Hey, Heal Squad! Thinking about having a baby, or already in the thick of it? You’re going to want to hear this one. This week, Maria sits down with Heather Rae El Moussa (yes, you may know her from Selling Sunset!) for a powerful conversation about IVF, motherhood, and everything that comes after. Heather takes us back to her journey through fertility treatments, sharing the emotional, physical, and spiritual lessons she’s learned along the way. She and Maria get real about the silent struggles so many women face, from the tough decisions around frozen embryos to navigating postpartum health challenges. PLUS, she opens up about her Hashimoto’s diagnosis after pregnancy and the natural steps she’s taking to heal, from embracing a vegan diet to switching to non-toxic living and learning to slow down. Together, they talk about balancing motherhood, work, and wellness, how their partners’ health journeys have shaped their own, and why therapy and honest communication have been game changers in keeping their relationships strong. Don’t miss this one! HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS: The hardest part of IVF comes after. Heather and Maria open up about the emotional weight of deciding what to do with frozen embryos, a choice that many couples face but few ever talk about out loud. Healing starts with simplifying. From eating plant-based to switching to non-toxic products, Heather’s journey reminds us that small, consistent lifestyle shifts can have a massive impact on how we feel day to day. Strong relationships are built through honesty. Maria and Heather both share how therapy and open communication have helped them navigate their partners’ health challenges, proving that real love requires vulnerability, not perfection. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy’s Page: Shop My Macy’s Storefront EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/ Briotech: https://shopbriotech.com/ Use Code: HEALSQUAD for 20% off Join In-Person Heal Retreat Waitlist! https://mariamenounos.myflodesk.com/heal-retreat-waitlist GUEST RESOURCES: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theheatherraeelmoussa/?hl=en TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@heatherraeelmoussa Heather Rae Beauty: https://www.instagram.com/heatherraeessentials/?hl=en Website: https://heatherraeessentials.com/ ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.
