Episode 71 - Dr. Khushboo Joshi, board-certified orthopedic clinical specialist and pelvic floor physical therapist, joins us for an eye-opening conversation to explore how different cultures around the world honor and support women in the sacred postpartum period.

Drawing from her extensive experience and cross-cultural research, Khushboo compares the American approach—often marked by isolation, minimal medical follow-up, and pressure to “bounce back”—with the restorative traditions of India and South Korea, where new mothers are cared for, nourished, and truly given time to heal.

Whether you’re a new mom, a grandmother, a healthcare provider, or simply someone who wants to better support the women in your life, this episode will leave you inspired to rethink postpartum recovery—and to advocate for rest, nourishment, and community as non-negotiables in women’s health.
