Liane Moccia | The Real 50 over 50

About me

Liane Moccia (RH)AHG is a Registered Herbalist specializing in fertility and preconception planning. She combines herbs, nutrition, and lifestyle changes with a clear plan to help optimize fertility. Liane’s own infertility diagnosis led her to the healing power of plants and, ultimately, a career change to help others on similar journeys.

Liane spent 20 years in corporate marketing before delving into the healing power of plants. She went back to school, studied herbalism, became a certified herbalist, was accepted as a peer-reviewed registered professional herbalist with the American Herbalists Guild, and completed a year-long mentorship with a renowned naturopathic fertility doctor in Boston.

Liane lives in the Boston area and works with clients one-on-one from all over the country over Zoom.

Whether you are in your first year of trying, in the middle of IVF cycles, or somewhere in between, a holistic herbal plan can support you and your ultimate goal of optimal fertility and a healthy pregnancy.

What do you do and why do you do it?

I support individuals and couples in optimizing their fertility through herbs, nutrition, lifestyle changes, and a clear plan. Trying to conceive can be incredibly frustrating, confusing, lonely, and sometimes overwhelming. There is so much more you can do than just take a prenatal and hope for the best! You have much more control over your fertility (and your partner’s) than you may realize. You don’t have to do this alone. Having a clear plan can take so much pressure off of you to try and “hack” your own fertility.

I do this work because I also struggled with infertility. I understand how it feels to be deeply disappointed every month and wonder if you are doing everything possible to become pregnant. Having been in practice now for 8 years, I have seen what a difference herbs and nutrition can make for people trying to conceive. I wish I knew then what I know now. There was SO MUCH MORE I could have done during that first year of “just trying”.

What changed for you after age 50?

After turning 50, I’ve found a deeper sense of confidence in who I am. I’ve come to realize that I have something valuable to offer others, but I also recognize that everyone is on their own unique path. It’s become clear to me that my role is not to “fix” anyone, because they aren’t broken. Instead, I can offer support, guidance, and compassion, meeting people exactly where they are in their journey. This shift has brought a sense of peace and clarity to how I engage with others.

What would you tell the 20 or 30-year-old YOU?

I would tell my 20- or 30-year-old self to trust the process and not rush to have everything figured out. You don’t need to have all the answers right now, and it’s okay to grow at your own pace. Embrace who you are becoming, and know that you have something valuable to offer, even if it doesn’t feel that way yet. Most importantly, understand that people aren’t projects to fix; they’re individuals with their own paths, and the best thing you can do is offer support, not solutions. Patience and compassion—for yourself and others—will serve you well.

What do you think you’ll tell yourself in retrospect at the end of your life?

At the end of my life, I think I’ll be able to tell myself that I lived authentically, embraced who I truly am, and offered my gifts to the world with an open heart. I’ll also find comfort in knowing that I honored my own journey, with all its ups and downs, trusting that each step was part of a greater purpose. Ultimately, I’ll feel peace, knowing I lived with compassion and integrity.

What impact do you think increased visibility can have on your business?

Increased visibility will help address one of my biggest challenges: people not knowing this kind of support exists. I often hear, “I wish I knew about you when I was trying to get pregnant!” With more visibility, I can reach more people, giving them access to the help they need. This will allow me to make a bigger impact and support more individuals on their fertility journey.

Who or what inspires you and why?

I’m inspired by the work non-profits like AllPaths are doing to raise awareness around fertility struggles and reproductive rights. They provide a safe space for people to share their experiences and find support, which is so important in a journey that can often feel isolating. Their commitment to advocacy and education makes a real difference, helping to ensure people have access to the resources and community they need. It’s a reminder of the power of collective support in making a meaningful impact on individual lives.

Something else I’d like to share

In addition to my private practice that specializes in fertility and preconception planning, I have a book coming out in 2025 that offers evidence-based strategies to support egg quality, sperm quality, and overall fertility—helping to increase the chances of conception. The book is in its final stages of editing with the publisher.
