What's up ladies, welcome to class! This week we're welcoming birth and postpartum doula Suzzie Vehrs to teach us all about pregnancy and postpartum health, postpartum depression, postpartum deficiencies, how to support new mothers, and more.

We discuss the critical aspects of postpartum care, emphasizing the importance of nutrition, emotional support, and the role of doulas. Suzzie shares her personal journey from finance to becoming a doula, as well as her work addressing the often-overlooked issue of postpartum depression, its overlap with birth trauma, and the need for better maternal care systems.

We also touch on cultural differences in postpartum support, actionable steps for new mothers, and the significance of community in nurturing mothers during this vulnerable time.

If you've had a baby, plan on having a baby one day, or know and love someone in those categories (aka all of us), this episode is for you! It will provide you with powerful information, helpful resources, and real steps to take to make the journey easier and healthier.

What's up ladies, this week we're welcoming Functional Gut Health Consultant and Family Nurse Practitioner Lola MacLean to class!

Have you ever heard the phrase "hot girls have stomach problems?" IBS has become such a hot topic on the internet, among women particularly, that it's almost trendy to have tummy troubles.

IBS is the star this week: We discuss the importance of understanding gut health, particularly for women, as well as the complexities of IBS, and how conventional medicine approaches IBS versus holistic medicine.

We highlight the impact of hormones (hello, estrobolome), the significance of dietary diversity, and the connection between gut health and mental health.

If you've ever wondered what IBS even is, how it's diagnosed, how to treat IBS, the differences in male vs. female microbiomes, and how to best support your gut health, this episode with Lola is made for you!

What's up ladies, welcome to class! This week we're speaking with Dr. Jen Mann, a naturopathic doctor, about her journey through chronic health issues, endometriosis, and the founding of NOVA Wellness.

If you've ever wondered what exactly naturopathic medicine is and if it's right for you, this episode will teach you: We discuss the principles of naturopathic medicine, a naturopathic approach to endometriosis, and the significance of understanding and listening to one's body.

Dr. Mann shares her insights and journey with endometriosis, an extremely inflammatory chronic disease, and the role the immune system plays in it. When it comes to endo, combining conventional and naturopathic therapies is key.

Our conversation also emphasizes the power of intuition in healing and the importance of building a positive relationship with your body.

If any of this resonates with you, make sure to join this class with Dr. Jen Mann!
