About this episode

In this episode, Samantha Fackler interviews Dr. Caledonia Buckheit about fertility, pregnancy, and postpartum recovery for ambitious women.

Thinking about kids while building a business? This is the conversation I wish I had before getting pregnant. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Caledonia Buckheit, a board-certified OB-GYN, to break down what you actually need to know about fertility, pregnancy, and postpartum — without fear, fluff, or internet myths. We talk about how to think about family planning as an ambitious woman, when egg freezing actually makes sense, and what pregnancy and recovery really look like in your 30s. If you’ve ever felt like there’s no clear roadmap for this phase of life — this episode will change that. In this episode, we cover: The first question every OB-GYN asks when you’re thinking about kids When egg freezing is worth it (and when it’s not) What’s actually different about pregnancy in your 30s vs 20s How to optimize fertility for both you and your partner Why exercise during pregnancy is one of the most underused tools The truth about postpartum recovery (that no one prepares you for) How to build a real support system — especially as an entrepreneur The 18-month spacing rule and why it matters for your body Connect with Caledonia: Website…
