Whether you’re scrolling through TikTok or Instagram these days, you’re bound to come across the “mental health walk” trend. A time when people take a break from their everyday stressors to go on a walk for the mere pleasure of leaving behind their troubles, maybe connecting with others, but definitely stopping to smell the roses along the way.

The best companion on these walks? Podcasts. While we may all have our favorite news or true crime podcasts, there’s also something to be said about those podcasts that help us feel less alone, while we take long, hard walks (both literally and figuratively).

What are the best infertility podcasts out there?

These podcasts humanize the 1 in 8 infertility statistics and host conversations about how those impacted with infertility or pregnancy loss can – or already are – navigating their journeys.
