (Rerun)

With Valentine's Day on the horizon, I've been thinking a lot about love…not the chemistry sparking lust….but real love. What does it feel like? What makes it last? And how do you maintain your intimate relationships in a modern world. In my wedding speech, I said that love isn't a grand gesture but the actions you take daily. I don't think I'm naturally good in relationships – I put a lot thought and intention into how I communicate and treat my husband and today's guest was so helpful on my journey to being ready to meet my person. So I wanted to bring you back to this conversation from 2021 with Licensed marriage and family therapist and clinical fellow of the america association of marriage & family therapy AND founder of A Better Life Therapy - Elizabeth Earnshaw.

New year, new priorities! A soft landing into 2026 goal setting

In this solo episode, I'm sharing a how I'm taking a softer, more intentional start to 2026. After taking some time to rest, recharge, and step away from the pressure of productivity, I reflect on why slowing down has become essential for me. I talk about letting go of the urgency to reinvent myself overnight, embracing a gentler approach to goal-setting, and redefining what it means to succeed this year. I also share my personal framework for setting goals—from identifying core life pillars (health, relationships, and passion) to choosing guiding words for the year like patience, fun, and excellence. This episode is an invitation to reflect, realign, and build a year that feels right for you. If you're feeling behind, uncertain, or simply craving a slower, more intentional reset, this episode is your reminder that there's no wrong timeline—just a meaningful place to begin.

The toxin talk we should be having and an approach to low-tox beyond your IG feed with Lara Adler

Welcome back to the show. Today, we're diving into a topic that has become increasingly noisy online: environmental chemicals, toxicity, and what it truly means to support our long-term health. To help ground this conversation in evidence and context rather than fear and marketing, I'm joined by Lara Adler, an environmental health educator and advocate who has spent the last 14 years deep in the research behind environmental exposures and public health. In this episode, we unpack the widening gap between individualized "wellness culture" and the larger systemic issues — like air and water quality — that have the biggest impact on communities across the country. We discuss why certain health narratives online have "lost the plot," how privilege shapes access to wellness solutions, and what practical, meaningful actions each of us can take at home without falling into anxiety or perfectionism. This conversation brings nuance back into a space that desperately needs it — and I think you'll leave feeling informed, empowered, and focused on what truly matters.
