EP 253 Surrendering to the Big O & Why it Matters for Baby Making | Willow Brown
DR. WILLOW BROWN holds a doctorate in Chinese Medicine. She blends ancient Taoist philosophy with sexual and spiritual practices that ignite the soul's true calling. She is devoted to the sexual healing of humanity and works to promote and open receptive pleasure pathways in each person she works with.
As these pleasure pathways open, your cellular body begins to open with sensuality and love, and your body shifts somatically. Clearing away all previous pretenses about who you think you should be so that you may become who you are meant to be. According to modern neurological studies, being in peace, happiness, and bliss is better for a long and happy life than any diet fad, exercise regime, or supplement.
These avenues to health and vitality can augment the inner peace and happiness that you will arrive at when you work with Dr. Willow. She works with her clients and patients on every level, physical, spiritual, emotional, and psychological. You will not find a more holistic approach to a long, happy, healthy life.

EP 241 Important Points to Consider When it Comes to Fertility Treatments | Dr. Ellen Goldstein
Dr. Goldstein is one of the most trusted names in fertility and is highly recommended by her patients for her communication, responsiveness, and attention to detail. She has guided her patients through more than one thousand in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycles and consistently delivers some of the highest pregnancy rates in the industry.
Dr. Goldstein obtained her MD from the Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York City and is a double board-certified OB-GYN and Reproductive Endocrinologist.
During her time as a Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility fellow at UCLA and Cedars-Sinai Medical Centers, Dr. Goldstein published and presented internationally her revolutionary discovery of an important genetic mutation that causes what had previously been considered an unexplained cause of familial infertility.
In an industry that is continually becoming less personalized, Dr. Goldstein is proof that you can provide world-class fertility care and empower hopeful parents to choose a fertility journey that aligns with their goals before anything else. She weaves her way through the often overwhelming world of fertility care with intuition and empathy, to make sure her patients have a clear understanding of their diagnosis and treatment options.
Dr. Goldstein is a fertility specialist at Beverly Hills Fertility and a partner of Innovative Health Diagnostics, which offers a variety of at-home tests, such as the AMH test, which focuses on infertility, as well as tests for COVID-19, general health biometric screening and both molecular and antibody STDs.
