The Pink Elephants Support Network

00:00 / 22:06

I had the opportunity to talk with Samantha Payne recently at the ‘All About Fertility Expo’ in Sydney recently.

I thought it would be perfect to share our discussion with you and highlight the wonderful support that this network provides.

The Pink Elephants provide much needed empathy, validation and connection to those experiencing miscarriage and early pregnancy loss.

They connect you with other women who have been there and they are there to support you during your time of loss and grief.

Stefanie Valakas Interview

00:00 / 36:39

This week I had the pleasure of interviewing Stefanie Valakas, an Accredited Practising Dietitian & Nutritionist.

We met recently at the inaugral All About Fertility Expo and had so much to discuss, that I thought it would be better to invite Stefanie to the show to talk about her focus on fertility health.

Stefanie is experienced in optimising the diet and lifestyle of women and couples to enhance their fertility and health outcomes, using the latest scientific evidence.

She is particularly interested in utilising the Mediterranean dietary approach to enhancer the fertility of women living with PCOS and looking to nourish their growing families.

Stefanie is also a part of Nutrition Plus, a leading group of dietitians across Australia and New Zealand focused on delivering the very best results in the reproductive health and nutrition space.

When Stefanie isn’t busy helping women and couples in her office or online, she provides expert advice to the media about women’s health nutrition, is involved in research with the University of New South Wales and part of the teaching staff at the University of Sydney helping the next generation of dietitians learn about nutrition!

Mariah Riney is an Oocyte Donor from the USA. She kindly offered to tell her story and give us a little insight into the process in America with the agencies that manage the donations.

Donating oocytes is a huge commitment of time, needles, testing, ultrasounds and a medical procedure to retrieve the oocytes.

Ella Mannix Interview

Ella Mannix Interview

00:00 / 28:51

This week I had the pleasure of interviewing Ella Mannix. She shared her fertility journey with me, how she met her wonderful husband and the decisions that she faced when she realised that her idea of parenting required a different approach to the standard one!

Inspired by her own fertility journey, Ella was keen to use all her research and create Sydney’s first ever Fertility Expo.

Whether you are thinking of having a family in the near future, in the middle of fertility treatment or had not considered your fertility options at all (storing oocytes or sperm perhaps), the expo promises to have something for everyone!

All About Fertility Expo is on Saturday, 17th August 2019.

Alpesh Doshi Interview

00:00 / 33:33

When an Embryologist starts a fertility clinic, you know that this will be a unique experience!

Alpesh is bringing the magic, which is usually behind the scenes in the laboratory, to all his patients.

It is all about the journey and the emotional support.

I have worked with his patients and they are certainly feeling the more personalised approach to treatment.

The future of IVF clinics is happening now at IVF London.

3 Steps to Changing You

16/02/2019Sophia Baseotto

3 Steps to Changing You

00:00 / 13:48

It is mid February and by now 99.9% of the New Years Resolutions that you have made have fallen behind schedule or simply been abandoned! You are not alone though, change is really hard to achieve for most of us, we are hard wired to do what we know and stay within our comfort zone, it is safer there!

So what are the 3 changes and how can you make these work for you?

Finances

Finances

00:00 / 15:24

During my conversations with clients over the years, it is apparent that Finances are a considerable area of concern for most people when they require fertility treatment. Next to relationship problems and breakdown, finances are a significant reason that prevent people from seeking further treatment.

In Australia the average cost of an IVF cycle is approximately $10,000, however in that cost you must also consider the extras and the hidden costs that you may not have budgeted for when embarking on your treatment.
