In this episode of Wellness As A Way of Life for Women Building the Future, we delve into how personal pain can spark innovation in the wellness space, focusing on the journey and impact of Bird&Be—a company reimagining what fertility support looks like. We explore the powerful intersection of proactive health, evidence-based products, and social stigma around reproductive health, for both women and men.
How Samantha Diamond’s personal experience with infertility and loss inspired her to build Bird&Be and challenge the norms of fertility support.
The gap in education and accessibility around reproductive health, and how Bird&Be’s platform and products aim to fill it—even in “fertility deserts” with limited care.
Why early, proactive testing and tracking are critical for optimizing fertility outcomes for both women and men, and how Bird&Be’s at-home tests make this more achievable.
The evidence-based lifestyle recommendations and supplements designed by fertility doctors, including diet, sleep, movement, and key micronutrients, to support fertility.
The importance of including men in the fertility conversation, breaking down stigma, and gamifying the testing experience to encourage involvement and levity during a stressful process.
TLDR:Bird&Be is changing the fertility landscape by making evidence-based education, testing, and supplements accessible—while breaking stigma and involving both genders in the conversation. The episode reminds us that proactive, empowered choices and open dialogue can dramatically shift fertility outcomes and experiences for individuals and couples.
