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 If you liked this episode, check out these episodes of The Liz Moody Podcast: •The Truth About Birth Control, Cycle Syncing, PMS, And More •The Hidden Root Cause of Aging Faster, PCOS, & Endometriosis (+ Exactly What To Do About It) For more from Dr. Natalie Crawford: •Pre-Order Her Book, The Fertility Formula: Take Control of Your Reproductive Future: https://bookpeople.com/book/9780593994306 •Website: https://www.nataliecrawfordmd.com/ •Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nataliecrawfordmd Ready to uplevel every part of your life?

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 Check out the previous episode of The Liz Moody Podcast discussed: The Seven-Minute Secret To Happiness That No One Is Talking About with Dr. Dacher Keltner Ready to uplevel every part of your 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?

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.

Frankly, making new friends kind of sucks.

I get into the REAL reason it’s so hard to make best friends as an adult, and exactly how you can fix it. 🎧 What you’ll learn: • The hidden reason adult friendships fail before they start • The "creation era" vs. "cozy era" of friendship • A therapy trick to help you make new friends • The best first friend hang ideas • The exact number of hours it takes to turn someone into a close friend • How to fast-track friendship without the pressure • How your phone is impacting your ability to make real friends Check out the previous episodes of The Liz Moody Podcast discussed today: The Secret To Making Soul Satisfying Friends As An Adult (Avoid The Mistake Everyone Makes!)

We all have that one thing we're avoiding right now. Whether it's hitting the gym, starting that side hustle, or finally getting to bed at a reasonable hour—we keep putting it off even though we know it's exactly what we need to level up our lives. And trust me, I get it, Netflix and cozy blankets are calling my name too. But here's the really exciting thing—I sat down with the absolutely brilliant Kati Morton (she's THE expert on making hard things easier, with a master's from Pepperdine University and an incredible way of breaking down complex psychology into doable steps). We dove deep into why our brains resist change so much and, more importantly, how to actually get ourselves to do those big, scary things that lead to massive transformation. If you've ever felt stuck between knowing what you should do and actually doing it, this episode is going to be a game-changer.

Two years ago, I made a vision board and put on everything I wanted to manifest for my dream life. I’d done enough research to know that manifestation isn’t BS—it’s actually backed by some incredibly impressive neuroscience. I was ready for that science to kick in, and for my life to dramatically change—and then—it didn’t. Because I’m a longtime journalist, I investigated why it didn’t work, and what I found SHOCKED me, so that’s what we’re getting into in this episode—the sneaky reasons manifestation might not be working the way you want it to, and exactly how to fix that so all of your greatest dreams and goals can come true. 🎧 What you’ll learn: • The three key reasons your manifesting isn't working—and how to fix each one • How to create an "action board" that's 60,000 times more effective than a vision board • The nervous system regulation technique you must do before any manifestation practice • How to use the "reverse gratitude" exercise to shift from a scarcity to an abundance mindset • The neuroscience behind why manifestation is proven to work (when done correctly) Check out the FREE “21 Days To Change Your Life Plan” we made for our listeners at LizMoody.com/January.

I used to dread doing any type of workout. I remember thinking, maybe I’m just naturally more lazy. But it turns out, we’re all wired for it—I was just approaching it all wrong. Today’s episode is going to turn you into the type of person who gets excited to move I’m thrilled to share this conversation with Dr. Kelly McGonigal, a Stanford professor, bestselling author, and someone who has spent decades studying the psychology and neuroscience of movement. Her work was pivotal in changing my relationship with working out. This episode isn’t about forcing yourself to work out harder. It’s about why we’ve been thinking about movement all wrong—and how to finally make it work with your brain instead of against it. 🎧 What you’ll learn: Why motivation is the wrong entry point for movement What actually works to crave working out The wild impact movement has on preserving our dopamine levels as they decline with age How long it takes to enjoy working out The step counts of people who were depressed versus the step counts of people who felt full of meaning and purpose And so much more Check out the FREE “21 Days To Change Your Life Plan” we made for our listeners at LizMoody.com/January.

Today's episode is different. I’m not giving you the same BS weight loss advice you’ve heard over and over again. We're getting into the messy, nuanced questions that actually come up when you’re trying to lose weight in a way that’s healthy, shame free, and supportive of feeling the way you want to feel. We’re talking about plateaus that seem to happen for no reason, cravings that feel out of control, hormones that complicate everything, workouts that backfire, and how to pursue weight loss without destroying your relationship with food—or yourself. And we’re doing it with someone I trust deeply to hold all of that complexity: functional registered dietitian and certified personal trainer Nicki Parlitsis, who has helped thousands of people lose weight in ways that actually last. She’s actually my personal RD and she’s helped me lose 30 pounds in a sustainable way over the course of a year, after I got some test results that served as a wake up call in my own life. Today’s episode is going to help you create a body that feels amazing to live in. If you’ve ever felt confused, frustrated, or secretly ashamed for struggling with something that everyone online makes look easy—this episode is for you. 🎧 What you’ll learn: How to break through a weight loss plateau The common, "minuscule" mistakes that can stall your weight loss journey Strategies to manage hunger and cut calories without feeling deprived The difference between "head hunger" and "stomach hunger" The specific lab work and health markers (e.g., A1C, cholesterol, ferritin, thyroid panel) that indicate success or could be impeding your weight loss How hormonal conditions like Hypothyroidism/Hashimoto's and PCOS can affect your metabolism and insulin response, and strategies to support them A healthy approach to weight loss without developing an unhealthy relationship with food or returning to disordered eating patterns How to address emotional eating and cravings with non-food-related sources of comfort and joy Check out the previous episodes of The Liz Moody Podcast discussed today: How To Lose Weight In A Healthy Way with Nicki Parlitsis The Science Of Putting Together a Workout Routine To Hit YOUR Goals with Dr. Shannon Ritchey My Healthy Weight Loss Journey: Science-Backed, Pragmatic Action Steps That Actually Worked Mentioned in this episode: The 13 simple recipes that helped Liz lose weight in a healthy way The FREE “21 Days To Change Your Life, Week 1: Nutrition Plan” we made for our listeners at LizMoody.com/January.

I walk you through six science-backed questions that will help you design your most aligned, grounded, and fulfilling year yet. These are the prompts I personally use to understand what’s working, what’s not, and how to move toward the version of myself I want to become. You’ll learn how to decode the patterns hiding in your best and worst days, how to use the expectancy effect to make your big dreams more achievable, why your values don’t matter unless you’re living them, and how systems (not motivation) actually determine your success. We’ll also explore the beliefs you need to leave behind in 2025, plus the neuroscience explaining why reflecting on your wins dramatically increases motivation. Whether you feel stuck, excited for a reset, or simply want 2026 to look and feel different than the year before, this is guaranteed to help. If you want to go deeper, I created a free companion workbook + life audit at LizMoody.com/2026, to help you turn these questions into your most meaningful year yet. 🎧 What you’ll learn: How analyzing your “best” and “blah” days reveals the habits that shape your mood and energy Why your brain responds to what you believe is possible, not what’s true—and how to use this to achieve your goals The Expectancy Effect and why acting as if your success is inevitable actually rewires your brain How to identify your top three values and the wake-up-call question that reveals whether you're living them The surprising way capitalism conditions many of us to prioritize wealth over what we actually care about The Arrival Fallacy: why achievements never feel as good as the process that gets us there Why subtracting old beliefs and habits is more effective than adding more to your plate The dopamine-boosting reflection ritual that increases motivation and reminds you of how far you’ve come Check out previous Liz Moody Podcast episodes mentioned today: The Science Of Pain: Natural Ways To Manage Chronic & Acute Pain + Hidden Causes With Dr. Rachel Zoffness How To Figure Out Your Dream Career (and Actually Get It!) with Suzy Welch Proven Habits To Build Resilience: How To Handle Anything The World Throws At You with Sahil Bloom Subscribe to Liz’s Substack to download a FREE Connection Card Game: https://lizmoody.substack.com/welcome Ready to transform every part of your life?

I dive into the science of modern heterosexual relationships, and what I found shook me. Men tend to live longer and gain emotional and health support, even in low quality marriages. While women only receive these benefits in very high-quality marriages! To rebalance invisible labor and create fairer systems for women, I share tools you can use with insights I’ve gained from top experts. I also discuss the possible benefits of an unmarried life path for some. Whether you're single or partnered, after listening to this episode you'll leave feeling informed and empowered to create nourishing, sustainable relationships that benefit you. 🎧 What you’ll learn: The Fair Play Method for dividing household responsibilities The Time-Tracking Method for revealing hidden inequalities Why rotating career priorities reduces burnout, resentment, and wage gaps How to identify emotional over-dependence in relationships Two powerful ways for men to build emotional support systems outside their partners The 5-minute weekly check-in that can transform connection, communication, and fairness How to define what a truly good marriage looks like for you ✨ Homework: Choose one task or domain in your home—meals, laundry, scheduling, kids’ activities—and assign FULL ownership to one partner (planning, remembering, doing, follow-up). Or try the 5-minute weekly check-in with the three questions shared in the episode. Notice how shifting just one dynamic lightens your load and deepens mutual support.

Do you ever feel like you’re behind on the life you’re trying to build, despite constantly being busy? I sat down with Oliver Burkeman, one of the most influential voices on productivity and purpose, to share tools to make more time for the things that genuinely matter so you can do more of what you love to create your dream life. Oliver unpacks the psychology, sharing a radically different productivity approach: embracing your limitations, choosing what matters, and releasing the pressures holding you back. 🎧 What you’ll learn: What boredom and discomfort actually signal How to work on your dreams when you only have 10–20 minutes A grounding question to decide what’s truly worth your time How to trust yourself even if you’ve “let yourself down” before A moment-to-moment practice for choosing what life is asking of you now Why your brain clings to the fantasy of a “sorted, future version” of yourself What procrastination is really about (and why it’s not laziness) A simple tool—the Reverse Golden Rule—for becoming kinder to yourself How parenting reshaped Oliver’s relationship to time and control Why daily-ish habits work better than perfect streaks ✨ Homework: Spend 10 minutes doing something you know you want more of in your life—writing, calling someone you love, being outside, reading, creating. Not planning it, not optimizing it. Doing it. This is how change starts.
