Your six-week postpartum checkup is often seen as the finish line for recovery, but let’s be real: does a quick chat about birth control and a number on the scale really reflect how you’re doing?

In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on what postpartum healing actually looks like beyond that standard appointment. We’re talking about how to nourish your hormones, protect your metabolism, and stop letting the scale define your progress. Because thriving postpartum isn’t about shrinking your body, it’s about replenishing it. 💪✨

You’ll hear my personal experience with postpartum checkups (including how triggering the scale was), what I focused on those first few months, and how my approach shifted after each of my babies.

Let this episode be your reminder: healing is not a one-size-fits-all process and your body deserves more than just a weigh-in.
