Stop Fighting Fatphobia, Start Growing Your Family

Hello, my friend! If you're reading this, you're likely already my kind of human as I have a pretty strict "no weight stigma allowed" policy 😉.

So you're in a bigger body and you want to get pregnant, but all the doctors keep telling you is "lose weight and come back"? 

Yeah, that's absolute bullshit.

Let me guess: you've spent hours in uncomfortable waiting room chairs, had doctors rush through appointments only to prescribe a diet rather than fertility tests, and possibly cried in your car afterwards wondering if your body is somehow broken or unworthy of care?

I see you. And I'm here to tell you that your incredible body is absolutely capable of pregnancy right now. The problem isn't your body, it's a medical system steeped in anti-fat bias that's standing in your way.

Your Journey: From Dismissed to Confident

Where You Are Now: You sit in that waiting room chair that's too small, stomach churning as you rehearse what you'll say. Maybe you've googled "how to talk to doctors about fertility when fat" at 2am. You leave appointments feeling frustrated, unheard, or worse - wondering if maybe they're right and your body really is the problem. You've been told to "just lose weight" so many times you're starting to believe fertility care isn't for bodies like yours.

  • You walk into Dr. Smith's office with a folder of prepared questions instead of hoping they'll just be nice this time. When they suggest weight loss for your irregular periods, you don't spiral - you've got a script: "I'd like to understand what specific tests we can do to investigate the cause of my irregular cycles." You leave feeling like you actually had a medical appointment instead of a diet consultation.

  • Dr. Jones starts the weight lecture and you interrupt confidently: "I'm here about my fertility. Can we discuss my hormone levels and whether you recommend an HSG?" When they hesitate, you're ready: "My understanding is that BMI isn't a contraindication for these tests. What's your clinical reasoning for delaying them?" You're not aggressive, just clear. You get the referral.

  • You sit across from a new consultant feeling calm instead of defensive. When they mention weight, you respond matter-of-factly: "I understand weight can be a factor in some fertility issues. Based on my test results, what specific interventions do you recommend?" You've learned to distinguish between relevant medical information and fatphobic stalling tactics. You leave with a treatment plan.

Where You'll Be: Appointments don't fill you with dread anymore. You understand your test results and know what questions to ask. When someone suggests weight loss inappropriately, you recognise it immediately rather than internalising shame. You've got a community of people who understand, strategies that work, and most importantly - you trust yourself to navigate this system without losing your mind.

  • “I honestly don’t know how people do it alone. Nicola’s guidance and support have been instrumental in keeping me positive and hopeful about what’s ahead."

  • "Nicola’s program taught me to think outside of the mere mechanics of conception and consider my wellbeing holistically....we identified other influences in my life which may have been having a negative effect and found solutions so I could control the impact they were having on me. The exercise and diet suggestions I am sure not only helped me conceive, but have found a place in my everyday life, and I am still using the relaxation and mindfulness techniques suggested."

  • "I now feel more positive and in control of my lifestyle and more accepting of the challenges of this fertilty journey and everything it brings up. I feel more able to accept difficult emotions rather than shutting them out or beating myself up about feeling them. I have made significant changes to my diet and self-care regime (including making more time for meditation, exercise and better sleep!) and feel very good about this. Not so specific but I have a deeper sense of genuine hopefulness for the future whatever it brings."

  • "I would highly recommend Nicola – it really helps to have someone there to support you along the way, helping you make important changes to improve diet and lifestyle and stop you worrying as much! I’d never heard of a fertility coach before coming across Nicola, but more women should have one, it’s a very valuable service. It felt like talking to a really knowledgeable friend, who genuinely cared. The added touches of cards and little emails to help me stay on track were so thoughtful and much appreciated."

  • "After almost 2.5 years of trying, we are pregnant! I’m through the first trimester now, and everything seems to be going great. I’m not scared of miscarriage or post partum depression, because I feel like I have a strong foundation. My relationship is healthy, I know what makes me happy, and I am ready to bring a brand new person into my already fulfilling life. Thank you, Nicola, for helping me make my family a reality."

  • "When we started working together I was feeling overwhelmed and afraid that engaging more with fertility coaching would cause it to further dominate and consume my life – in fact the opposite happened – I feel more empowered to honour the importance of this journey and what comes up but also able to hold and focus on other parts of life. I feel the changes I have made have been positive for my overall wellbeing as well as my fertility."

Why 3 months? //

Why 3 months? //

Because real change takes time. In my experience, it takes about 3 months to:

  • Build genuine confidence in medical settings

  • See meaningful shifts in how providers respond to you

  • Develop the advocacy skills that become second nature

  • Process the emotional aspects of fertility challenges

  • Create sustainable strategies that last beyond our work together

At the end of 3 months, you'll have the option to extend month-to-month if you want continued support, but most clients find they're equipped to navigate independently by then.

This is for you if…

✅ You're fat and want to get pregnant.

✅ You want evidence-based support that treats your body with respect exactly as it is..

✅ You're sick of being told to lose weight before receiving actual fertility care.

✅ You can commit to 3 months of doing this work.

✅ You want someone in your corner who understands anti-fat bias in healthcare.

✅ You're ready to advocate for yourself but need the tools and confidence to do it effectively.

Why Me?

Look, I'm not just another fertility coach who decided to add "body positive" to their bio. I'm here to help fat folks, just like you, navigate getting pregnant in a world obsessed with weight.

As an award-winning fertility advocate and author of "Fat and Fertile," I've spent years challenging the bullshit weight bias that permeates the fertility industry. I don't just talk about these issues, I've dedicated my life to dismantling them.

The truth? I've watched countless brilliant, deserving people have their reproductive dreams delayed or denied simply because of their size. I've witnessed the harm that medical fatphobia causes - the wasted time, the unnecessary procedures, the emotional damage that comes from being told your body is a problem to be fixed before you deserve care.

That injustice lit a fire in me that hasn't stopped burning.

Now I help clients trust their bodies and navigate this broken system without diets or body shame. I don't offer feel-good platitudes, instead I provide evidence-based strategies that get real results while protecting your mental wellbeing.

What makes me different is simple: I believe your body is not the problem to be solved. The problem is a medical system that refuses to see past your size to provide the care you deserve. And I've got the tools, research, and righteous anger to help you navigate it.

What Clients Say:

Anon

"Having Nicola is like having a personal fertility cheerleader - helping me with tiny, manageable action steps to improve my health and calm my anxiety. She always reminds me that my fat body is 100% capable of getting pregnant."

Anon

"I can't tell you how blown away my partner and I both are and how incredibly grateful we are. We're both really quiet people that don't push for things or ask for extra so trying to navigate this fertility world has been so hard! We can honestly say that the 1-1 we had with you yesterday was hands down the best 'appointment' we've ever had. We were both effusing over how knowledgeable you were and how much information you gave us. We felt true hope again in relation to hopefully being able to have a family, something we haven't felt in a long time. So thank you! I've felt like I've been to blame for so long and the one letting everyone down, and you really took that weight off yesterday.

I Know This Investment Feels Scary

Let's be honest - if you're in a bigger body, you've probably spent money on things that promised to "fix" you but left you feeling worse. Diet programs, supplements, "health coaches" who were just MLM reps in disguise. Maybe even medical appointments that cost a fortune just to be told to lose weight.

The investment feels scary because we're used to spending money on things that don't work or make us feel worse.

This is different. This isn't about changing your body - it's about changing how you navigate a broken system. And I stand behind this work because I've seen it transform how people advocate for themselves, not just in fertility appointments but in all their healthcare.

  • Real talk: some doctors will still be awful, and that's not your fault or a reflection of your progress. Success isn't "every doctor treats you perfectly" - it's feeling confident enough to recognize bullshit when you hear it, knowing your rights, having scripts that work, and finding providers who actually help. If you need continued support after 3 months, we can extend month-to-month.

    • You walk into appointments prepared with specific questions that are hard to dismiss

    • You can recognize when weight is being blamed inappropriately vs. when it might be medically relevant

    • You've got a toolkit of responses for common fatphobic scenarios

    • You understand your test results and know what to ask for next

    • You feel less anxious and more empowered in medical settings

    • You've connected with other fat folks who "get it"

  • We practice. A lot. I'll help you write scripts, role-play scenarios, and even help you bring a support person if that helps. Some of my clients bring written lists of questions or even record appointments (where legal). We work with your communication style, not against it.

  • Yes! I often help clients navigate conversations with partners who mean well but don't understand medical bias. I've got resources for partners and can even join a session if that would help.

  • Zero tolerance policy. The community is actively moderated and has clear guidelines. Anyone promoting weight loss, "health at every size but actually lose weight," or diet culture gets removed immediately. This space is sacred.

  • Life happens. If you need to pause, we'll work something out. I'm not going to add financial stress to someone already dealing with fertility challenges. Let's have an honest conversation about what works.

  • If after our first month you don't feel more confident and equipped to advocate for yourself, or if you feel like this approach isn't right for you, we can part ways, I want you to feel certain this is helping.
