Are you navigating baby loss, infertility, or hormonal imbalance and wondering if acupuncture could help?

In this insightful episode of The Worst Girl Gang Ever, hosts Bex Gunn and Laura Buckingham welcome Kimberly Shepherd, fertility acupuncturist and founder of Life and Lemons Clinic, to uncover how acupuncture can support fertility, IVF, miscarriage recovery, menstrual irregularities, and the emotional rollercoaster that comes with trying to conceive.

Kimberly shares her expert perspective on how acupuncture improves blood flow to reproductive organs, supports the nervous system, and helps regulate inflammation and immune responses—all vital to reproductive and emotional wellbeing. Plus, the hosts share their personal success stories with acupuncture and break down common myths and stigma.

Whether you're seeking natural fertility support, struggling with unexplained infertility, or trying to heal after pregnancy loss, this episode offers practical insights, emotional validation, and empowering conversation.

In this episode we discuss:

  • How acupuncture can help with miscarriage recovery, infertility, endometriosis, PCOS, IVF support, and hormonal imbalance

  • What actually happens in a fertility acupuncture consultation

  • Why blood flow and stress regulation are key to reproductive health

  • What tongue diagnosis and pulse reading can reveal about your internal health

  • The difference between accredited fertility acupuncturists vs. untrained practitioners

  • The emotional toll of fertility journeys and how acupuncture can be part of your self-care toolkit

  • Why feeling looked after matters just as much as the needles themselves
