She holds an MS in Reproductive Clinical Science from Eastern Virginia Medical School, where her thesis focused on modifiable factors influencing IVF outcomes. She has worked as an embryologist and andrologist in high-volume IVF labs, is certified in nutrigenomics, and is a certified personal trainer and health coach. She's spent her career on the lab side, watching embryos develop, and now helps patients understand what their results are really telling them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProgram details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eFormat: Virtual, 8 live group calls plus recordings\u003cbr\u003eStart date: October 19, 2026\u003cbr\u003eCall day and time: TBD\u003cbr\u003eDuration: 8 weeks\u003cbr\u003eSpots: 50 (1 Spot per Couple)\u003cbr\u003ePrice: $450\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eDoes this replace my fertility clinic?\u003cbr\u003eNo. This program works alongside your clinic. We don't change your protocol or prescribe medication. We help you understand your data, find what else may be contributing, and walk into your next consult with better questions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eCan this program guarantee more blastocysts?\u003cbr\u003eNo one can honestly guarantee that. Some factors, like egg age and random chromosome errors, can't be changed. The program focuses on finding the step where your embryos are being lost and addressing the factors that can be influenced, for both partners.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eShould my partner join?\u003cbr\u003eYes. Egg and sperm biology work together, and sperm takes about 74 days to develop, so his changes need to start at the same time as yours.
