In this solo episode, I’m sharing how I’m approaching postpartum differently this time around—and how you can plan ahead too. From setting up tangible support systems to prioritizing self-care, this episode is packed with real talk and resources for a smoother postpartum experience.

Here’s what I’m covering:

  • Hiring a postpartum doula (and adding it to my registry as a fund!)
  • Creating a list of local support options in advance—including lactation consultants (paid and free)
  • Setting up appointments with a pelvic floor physical therapist
  • Mental health prep: identifying providers that take my insurance
  • Why I’m including chiropractic and acupuncture care postpartum
  • How I’m prioritizing nourishment with food delivery services and meal kits
  • My renewed focus on self-care—and what that really looks like this time
  • Simple ways I’m asking for help (think: visitor task lists!)
  • … and more little changes making a big difference

✨ Whether you're a first-time mom or prepping for baby number two, this episode is a gentle reminder: You deserve support too.
