You may not be ready for an intensive 12-week journey, but you know it’s time to begin.
Refresh is your first step. Over four focused weeks, you’ll learn how to:
  • Re-establish daily rhythms that support hormone balance.
  • Ease physical and emotional stress so your body can respond again.
  • Understand your unique cycle patterns and what they’re telling you.
  • Lay the groundwork for Nourish and Strengthen—the next phases of your fertility plan.
Women over 40 also deserve a starting point that feels kind, achievable, and guided.

  About this course

The Refresh Coaching Program

The Refresh Fertility Wellness Program is designed for women 40 and beyond who are trying to conceive naturally or preparing for assisted care. It’s especially supportive for those experiencing irregular or shortened cycles, feeling hormonally out of balance, or emotionally drained from the uncertainty of this stage. Refresh offers a compassionate starting point for women ready to take simple, consistent actions that rebuild trust in their bodies and restore a sense of hope and stability on their fertility journey. 
To make needed changes to your reproductive wellness you will want to "Refresh" to help reach reproductive wellness.  

What's Inside the 4-Weeks

Each week of the Refresh Wellness Program guides you through evidence-based, compassionate lessons designed for women 40 and beyond navigating fertility and hormonal changes. You’ll learn to understand, nourish, and restore your body’s natural balance, without overwhelm or unrealistic promises.

Week 1 | Understanding Your Body’s Transition

Gain a clear understanding of what’s happening in your body during your 40s, from subtle hormonal shifts to perimenopausal changes that can influence fertility and overall wellness.

You’ll learn how to listen to your body’s signals, recognize where imbalances may be forming, and begin aligning your daily habits with what your body truly needs at this stage.

Week 2 | Nourishing Your Body for Optimal Health

Discover how specific nutrients support hormonal balance, improve egg and cycle quality, and ease symptoms associated with fertility challenges and menopause.

We’ll explore essential vitamins and minerals such as calcium, vitamin D, omega-3 fatty acids, and phytoestrogens — and how to incorporate them into simple, sustainable meal patterns that promote fertility and vitality.

Week 3 | Holistic Connection & Stress Management

Learn how your emotional and mental states directly affect hormonal function, ovulation, and menstrual regularity.
You’ll gain insight into the impact of chronic stress, and practice gentle, practical tools for stress reduction, emotional grounding, and restoring your body’s natural sense of safety — an essential part of improving fertility outcomes after 40.

Week 4 | Sleep and Recovery for Hormonal Health

Explore how restorative sleep influences hormonal balance and reproductive health, especially during perimenopause and fertility transitions.

You’ll learn how to identify and manage common sleep disturbances — from stress-related insomnia to night sweats — and build routines that promote deeper rest, cellular repair, and improved hormonal harmony.
By the end of these four weeks, you’ll have a clear understanding of your body’s transitions, the nutrients that support your hormones, and the restorative practices that help your fertility and wellness thrive - now and in the years ahead.

The Refresh Wellness Program offers a compassionate starting point - a clear, evidence-based path to help you restore balance and reconnect with your body’s natural rhythms.

When you’re ready to take that next step, Fertile Optimism will be here to guide you forward with understanding, structure, and hope

Reproductive. | Wellness. | Fertility. | Menopause.

We believe that a woman's reproductive wellness has much to do with her overall health and balance whether she is trying to conceive or has transitioned into menopause. My goal is to help you blur out what fails or what is not serving you and instead help you to increase what works and improve upon lifestyle changes that show promise.

About Fertile Optimism

Who We Are
Fertile Optimism was created to support women in their 30s, 40s, and beyond as they navigate fertility, hormonal change, and reproductive wellness with compassion and evidence-based guidance.

Founded by a Certified Doula and Women’s Wellness Coach with over 20 years in healthcare, Fertile Optimism grew from a deeply personal journey,  one that revealed how misunderstood women’s fertility and hormonal health can become once they reach their late 30s and 40s. What began as a search for clarity turned into a mission: to offer other women the understanding, tools, and confidence they deserve.

What We Believe
We believe that even the 40+ woman deserves not just hope, but also a roadmap and a compassionate, informed path to follow when her body begins to change.

We believe fertility and hormonal wellness are not isolated from overall health, but part of a bigger story that includes nutrition, sleep, emotional balance, and purpose.

And we believe education and empathy can change many things,  supporting women to make decisions that align with their body, their values, and their season of life.
