Memorable Quotes
“Your single cell has the capacity to become a baby. Just think about that for a second. So it is the site of highest amount of mitochondria because of embryogenesis to make a baby. There’s a lot of nutrients and there’s a lot of energy.”
“If you have been diagnosed with diminished ovarian reserve or premature ovarian insufficiency, I want you to think back of if there was a time where you felt the high energy and the abundance and the vitality, and look back at a picture and see if you can remember how you felt.”
“The ovaries are our deepest connection to the past generation. That’s why it’s so confronting to even think about. It’s very triggering to even think about, oh, we’re ready to start trying to conceive, or I think I’m having issues because it makes you feel like something is wrong with you, but really what it’s doing is bringing out some past stuff that is essentially a burden that you are carrying and you didn’t realize you were carrying it.”
