Podcast 146: A different type of COVID-19 loss: Pregnancy dreams “on hold” with Fertility Coach Nicola Salmon

"It’s like it's a bereavement. Because it's not just that their cycles have been stopped. It's that they've lost that potential that their baby could have been born in nine months." - Nicola SalmonHas your fertility or medical care been delayed or disrupted due to COVID-19? My guest today is Nicola Salmon, author of Fat and Fertile. We discuss how her work as a fat positive fertility coach has changed dramatically in the face of COVID-19.

You’ll learn how she is helping people through and it just may help you grieve the losses you’re feeling at this time, fertility or not. Plus she shares insight on her own self-care practices as a higher weight person feeling vulnerable (thank you, crappy weight stigma misinformation and nasty memes). Nicola shares her unwavering commitment to her emotional well-being during quarantine through gentle self-care practices.

Listen here to Episode 146 here:

About Nicola

Fat and FertileNicola Salmon is a fat-positive and feminist fertility coach and author of “Fat and Fertile”.

She advocates for change in how fat people are treated whilst accessing help with their fertility.

Nicola supports fat people who want to get pregnant using her unique FAT+ve fertility framework to find their own version of health without diets, advocate for their bodies, relearn how to trust their body and believe in their ability to get pregnant in their current body.
