Episode 2: Love Notes to Future Postpartum Us, Pt. 1: Postpartum Realities

Send us a text

Join us as Emily and Cally dive into the intimate experience of navigating body changes postpartum. As we discuss the absence of a clear postpartum roadmap, Emily shares her desire for guidance, while Cally offers a dose of reality: it’s a journey with no set rules. We tackle feelings of body betrayal post-delivery, the primal instincts that emerge, and the sometimes overwhelming descent into motherhood.

We also touch on the simple joys and struggles of food, the little purchases that boost our confidence, and the myriad sensations—pain, swelling, and weepiness—that accompany this new chapter. With a focus on inviting all the feels, we reflect on the unique identity shift that comes with motherhood, juxtaposing imposter syndrome in our careers with the profound evolution of becoming a mom.

This episode is all about embracing the journey, finding community, and trusting our own truths. Tune in for a heartfelt conversation that reminds us: this too shall pass.
