About this listen

In this top performing episode of 2025, I'm to revisit this conversation with Emily Oster, renowned economist, bestselling author, and professor at Brown University. You probably know her from her popular books Expecting Better, Cribsheet, and The Family Firm. Today, Emily joins me to take on "10 Fertility Myths: Fact or Fiction," and we're diving into what the data really says.

We're breaking down some of the most common beliefs about fertility—things like alcohol and caffeine use, stress, age, male fertility, and when to see a specialist. Emily is known for her clear and evidence-based approach to decision-making, and I know you're going to walk away from this conversation feeling more informed, supported, and empowered.

In this episode, we cover:

Whether alcohol and caffeine really impact fertility
How timing sex and managing stress play into conception
When it's time to see a fertility specialist
The truth about age-related fertility decline
Common myths around male fertility and sperm quality
How to use data in making fertility decisions
Emily's expansion of ParentData.org to support those TTC
