Today Heidi interviewed Cora Howard, a mother of two and the owner of Write to Heal, a coaching program for birthing people that have experienced cesarean births. Here is a little more about Cora Howard and this episode.

In Cora's words: "In this episode, we’ll explore the emotional journey of recovering from a C-section and rediscovering your sense of self. I’ll share my personal birth stories, including the challenges and transformations I experienced after two C-sections, and how these led to the creation of my mindfulness-based coaching program, Write to Heal. We’ll also discuss tools for emotional resilience and how to empower yourself through writing, mindfulness, and community support."

 

3 Key takeaways from the podcast that listeners will learn today:

• Why emotional healing after a C-section is just as important as physical recovery.

• How mindfulness and therapeutic writing can help moms reclaim their sense of identity.

• Practical tips for fostering emotional resilience and facing postpartum challenges with courage.

Favorite baby product or new motherhood product? What would you buy for someone who was currently pregnant or a new parent?: The Harbor Baby Monitor (https://harbor.co/products/harbor) is my favorite! It’s a smart, modern monitor designed to provide peace of mind for parents. What makes it even better is their trade-in program, so you can upgrade your current baby monitor for Harbor’s high-quality system.
