In this rant-y episode, we dive into the intersection of wellness culture, toxic positivity, and women's reproductive health after a viral clip from Lauryn Bosstic claiming her positive mindset was the reason she got pregnant on her first try.

In conversation, we tackle:

* The harmful impact of telling women their fertility struggles are due to not being "positive enough"

* How wellness influencers oversimplify complex medical issues and profit from women's desperation

* The "wellness to MAHA pipeline" and how legitimate health concerns are being co-opted by conservative movements

* The historical context of women's healthcare and how medicine has systematically dismissed women's concerns

* The alarming connection between manifesting culture and blaming women for their health struggles

* The evolutionary perspective on childbirth and why it's never been a "natural" or "health-neutral" event
