My fertility journey…

Back in 2015 when I was newly married and one year into my Naturopathic Medicine practice, my fertility challenges began. 

My first major obstacle?

An ectopic pregnancy. 

I was home on the couch crying and wondering where things had gone wrong. I didn’t want this to ever happen again. 

As an already practicing Naturopathic Doctor, I knew I had tools in  my toolbox to optimize my health so that I could conceive again, and maintain a healthy pregnancy. I just needed the right guide. This is when I found Conceive Health. 

I grew up knowing conceiving and maintaining pregnancies might not be the easiest thing for me. My mother suffered an ectopic pregnancy, multiple miscarriages, and had 3 premature babies. My grandmother and aunt also suffered ectopic pregnancies and went into menopause by their early 40s. 

I also knew I had some hormonal issues to figure out. I suffered from terrible acne as a teenager, lost my period for an entire year after stopping the oral contraceptive pill, and had dealt with incredible levels of stress both as a child and into my teenage and young adult years wreaking havoc on my thyroid function. 

I was a tired, burned out Naturopathic Doctor who was not in a healthy position to conceive. I just didn’t know it yet. 

Once I started working with Conceive Health as a patient to optimize my preconception status, I was able to get pregnant, stay pregnant and now have 2 beautiful children - Grayson and Emerson. 

I knew I wanted to share the magic I had experienced in achieving healthy pregnancies.  This is why I joined Team Conceive Health in 2019. It is now my mission to help my patients conceive and maintain healthy pregnancies, naturally and in some cases in combination with their fertility treatments. 

I invite you to learn more about who I am by reading my story below.

My story…

  1. I don’t have a hometown - I grew up all over North America following my oil-executive father. This makes me flexible and great at making friends.

  2. I am an incredible baker, an excellent gardener and very organized.

  3. I am the eldest child of New York Times best-selling author, Tosca Reno, aka. The Eat-Clean Queen.

  4. I was a competitive dancer for most of my childhood, which is how I learned to have deep appreciation for physical activity and the way the body moves and flows. 

  5. I am Type A all the way.

  6. I am known for taking the complex and confusing and making it simple.

  7. I love working as a fertility-focused Naturopathic Doctor because the tools in my toolbox are important for growing healthy humans. 

  8. My stepfather was a bodybuilder and the founder of Muscle Mag and Oxygen Magazine. I’ve spent a lot of time around bodybuilders, and I think of my patients as the ultimate bodybuilders. You’re literally growing a whole other human body!

  9. My dad was a triathlete and marathoner. I have now taken up the sport myself and compete regularly.

  10. I am currently obsessed with fertility tracking technology!

  11. My favourite quote is: TMI/NEU by Katie Couric. Too much information and not enough understanding. I help you weed out the crap and give you the understanding!

  12. I am a combination of Dutch and Italian and I hate both cheese and coffee. 

  13. I love teen dramas, swimming, reading, hiking and traveling.

  14. I was married in the same hotel where the British royal family stays when they travel to Scotland. 

  15. I have a sweet little pup named Jameson who sheds all over my house!
