One tip: Create an alter! Then fill it with all your favorite childhood items as a reminder to honor the little version of you.
It was really important to have a licensed mental health professional on the podcast and Cynthia has over 15 years in community mental health. We discuss postpartum, the fog that often comes with it and why mamas should give themselves more grace, love, and tenderness during this time.
