Jess For Moms Podcast
As a post-birth coach, I'm here to help bridge the gap from delivery of your baby to the 6 week appointment (and beyond into motherhood).
There are a lot of resources for taking care of your baby. While that is super important, this podcast is different. This is a resource JUST for moms.
I'm here to help you take care of you so that you can thrive in the postpartum/new mom stage instead of just survive. And when you are taking great care of yourself, you will take great care of your baby too. I promise.
