136. Postpartum Truths: What New Moms Really Need with Courtney Boylan
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Postpartum is one of the most life-altering seasons of motherhood, and yet it is often one of the most overlooked.
In today’s episode I’m joined by Courtney Boylan, mom of three and founder of Le Lolo, a brand created from her own postpartum experience and the deep realization that so many moms are left feeling unseen, unsupported, and treated more like a checklist than a human being.
Courtney and I talk about the emotional reality of postpartum, the identity shift that happens after birth, and why moms need more than clinical advice. They need reassurance, community, and reminders that they still matter.
This conversation is honest, validating, and full of the kind of support every mom deserves in the early days.
In this episode, we talk about:
- What postpartum really feels like and why it can be so isolating
- The identity shift that happens after becoming a mom
- Why postpartum support often feels too clinical and not personal enough
- The emotional and mental load moms carry in the early days
- How we can better support moms beyond asking “How’s the baby?”
- Encouragement for the mom who feels lost, invisible, or overwhelmed
- What Courtney wishes someone had told her during postpartum
- How Courtney’s experience led her to create Le Lolo
If you’re in postpartum right now
This episode is your reminder that you are not alone, you are not failing, and you still matter.
