In this episode, Kate sits down with Dr. Lucky Sekhon, board-certified reproductive endocrinologist, fertility specialist, and author of The Lucky Egg, for an honest, informative conversation about how fertility actually works. Together, they break down the biggest misconceptions women have about fertility, the truth about egg freezing and the biological clock, what birth control does (and doesn’t) affect, and why understanding your cycle earlier can change the way you approach your future.

They also discuss PCOS, endometriosis, painful periods, fertility anxiety, the emotional side of family planning, and why so many women feel blindsided by fertility conversations later in life. Dr. Sekhon shares what she wishes every woman knew in her 20s and 30s — and explains the science in a way that feels approachable, empowering, and far less overwhelming.

Whether you’re actively trying to conceive, thinking about egg freezing, or simply want to better understand your body, this episode is packed with valuable information every woman should hear.
