Quiet The Clock

Infertility, egg freezing, and IVF can be as emotionally complex as they are medically complex. In honor of National Infertility Awareness Week, we are re-sharing this powerful conversation about the mental health side of fertility treatments. Beth sits down with fertility specialist Dr. Anate Brauer, MD, Board Certified OBGYN, to talk about what women are rarely prepared for when navigating fertility decisions. From egg freezing and IVF to the emotional rollercoaster of hope, anger, grief, and empowerment, this conversation pulls back the curtain on the real experience many women face. Dr. Brauer explains the key differences between egg freezing vs. embryo freezing, common misconceptions about fertility timelines, and what he wishes more patients understood before starting treatment. They also explore why mental health support, therapy, and compassionate care are essential parts of the fertility journey. Whether you are considering egg freezing, going through IVF, or simply feeling the pressure of the biological clock, this episode offers reassurance that there is no single timeline for building a family. During National Infertility Awareness Week, we're amplifying conversations like this one to remind you: you are not alone, and your path to family can take many forms.   ABOUT OUR GUEST: Guest: Dr. Anate Brauer, MD Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/dranatebrauer/  Chick Mission - www.thechickmission.org Website - www.rmany.com   Dr. Brauer is a member of the American Congress of Obstetrics and Gynecology, earned her medical degree from George Washington University School of Medicine and completed her OB/GYN residency at New York Presbyterian-Weill Cornell, followed by a fellowship in Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility at Weill Cornell.

If you are in the middle of your fertility journey, this episode is for you. After navigating the heartbreak and uncertainty of secondary infertility, Beth shares a deeply honest update at 6 weeks postpartum. This isn't just about what it's like to finally have her baby boy, it's about the emotional reality that doesn't simply disappear once you reach this chapter. In this episode, she opens up about what life truly feels like in the early weeks of motherhood, the unexpected emotional layers that come with having a baby after infertility, and the parts no one really prepares you for. There is joy, of course, but there is also reflection, gratitude, and a continued connection to the version of herself who was still waiting. If you are still trying to conceive, still hoping, still in the unknown, please hear this: you are not behind, you are not forgotten, and your story still matters deeply. Beth is holding space for you in this conversation and always will. This community was built on honesty, and that doesn't end here. Wherever you are in your journey, whether you're trying, grieving, waiting, or healing, we are right here with you.   SHOP MERCH ON THE QTC SHOP: https://quiettheclock.com/shop/ Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCDK6Dcq-u28XL60I_y4hskQ/join — #BethGulotta #QuietTheClock #eggfreezing #podcastforwomen GO SUBSCRIBE on All Streaming Platforms!!

In this episode of Quiet the Clock, Beth grabs the mic and answers real questions straight from the audience, from both men and women who are trying to make sense of dating, relationships, and all the pressure that seems to come with them. No scripts. No sugarcoating. Just honest, therapist-level insight into the questions people are actually asking but rarely say out loud. From When do I bring up what I really want? to How do I stop overthinking every interaction? Beth breaks down what healthy communication, vulnerability, and emotional maturity really look like in modern dating. The conversation weaves through everything from misaligned timelines and fertility worries to the quiet chaos social media creates when it comes to comparison and expectations. Along the way, Beth reminds us that clarity is not too much, curiosity is powerful, and you're not "behind" just because your path looks different. Think of this episode as part group chat, part therapy session, and part deep exhale. You'll walk away with practical takeaways, mindset shifts, and a little more confidence to ask the questions that actually matter. We wrap things up with a few favorite wellness recommendations to help keep your nervous system intact while dating in the wild. Press play if you're dating, questioning, overthinking, or just want to feel less alone in it all.    Affiliate Links:    Osea - Skincare By The Sea - Use code QTCPOD10 to receive a one time use 10% off your order at oseamalibu.com Mowellens - Organic.

What happens when the person who supports everyone else starts questioning their own path? In this powerful and deeply relatable episode, Beth sits down with therapist Sam Dalton, LCSW, aka "Sam the Therapist" on Instagram for an honest conversation about mental health, burnout, perfectionism, and trusting yourself through life's transitions. Sam opens up about her personal and professional journey as a therapist, sharing what it's really like behind the scenes of the helping profession. We talk candidly about burnout in therapy, redefining success, letting go of unrealistic expectations, and the pressure to have it all figured out. If you've ever felt stuck, exhausted, or disconnected from the life you thought you were "supposed" to want, this conversation will land. Together, Beth and Sam explore how to build self-compassion, embrace discomfort instead of avoiding it, and reconnect with your inner sense of self-trust, even when everything feels uncertain. This episode is a reminder that growth often feels messy, success doesn't look one way, and kindness toward yourself is not optional, it's essential.

What happens when you stop living life on everyone else's timeline and start honoring your own? In this episode of Quiet the Clock, Beth sits down with Rachel Liverman, founder of Glowbar, for a candid, deeply refreshing conversation about choosing authenticity over expectation. From growing up in a same-sex parent household to building a successful beauty brand, Rachel's story challenges nearly every "should" we're handed about marriage, fertility, aging, and success. Rachel opens up about therapy, divorce, egg freezing, entrepreneurship, and the emotional weight of doing life differently. With honesty, humor, and hard-earned wisdom, she shares how mental health became a lifelong anchor and why optimism, self-compassion, and self-trust matter more than hitting milestones on time. If you've ever felt behind, off-track, or quietly questioning the timeline you were taught to follow, this conversation will feel like permission to breathe. No hustle worship. No comparison spiral. Just a powerful reminder that there is no single right way to build a meaningful life. Hit play if you're ready to quiet the noise, trust your timing, and glow on your own terms    FOLLOW OUR GUEST: Rachel Liverman is the founder and CEO of Glowbar, the fastest-growing skincare brand transforming the way people think about facials. With a bold vision and deep industry roots, Rachel has redefined the category, building a brand that's made expert-led, results-driven skincare a non-negotiable part of any wellness routine. A third-generation esthetician, Rachel grew up steeped in the world of skincare. Her grandmother, Catherine Hinds, was a pioneer in the field — launching a chain of salons in the 1960s, creating her own product line, and founding the first accredited esthetics school in the U.S. in 1979. This legacy didn't just influence Rachel, it lit the fire that would become Glowbar. Since launching in 2019, Rachel has shaped Glowbar into a cult-followed powerhouse with 20+ studios, a growing product line, and two consecutive appearances on the Inc. 5000 list. Under her leadership, the brand has scaled a new category called wellcare: the convergence of modern healthcare and wellness rituals that center on services that are convenient and consistent. Rachel drives the company's brand, experience, product strategy, and expansion, bringing both rigor and soul to every decision. Prior to founding Glowbar, she spent over a decade in the beauty industry, building expertise across marketing, education, and operations. In 2023, she led the company through a $10M Series A raise to accelerate growth and scale its impact. Her mission is clear: to redefine clinical-grade skincare as a form of everyday healthcare and to help people feel confident in their skin.   Social media pages: - Instagram @rachelista @glowbar - LinkedIn rachelliverman - TikTok @getglowbar   Websites: - https://glowbar.com - https://linkin.bio/rachelista/ - https://shopmy.us/rachelista   We Also Talk About: Living life on one's own timeline and embracing non-traditional paths.

What if the detours, heartbreaks, and awkward in-between years were never delays, but preparation? Beth pulls back the curtain on her real journey through dating, relationships, and the uncomfortable season of being single when everyone else seems to be "moving ahead." She opens up about repeating old patterns, the lessons heartbreak forced her to face, and the inner work that finally changed how she chose partners and herself. Rather than chasing milestones or rushing love, Beth shares how slowing down, embracing singlehood, and doing honest self-reflection ultimately led her to a healthier, more aligned relationship later in life. This episode is for anyone who's tired of feeling behind, questioning their choices, or wondering if they missed their window. Beth challenges societal timelines around love and success and invites you to trust your own pace. If you've ever felt pressure to have it all figured out by a certain age, this conversation will help you breathe, rethink the narrative, and remember that fulfillment doesn't follow a clock. Watch if you're navigating dating fatigue, redefining your timeline, or learning to choose yourself before choosing a partner.    We Also Talk About: Personal journey through dating and relationships Late start in dating and societal pressures Reflection on long-term relationships and their challenges Impact of addiction in a partner on relationships Importance of self-awareness and understanding attachment styles Embracing single life and personal growth Patterns of choosing emotionally unavailable partners The significance of patience and self-reflection in finding love Recognition of the value of past experiences in shaping current relationships Encouragement to live authentically and on one's own timeline Resources Subscribe on YouTube Subscribe on Apple Podcasts Subscribe on Spotify Follow on Instagram Follow on TikTok Follow on Pinterest Therapy Support Website   Visit the QTC Website for our current list of Affiliates: https://quiettheclock.com/    Affiliate Links:  Osea - Skincare By The Sea - Use code QTCPOD10 to receive a one time use 10% off your order at oseamalibu.com Mowellens - Organic.

In this episode, Dr. Natalie Crawford MD, a board-certified OB-GYN and reproductive endocrinologist, and author of The Fertility Formula, joins Beth for a refreshingly honest conversation that blends medical expertise with lived experience.

You'll hear why early fertility testing matters, what key labs like AMH and thyroid levels can reveal, and how lifestyle and chronic inflammation quietly impact reproductive outcomes.

Friendships don't usually end with a bang. They fade. They shift. They quietly stop fitting the life you're living now. In this episode of Quiet The Clock, Beth goes deep into the unspoken reality of adult friendships. The kind no one warns you about. The slow drifting. The sudden jealousy when someone else's life moves faster. The grief that shows up when a friendship doesn't survive a new season. Beth shares personal stories you haven't heard before and reintroduces her powerful "Friendship Pyramid," a simple but eye-opening tool to help you understand who truly belongs in your inner circle and who may be meant for a different tier or a different chapter altogether. This conversation is honest, tender, and grounding. It's about learning when to fight for a friendship, when to release it without guilt, and how to make room for new connections without betraying your past. If you've ever felt confused, lonely, or quietly heartbroken about a friendship that changed, this episode will make you feel deeply seen. Because growing up also means grieving friendships and choosing them with intention.    We Also Talk About: The evolving nature of friendships as people age and experience life changes. The emotional complexities of friendship breakups and ruptures. Personal experiences of feeling disconnected from friends due to differing life stages. The importance of honest communication in addressing feelings like jealousy and envy in friendships. Introduction of the "friendship pyramid" exercise to categorize friendships based on closeness and support. Strategies for making new friends in adulthood, including joining social groups and activities. The significance of grieving the loss of friendships and appreciating their past value. The societal tendency to prioritize romantic relationships over friendships. The need for regular self-assessment of friendships to ensure they meet current needs. Encouragement to invest time and effort into friendships, recognizing their importance in overall well-being.

What happens when you freeze your eggs at 39, leave a high-pressure TV career, and finally stop forcing life to follow a script? In this episode of Quiet the Clock, Beth sits down with Julie LaPlaca, who went from producing The Bachelor to becoming a hypnotherapist, to explore fertility, fear, and the art of trusting yourself when society's timeline grows louder. Julie opens up about her decision to freeze her eggs at 39, the emotional weight of age and societal expectations, and what it really felt like to step away from a career that looked "successful" on paper but no longer fit. She shares how hypnotherapy, spirituality, and nervous system work helped her move through uncertainty, reconnect with her intuition, and soften into life instead of white-knuckling it. We also dive into Julie's upcoming book, The Love Producer, where she explores love, vulnerability, and the courage it takes to stop performing and start living authentically. If you're navigating fertility decisions, questioning your career path, or feeling behind in any area of life, this episode is a reminder that there is no expiration date on becoming yourself.   ABOUT OUR GUEST: Julie LaPlaca is a seasoned television producer with over two decades of experience working in the entertainment industry. Most notably, she spent years crafting some of reality TV's most iconic love stories as a supervising producer on The Bachelor franchise. She is also an author, life coach, hypnotherapist, and the founder of The Love Producer, a personal development brand devoted to helping others produce the love they desire in their lives.  Julie writes about her transition from producing happily-ever-afters for others, to embarking on her own journey for love in her upcoming memoir, The Love Producer, releasing in July 2026. She is now dedicated to flipping the script—guiding others (and herself) on the greatest journey of all: finding the love within.

Beth sits down with Amanda for a raw, honest conversation that goes far beyond the clinical side of fertility treatment. Amanda opens up about the emotional and physical toll of IVF, the unique heartbreak of unexplained infertility, and the quiet grief that follows miscarriage. This is the part of the journey most people carry alone. Together, they unpack why so many people feel unprepared for infertility, how little education and support actually exists, and why silence can make an already isolating experience feel unbearable. The conversation moves into the power of community, shared language, and knowing you are not broken or failing. Amanda also walks through her personal decision-making around genetic testing and how she transformed her experience into advocacy through her Instagram, Made with Love and IVF. Her story is equal parts grounding, validating, and hopeful. If you have ever wondered why this topic feels so heavy, why no one seems to talk about it until you are living it, or if you need a reminder that you are not alone, this episode is for you.    FOLLOW OUR GUEST: Amanda Samojedny Amanda is a mom of two living children who knows firsthand that the journey to motherhood isn't always straightforward.

IVF rarely makes room for men and this episode of Quiet The Clock changes that. Beth sits down with Brett Eaton for an unfiltered conversation about what IVF looks like through a male lens. The pressure to stay strong. The quiet grief. The awkward moments no one warns you about and the emotional weight men are expected to carry without a roadmap.

ABOUT OUR GUEST: Bijou Finney The Mushroom Mamasita,  Medicine Woman, Integration Alchemist, and Retreat Creatrix  I am a coach/ facilitator specializing in visionary life design for conscious entrepreneurs, couples & women desiring to come alive. My special mix of psychosomatic, plant medicine education, and therapeutic coaching heals wounds and clears blocks within the realms of pleasure, purpose, prosperity, persona and power.  Maybe I owe it to my parents for naming me Bijou — a French word meaning "precious little gem" or "trinket." That name must've planted a seed in me early on: that my life was something to be treasured. Over the years, I've done the deep work to understand that truth on a cellular level. Why? Because I've seen what happens when we forget. When we disconnect from our inherent value, it shows up as burnout, discontent, and dis-ease.

The challenges of self-connection and self-love in a society that often promotes self-hate. The process of dismantling negative narratives to foster new perspectives and healing. The growing interest in alternative therapies and the cultural shift towards deeper healing practices.

Get ready, because this episode of Quiet the Clock is a ride. I'm joined by the incredible Katie Bryan, founder of The Single Greatest Choice, and she brings the kind of honesty and "I'm doing life my way" energy we absolutely love around here. Katie opens up about her raw, very real journey to single motherhood by choice — navigating divorce, fertility challenges, miscarriage, and the emotional roller coaster that comes with pursuing motherhood on your own terms. She shares how she shifted from a mindset of scarcity to one rooted in radical self-trust, and how rebuilding her support system, redefining community, and giving herself permission to choose differently changed everything. This episode invites you to challenge the old narratives around motherhood, release the pressure of timelines, and celebrate women who carve out their own path — even when it looks nothing like what society expects. Katie's story is powerful, human, and full of the kind of insight that stays with you long after you listen.   ABOUT OUR GUEST:  Katie Bryan is a mindset coach, community facilitator, and host of The Single Greatest Choice Podcast. She lives in Austin, Texas, with her adorable 4-and-a-half-year-old son, Miles, and poorly behaved cocker spaniel mix, Oliver. Motherhood was always part of Katie's plan, but doing it alone wasn't. When she found herself single in her late 30s, solo motherhood felt like a last resort—but surprisingly it became the single greatest choice of her life. That unexpected decision brought more fulfillment than she ever imagined, both in the experience of motherhood and in the community she's fostered. With her own pivot into solo parenting, Katie was determined to create a vibrant community of bold, brave women navigating the decision to parent on their own. Now, she's dedicated to helping these women find clarity, confidence, and connection on their solo motherhood journeys—because while we may be single, we don't have to walk this road alone. Links: Www.instagram.com/single_greatest_choice Www.singlegreatestchoice.com We Also Talk About: Katie Bryan's personal journey to single motherhood by choice. Experiences with relationships, including divorce and dating challenges. Fertility issues, including egg freezing and intrauterine insemination (IUI). Emotional and societal pressures surrounding motherhood and fertility timelines. The importance of emotional readiness versus biological timing in motherhood decisions.
