In this podcast excerpt, host Josh Trent interviews Dr. Ann Shippy, a board‑certified internal medicine physician, functional‑medicine practitioner, and author of The Preconception Revolution. Dr. Shippy presents a metaphysical framework in which souls seeking human embodiment influence fertility. She argues that parenting begins before conception, with the child’s soul already present and learning prior to birth. In her clinical experience, when parents recognize and acknowledge the soul’s desire to join their family, fertility can improve dramatically, sometimes resulting in “super‑fertile” outcomes. She emphasizes that these prospective parents need strong, healthy bodies to support the soul’s entry, linking spiritual awareness with functional‑medicine strategies for optimal preconception health.

There are souls that are wanting to come into human form, but they're not able to. What I see as possible is really starting parenting before you even conceive. The child starts learning even before birth.
The preconception period is not just a year before, it's the whole life before, essentially. Ann Shippy, MD, is a board-certified internal medicine physician, a certified functional medicine practitioner, and is the author of The Preconception Revolution.
In my practice of what alters fertility, the parent feels the soul, but they're not fertile. They feel there's the soul that wants to come join them, and when I feel that too or acknowledge that with them, it seems to make the whole thing go faster and smoother to have them be fertile or actually super fertile. Like, these souls just pop right in. Some of these parents that I've gotten to work with, they have the same knowing that the souls that are wanting to come into them, through them, join their families, are going to operate a bit different, and they need strong bodies.
What's the operating system that's so different with the Souls wanting to come in?
