Manage episode 422251272 series 3578607
For our anniversary episode, we have a very special guest who is making waves in motherhood: Leslie Schrock is an accomplished author with two books that bridge the gap between cutting-edge research and practical advice for working families. Her breakout hit book, 'Bumpin': The Modern Guide to Pregnancy,' has become a go-to resource for parents navigating the simultaneously beautiful and challenging journey of pregnancy. Her second book, 'Fertility Rules: The Definitive Guide to Male and Female Reproductive Health,' draws on the latest clinical research to provide insights into topics that are rarely discussed in fertility books, from increasing sperm count and reducing exposure to endocrine disrupting chemicals to navigating IVF.
Leslie's impact goes beyond her writing; as an angel investor, she has played a vital role in supporting and guiding startups like Maven, Oath, Alife, and Origin, and is a mom to two incredibly fun boys. In this episode, we delve into Leslie's journey as a mother and how it has influenced her work, bust myths around pregnancy and fertility, and discuss whether it is truly possible to "have it all" as a working mom.
