The Postpartum Project Chelsea von Kaenel

In today's season finale, Jasmiene, a mom of 2, talks about her shock at how exhausting and difficult her first postpartum experience was, how supportive her second experience was, and how that support led her to wanting to create a community for other new moms. 

Sam tells her story of postpartum depression, healing through therapy and support, and then taking all that knowledge and empowerment into her second postpartum experience.

Andrea’s story of miscarriage, followed by 2 healthy pregnancies and births, and her realization that opening up and sharing her experience helped her feel supported.

Alyssa, a mom of 2 boys, tells her story of emotional struggles in her first postpartum experience, and then taking that knowledge to better advocate for herself the 2nd time.

This episode is a little extra special because I get to talk to Katrina who is a postpartum doula! We talk about how she got into birth work, what’s its like to work with her as a doula, and why postpartum care is so important. 

In this episode I’m talking to Laura. She’s a mom and a doula, and today she talks about her experience with postpartum anxiety, and how that, and her desire to help other birthing people feel supported, led her to birth work.
