Co-hosted each week by Liz Winters ( Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, certified pre and post-natal coach, Birthfit Regional Director, and mama) and Jenny Anderson (doula, Birthfit Regional Director, and mama). Our hope is to inspire, educate, and empower women as they navigate pregnancy, postpartum, and parenthood with evidence based guidance, informative interviews, and entertaining anecdotes from our perspectives as moms, entrepreneurs, and birth professionals.
