Thriving in Motherhood
Baby's First Year
Everything you need to know to take the guesswork out of the first year of motherhood and give you the freedom to focus on what is most important - your baby!
Before I tell you about this incredible program, let me tell you a little about who I made this for...
- The first time mama, who is totally overwhelmed with the amount of information out there on the internet - much of which is not evidence based or created by a healthcare professional.
- The woman who just had her second baby, who wants an easy way to stay up to date with the newest tips, tricks, and research so she can spend more time fawning over her baby and less time in the Google rabbit hole.
- The newly pregnant woman who wants to feel fully prepared and confident when her baby arrives with a resource she can refer back to any time a question or issue pops up.
By the end of this program,
you will have…
-

I can’t wait for you to join Thriving in Motherhood
Becoming a mama changed my life in ways I didn't imagine were possible.
I experienced what it was like first hand to feel unprepared for motherhood - there is SO much that people don't talk about. My first postpartum experience was riddled with doubt and questioning that I don't want any mama to have to feel.
By combining my education as a Family Medicine Physician, countless hours spent reading and researching, and my personal motherhood experience (x 2!), I have created this invaluable resource for you.
We all want nothing more than the best for our littles, and I feel so lucky to be able to make this a little easier for you mama.
Should you choose to accept my invitation, I personally guarantee that these next 6 weeks will be completely and utterly life changing for you and your family.
All my love,
