Navigating Fertility at Work: Breaking the Silence

In this week’s episode of the Work It Like a Mum podcast, we sit down with HR leader, accredited coach, fertility specialist, and returning guest Kali Crow to discuss one of the most overlooked workplace challenges: navigating fertility treatment whilst building a career.

Drawing on both her professional expertise and personal experience of IVF, Kali shares practical advice, honest reflections and compassionate guidance for anyone experiencing fertility challenges, pregnancy loss or reproductive health issues.

What we cover:

  •  Kali’s journey into fertility coaching
  •  The impact of fertility treatment on careers, confidence and mental well-being
  •  Practical ways to manage work alongside IVF and treatment
  •  Setting boundaries and building the right support network
  •  Coaching vs counselling
  •  How employers can better support employees experiencing fertility challenges
  •  The Fertility Workplace Pledge and why it matters.

Key takeaways:

💜 You’re not alone, and you don’t have to navigate fertility treatment alone.

💜 The right support can make a huge difference to your wellbeing and career.

💜 Employers can create more inclusive workplaces through greater awareness, empathy and practical support.
