If you’ve wondered why so many medical providers are biased against fertility awareness we get into it in today’s episode with Emmy Poole!

Emmy is the woman behind She Is The Moon, a women’s wellness practice. She is a Maya Abdominal Practitioner and soon to be Fertility Awareness Educator. Emmy also works as a surgical technologist and gets the unique perspective of seeing the inner workings of the body, literally. This unique perspective has let her see things like adhesions, fibroids, misaligned uteruses, and so much more. It has made her even more passionate about Maya Abdominal Therapy and FAM, in hopes to help women seek other options before deciding to take the surgical route. It is Emmy’s goal to help educate women about their bodies, to teach them things we should have been taught, and help them claim back their bodily autonomy through education and reconnecting with their bodies.
