100 Foods to Feed Your Fertility

It's hard to believe I wrote 100 posts over on Fertile. Fit. Fabulous (my first blog). This was actually the 100th post I wrote over there to mark my move to Live Fertile.

I had so much fun writing about fertility, nutrition, wellness, and fitness. And all the randomness that flies into my head as I write about fertility, nutrition, wellness, and fitness. I faced some major fears, namely the fear of being judged. 

I put myself out there to talk about a subject I'm still learning about, a subject that is always evolving and expanding. Which for the girl who would sweat bullets in class even when she knew she knew the answer, is a really big deal. But when you are passionate about something, in my case helping others give birth to healthy babies and create full lives, you grow some courage. You just do it. You just get started. And I hope you do the same.

So as a farewell to Fertile Fit Fabulous, and a hello to Live Fertile, I would like to share 100 foods that are jam packed with goodness and nutrients to help us build a more healthy, happy, radiant, and fertile body, mind, and life.
