Someone online tells you “your skin looks like shit” while you’re on your honeymoon in the Maldives... I think somehow that one message became a catalyst for so much change in my life. Listen to find out how that led to one of the biggest decisions of my life: leaving Los Angeles and moving back East to New York while VERY pregnant. I also share something personal that changed how I show up online forever. We talk about why a “new space” can change your mental health, how the idea of a postpartum village affects real-life planning, and what it’s like to commit to a cross-country move 34 weeks pregnant with pets and winter weather waiting on the other side. I get into my full birth story with all the details. We wrap with practical postpartum exercise guidance based on updated postpartum exercise guidelines, plus postpartum hair care, babywearing and motherhood hot takes.
If any of this hits home, subscribe, share this with a friend who needs a real postpartum conversation, and leave a review telling me what part you want to hear more about next!
