112. Leveling Up & Next Chapters: Getting Married, Trying To Conceive & Managing PCOS with Ella Rose McFadin

April 21, 2026 · 52 min

Show notes

In today's episode, Elizabeth sits down with Ella Rose McFadden, content creator and founder of clean beauty brand Skin by Ella Rose. They talk about the tender, transitional season they are both navigating: newly married and trying to conceive. Ella opens up about her PCOS diagnosis in her early twenties, the dismissive early doctor experiences that followed, and how finding the right fertility specialist changed her relationship with her own body.


They get into the mental shift of switching from preventing pregnancy to actively trying for it, the overwhelm of tracking data from the Oura Ring and Mira monitor, and why sometimes less information is more. Ella also shares what dry January taught her about sleep, energy, and nervous system regulation. This conversation is not about having it all figured out. It is about slowing down and trusting your body through a big life transition.
