This week we're sitting down with Ronit Menashe and Vida Delrahim — the founders of WeNatal — for a conversation that needs to be had. Both Ronit and Vida went through miscarriages around the same time, and what they discovered through their own fertility journeys completely changed how they think about women's health, men's health, and the entire fertility industry.

If you've ever felt like fertility was something only your body was responsible for figuring out — or you've been handed a prenatal at your OB's office without anyone explaining what's actually in it — this episode is for you.

Here's what we get into:

• Ronit and Vida's personal fertility journeys and the moment they realized this was being put all on women
• Why men are 50% of the fertility equation — and barely in the conversation
• What everyday habits are quietly wrecking male fertility
• Why most prenatals are under-dosed or full of low-quality ingredients (and what to actually look for)
• The role of metabolic health, stress, and nervous system regulation in conception
• The fertility red flags people have normalized
• Their most unpopular hot takes — including whether women are being gaslit about their symptoms
• What they want every woman feeling hopeless in her fertility journey to hear

This week we're sitting down with the founder of Alec's Ice Cream — the brand making ice cream that's genuinely indulgent and genuinely better for you. And no, those two things aren't a contradiction.

If you've been around Gut Talk for a while, you know how we feel about the wellness world's obsession with demonizing food. Ice cream is one of the most fear-mongered foods out there — and this episode is a refreshing, honest conversation about why that needs to stop. We get into A2 dairy, regenerative farming, and why "healthifying" everything might be missing the point entirely.

This one's for anyone who wants the real story behind a "better for you" brand — the ingredients, the business, and the truth about the healthy-dessert aisle.

Here's what we get into:

• How a kid making ice cream turned it into a real business — and the moment the gap in the market became obvious
• What "indulgent but feel-good" actually means (and why that's not a marketing gimmick)
• Why the wellness world has spent years demonizing foods like ice cream — and why that's a problem
• A2 dairy explained simply — what it is, how it's different from regular dairy, and why your gut might care
• The honest story behind the regenerative dairy sourcing challenge, and what they prioritize for quality now
• Why they removed seed oils, gums, and fillers — and how they develop new flavors
• The hardest parts of scaling a perishable product, and what raising $11M actually changed
• Ice cream hot takes: is most "healthy ice cream" just marketing? Are low-calorie desserts missing the point?
• The hardest decision he's had to make as a founder
