Welcome to the latest series of Fertility Foundations, where we speak in depth with expert guests about how to prepare the foundations for healthy pregnancy. This week Sandra Greenbank is talking to Raquel Monroy about how to protect your mental health and stay positive when you're trying to conceive.

Raquel is a registered Nutritional Therapist specialising in infertility and women's health. She helps those who are trying to conceive to optimise their diet and lifestyle to help them get pregnant and have the healthy baby they didn't think was possible. Throughout this episode Sandra and Raquel discuss the emotional challenges of infertility and the importance of seeking support, prioritising health, and practicing self-care.
