96. Postpartum Struggles and How to Avoid Them with Brenna Ruiz
Welcome back to the New Mom Boss Podcast! When I was pregnant, I remember thinking that all the details were just going to fall into place. The nursery was complete, the registry was finished, and I was “ready”. Except I wasn’t. My guest, Brenna, Ruiz, has a story very similar to mine, proving that knowing something is vastly different than experiencing it. Brenna is a self-care advocate, professional writer, and mom of one from Minnesota. She started "What About Mamas?" after having no idea how to take care of her own needs after having her son. In our conversation, she shares more about the circumstances surrounding her traumatic birth, her tips for moms on how to prepare well before delivery, and more about her monthly motherhood self-care community, Village. Some big takeaways are:While there are some things you can’t prepare for, there is still so much you CAN know ahead of time.It truly takes a village.While postpartum might feel isolating, you are not alone. There is a community of women feeling the SAME as you!
