The Cyclical Doula Podcast: Fertility Awareness, Charting Cycles, and Reproductive Health Education
In this episode of The Cyclical Doula Podcast, I’m joined by Alyssa Chavez — functional nutritionist, life coach, and former professional ballet dancer — for a grounded conversation about endometriosis, infertility, miscarriage, and what it can look like to rebuild trust with your body after years of pain.
Alyssa shares her personal story: coming off birth control, escalating symptoms, being dismissed, receiving an endometriosis diagnosis in 2019, IVF, miscarriage, and the turning point that led her into functional nutrition. We talk about the “whole person” approach: supporting hormones and digestion and inflammation and nervous system health — without turning food into another form of punishment.
If you’ve ever felt like your body isn’t a safe place, or you’ve been told “this is just normal,” this one is for you.
