About This Podcast

Society doesn’t always tell the whole truth about birth and postpartum. I'm on a mission to change that. I sit down with my friends, who just happen to be experts in this field as they are mommas too! We get real about the fourth trimester. We're talking about the good, the bad, and the messy. From postpartum depression to breastfeeding struggles, and even birth stories we didn’t ask for!
