Should postpartum moms be counting macros? Or is there a simpler way to fuel your body without obsessing over numbers?

In this episode of the Strong & Nourished Momma Podcast, I’m breaking down what protein, fat, and carbs actually do for your postpartum body—and why each is essential for fat loss, energy, and hormone health. You’ll learn why most moms under-eat protein, why healthy fats are critical for hormones and mood, and why cutting carbs can actually backfire on your energy and recovery.

I’ll also share my personal approach: I don’t count macros daily, but I’ll log occasionally to check in and make sure I’m getting enough—because awareness is powerful, but obsession isn’t necessary.

If you’ve been confused about carbs, worried you’re not eating enough protein, or just want to know how to balance your plate without dieting—this episode is for you.
