23. The Reality of Pregnancy and Postpartum

04/20/23 • 31 min

There is a specific narrative around pregnancy and postpartum, and a huge piece of this narrative is not discussed. This week, I am joined by Iliamari Vazquez Houston, a trauma therapist who specializes in postpartum journeys.
We discuss the honest & vulnerable parts of pregnancy and postpartum. Not the parts that are glorified, but the parts that are often left out of the discussion. Learn how to shift our discussions and understanding so that we can authentically connect and support ourselves and those around us. Join in now on this conversation!

We have a lot of unlearning to do when it comes to familiar patterns and behaviors, but we must first have an awareness. We are moving from generational trauma to generational healing!
