Postpartum University® Podcast

Maranda Bower is an expert when it comes to postpartum nutrition and as a physical therapist who specializes in postpartum exercise, I am always seeking expert advice when it comes to other areas of health and wellness to further assist my clients in their recovery. I trust Maranda and the specialists she brings on her show. This podcast is a wonderful resource. -Jena, The Fit Postpartum Mom

As a psychotherapist and life coach specializing in perinatal mental health, I find the content and perspectives shared on this podcast not only insightful but absolutely critical for both providers and new mothers navigating the perinatal journey. The podcast brings much-needed attention to aspects of the postpartum period that are often overlooked or under-discussed in the medical realm. I deeply appreciate how it highlights the importance of emotional, mental, and relational support during this transformative time. What I especially love is how the podcast empowers both mothers and birth care professionals to come together and share wisdom. This collaborative approach strengthens the support systems around new families and babies, ultimately helping to create a more holistic, informed, and compassionate experience for all involved. This podcast is an invaluable resource for anyone working with new moms or for moms themselves seeking understanding and empowerment during the postpartum period.

As a Dual-Certified Postpartum Doula and Newborn Care Specialist, with my own prior history of perinatal mental health disorders, the moment I found Maranda and Postpartum University, I knew it was for me. For years, I overlooked a simple, but necessary component of my postpartum healing. It’s more than just the food you put into your body - it’s the self love, self care, and self respect that comes when you choose to nourish yourself.

Maranda Bower’s deep expertise shines through in every episode, providing the evidence-based information we all need but rarely get from the traditional healthcare system. Her passion for postpartum health is clear, and I love that she’s not afraid to address the real issues like postpartum depression, anxiety, and autoimmune disease.
