Nourish with Nature: Fertility, Food, and Self-Trust with Dietitian Aderet Hoch

Nourish with Nature: Fertility, Food, and Self-Trust with Dietitian Aderet Hoch

Author: Emmamma November 6, 2025 Duration: 39:23

Today I’m sitting down with Registered Dietitian Aderet Hoch, founder of Dining with Nature, for a grounded and refreshing conversation about nourishing our bodies across the fertility-to-family continuum—without falling into diet rules, comparison traps, or perfection pressure. We talk about honoring cycles (menstrual, seasonal, and life phases), building a peaceful relationship with food, and why sustainable nourishment starts with self-trust and compassion, not restriction. Aderet shares practical ideas for simple, nourishing meals during busy seasons, the “Venn-diagram menu” trick for feeding a family without turning into a short-order cook, and one incredibly simple habit you can try this week to feel more nourished without overhauling your routine. If you’re prepping for pregnancy, navigating postpartum, or simply craving a gentler, more intuitive way to take care of yourself, this episode will feel like a deep breath.
