Everything You Should Know About Preventing Pregnancy Naturally with Nathalie Daudet Aug 29, 2023

Show notes

When it comes to ditching the birth control pill (and all of its side effects) some of us feel like we might be totally “reckless” or “irresponsible.” We may feel lost, confused, and not sure how to go about preventing pregnancy without it. Here’s the deal: Your birth control choice is your personal decision. BUT, it’s not the only option, going off of it doesn’t make you irresponsible, and it’s about damn time we had open conversations about all of the alternatives on the table. That’s why, I’m thrilled to have Nathalie Daudet on the show today. Nathalie is a fertility awareness educator, menstrual cycle coach and the founder of Fertility Awareness Project. Listen in as Nathalie gets real about fertility awareness method (FAM) myths, the taboo around going off the pill, the pros and cons of FAM, the basics of cycle tracking, and more!
