Description
<p>In this solo episode I share all about the mombod- your postpartum body and how to take care of it as well as your mental health and body image. All that I've learned birthing 3 babies and recovering postpartum as well as from witnessing 100s of mamas go through their postpartum time while I served in the capacity of a doula or midwife. </p>
