[BONUS] Self-Care for Moms & Postpartum Doula Research: "Secret Mom Hacks" Crossover

Emotional Abuse Is Real

Send us a text

Instead of my usual “Emotional Abuse Is Real” content this week, I have another special bonus episode for your listening pleasure. I’m back as a guest on Krista Dykes’ “Secret Mom Hacks” podcast, and this time we are talking about one of my favorite topics: Self-care for moms (a quick note on that: You do NOT have to be a mom to indulge in any of the self-care suggestions I make on this episode. Everyone needs self-care.)
Krista also allows me to share about my terrible experience with a postpartum doula when my daughter was born eight years ago. To be clear, I think postpartum doulas offer wonderful support to moms, but as you’ll discover from listening to my cautionary tale, it’s imperative that you do your research before hiring someone for this critical period after your child arrives.

As always, I’m so grateful to Krista for letting me chat with her about these subjects, and I’m thrilled to now share it as a bonus on my own podcast feed.

“Emotional Abuse Is Real” will return with brand-new guests next week on October 23. Until then, please enjoy this bonus episode of my recent appearance on “Secret Mom Hacks.”
