The Liz Moody Podcast

I have so many friends struggling with infertility or getting different fertility information from their doctors—”freeze your eggs, don’t freeze your eggs, it’s okay that you don’t get your period, it’s a warning sign”. Then I read Dr. Natalie Crawford’s amazing book, The Fertility Formula, and I found out that there’s a HUGE underlying cause of infertility that I’ve never heard anyone talk about. 

So today, I’m fortunate to have on Dr. Natalie Crawford, a world renowned fertility doctor, a double board certified OBGYN, and author of The Fertility Formula, to clear things up. We’re talking about exactly what to do in your 20s, 30s, and 40s for your fertility. And heads up—even if you don’t want kids, your fertility is incredibly important for your overall health. 

Whether you’re trying to put yourself in the best possible position for the future you want, or you’re trying to solve a problem, this episode is going to help, and you’re going to get information you won’t hear anywhere else.

🎧 What you’ll learn:

• The hidden cause of infertility nobody talks about and how to fight it with sleep, exercise, and food

• Why your period is a vital sign—and the simple tracking methods that reveal your fertility health

• When to freeze your eggs for the best ROI—and why the "insurance policy" narrative is misleading

• How birth control masks fertility problems and why taking a break could change everything

• The scary truth about sperm counts and what men must do differently

• Why your fertility is a health marker for your entire life—even if you never want kids

• The one blood test every woman should get in her 20s to avoid devastating surprises

• How to cut through conflicting doctor advice and become your own best advocate

• The real math behind egg freezing success rates—and when IVF beats IUI

• Simple lifestyle changes that improve egg quality in just 60-90 days

Have you ever wondered if you’re burnt out or if this is just the price of participation in the modern economic climate? And what if you can't change jobs? Is it possible to make your job more purposeful and satisfying, even if you're trapped in it? 

I chat with Amina AlTai, the author of The Ambition Trap and an executive coach who's helped thousands of women optimize their work lives. She answers all of these questions and gets into why you’re burnt out and exactly what you can do about it, no matter your situation—if you’re stuck in a job you hate, if you’re looking for a new job, if you love your job but it’s exhausting you—you’ll end this episode with pragmatic steps to feel better ASAP.

• How to tell if you're in the wrong career (before you waste years feeling miserable)

• The hidden wounds driving your overwork—and how to stop seeking validation through achievement

• Why your "zone of genius" matters more than your passion (and how to find yours in 3 steps)

• How to spot burnout red flags during a job interview (so you never accept the wrong offer again)

I feel like everyone lately has been talking about “feeling behind in life”, so I decided to recirculate this popular episode at a time when we all truly need to hear it. 

I share why so many of us feel like we’re ‘behind’—we tell ourselves we should have more money, should already own a home, or should be having babies by now. But what’s happening in our psychology to make us feel this way? And how do we fix it? I answer those questions and share science-backed insights and strategies to help you stop feeling ‘behind in life’ and start embracing where you are.

🎧 What you’ll learn:

• The “gold medal syndrome”—a psychological trap that makes Olympic gold medalists still feel inadequate

• The "arrival fallacy"—why getting what you want often makes you less happy

• Why your messy, non-linear path is actually a key ingredient of a well-lived life

• The four-step method to stop comparing yourself to everyone else's highlight reel

• How to identify the invisible "shoulds" controlling your life (and break free from them)

• What dying people actually regret — and why it's never about the timeline you're stressing over

• The secret to finding extraordinary moments in your ordinary, everyday life

A lot of us know the physical and mental benefits of sex, and yet so many of us are not having the amazing sex we want. So I wanted to know—why don't we crave sex even though we like it? And how can anyone, no matter how exhausted they are, or no matter how long they've been with their partner, regularly have the best sex?

I chat with Dr. Nicole McNichols, an internationally renowned human sexuality professor, whose course is the most popular in the history of the University of Washington, and she shares answers to all of my questions, plus gives genius solutions to all of your sex problems. She also tells us, surprisingly, where the male  G-spot is (it’s probably not where you think it is).

🎧 What you’ll learn:

• How to combat why you don't want sex, even though you like it 

• The orgasm gap and exactly how to close it with communication techniques that work

• What actually makes long-term partners hot for each other

• The intimacy date that will change everything 

• The four types of intimacy in a relationship

• The truth about a successful female orgasm

• Where women’s and men’s “ G-spots” are

• The one small change to do a month to keep passion alive
