The Modules: knowledge is power

MODULE 1: Fabulous Foods for Fertility – Food can have an incredibly positive impact on your health and your fertility. In this module you'll learn what to eat, what to avoid, how to structure your meals, and how to maintain this way of eating for life. With this module you'll get a 7 day fertility friendly meal plan and fertility nutrients. check list.

MODULE 2: A Thriving Gut for Fertility - Your gut does much more than just digest, absorb, and excrete food. Your gut influences the health of every system in your body, including your reproductive system. In this module we’ll look at the importance of understanding and supporting your gut for fertility, symptoms to look out for, and how you can assess the health of your gut.

 

MODULE 3: Optimising Your Hormonal Health & Vaginal Microbiome - this module is a deep dive into your hormonal health with a spotlight on the thyroid, sex hormone function, fertility tracking, and vaginal health, and most importantly how you can support these areas for a healthy conception, pregnancy, and baby.
 

MODULE 4: Supplements for Fertility - Supplements are an area that can be quite confusing and complex. Many of the people I work with come to me with a shopping list of supplements they are taking which can sometimes be doing them more harm than good. So when it comes to fertility, should we be supplementing at all, and are there any particular nutrients that are better to supplement than others? This module will cover all of this and more, plus you'll also get a supplement discount so you can save on the supplements you are taking.

 

MODULE 5: Optimising Male Fertility - When it comes to fertility there is a lot of focus on the female side. But we know it takes two to make a baby, so sperm health is equally significant. In 30-40% of cases the cause of infertility can be male factor, so it is important you both work on this. In this module we’ll be looking at testing for male fertility, lifestyle factors and how they affect sperm health, and nutrition for male fertility to help those swimmers swim!

 

MODULE 6: Fertile Mind & Fertile Lifestyle - Your lifestyle is equally important when it comes to supporting your fertility. We'll cover sleep hygiene, stress management, and the importance of self care. We also look at the environment you are living in, and how it might be affecting your fertility. We’ll uncover the toxins that could be disrupting your hormones and sabotaging egg and sperm health, and what you can do about it by following some simple and easy changes.

Meet the Team

Julia Young

Registered Nutritional Therapist & Fertility Specialist

Hi, I’m Julia, a BANT Registered Nutritional Therapist specialising in fertility. I help couples struggling to conceive to realise their dream of having a family. Having gone through fertility struggles myself, I am passionate about supporting couples and women with their fertility and hormonal issues. I’ve been there, and I know what it feels like to struggle to achieve what you really want in life. I was diagnosed with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and suffered from amenorrhea (absent periods) for 7 years, which meant that we were unable to conceive naturally. After several rounds of fertility treatment and a miscarriage we were finally blessed with two boys, one via IUI and one via IVF. However, it was only after discovering that nutrition, lifestyle, and supplements could impact my health that to my amazement my periods returned. This inspired me to train as a registered nutritional therapist and to go on to help others struggling to conceive. One of the best things about my job is when I hear news from a client telling me they are pregnant; it shows the transformation that can happen when people make changes to their diet and lifestyle.

Maria McMaster Howells

Qualified Personal Trainer & Pre & Post Natal Trainer

Hello, my name is Maria, I am a qualified personal trainer and a pre and post natal trainer. I also have a BSc and a Masters degree in Psychology, a black belt in karate and have been on numerous sports teams in my life including touch rugby and cricket teams. I have a real interest in helping and supporting others; I love personal training and being active and also very much want to support those on their fertility journey, so I have combined both passions and now love training my Fitness Fertility clients. I have had my own fertility struggles, being diagnosed with PCOS after having years of anovulatory cycles, bad skin, migraines, pain and mood concerns. I am now lucky enough to have two beautiful sons after fertility treatment with clomid but unfortunately experienced pregnancy loss in between both pregnancies. I truly believe that one of the things that helped me prepare for treatment, both mentally and physically was being active. I ensured I was training in a way that was helpful for PCOS, kept my BMI within the healthy range and used my long runs and gym sessions to really work on my mental health. The fertility journey can be unbelievably stressful but for me, being active played a huge role in helping me through it. I am very excited to use what I know to help others grow their own family.
