Episode 77 - Johannes Soulages On How Can We Break The Male Infertility Stigma

This week on the podcast is Johannes Soulages of Four.Consulting in a recent Instagram live. How can we break the male infertility stigma and how does infertility impact men and their mental health? We don’t always hear about the impact infertility has on men from an emotional and psychological view. Johannes was born in France and came to the US in 2007 as a post-doctoral fellow at MIT, leading a research project aboard the international space station. He is a material scientist by training (science of plastic). Johannes is currently working on transitioning the plastic packaging of a large beauty corporation to 100% recycled by 2030. He is also an infertility coach. Johannes’ journey with infertility started in early 2011, when he was diagnosed with poor semen quality. He went through several IVF cycles as a man, including a miscarriage at 12 weeks. He did not receive much help or support at the time and was not ready for it. Johannes recently joined a Resolve support group and was encouraged to start his own men's group. His mission is to break the male infertility stigma and create a brotherhood of IVF dads.
