Key takeaways 

• When your bra isn’t fitting correctly, it can cause a lot of physical pain - poor posture, shoulder strain, neck tension (6:08)
• The gore (the section between the cups) should lay flat against your skin - if it is sticking away from your body, it means the cup size is too small (9:00)
• How often should you be getting fitted? Every year. Bras have a 9-10 month life cycle (15:52)
• Recommend having 3-4 everyday bras so you can rotate and extend each bras life cycle. Sports bras they recommend having 1-2, more if you’re really active (17:00)
• Cleaning your bras - hand washing in the sink is gold standard. If using the washing machine, use the hand wash cycle and hook up the back so it doesn't get attached to other clothes or the machine (19:30)
• Don’t ever put your bra in the dryer, it will destroy it (21:56)
• Top nursing bra recommendation: Hot Milk, Panache, Elomi (22:37)
• Where your bra should sit in the back: bras are like teeter-totters. Band should be lower in the back so it lifts you up in the front. If your band is too high in the back you will look saggy (27:22)
