Today we welcome our guests Cindi Michaelson and Crissy Fishbane hosts of the Mama Needs a Moment podcast and founders of HER Health Collective.

HER Health Collective is a small business led by two women with a big social mission to revolutionize the way mothers take care of themselves physically, mentally, and emotionally. They are dedicated to improving postpartum care for women in the United States, where maternal outcomes are often ranked last compared to other developed nations. This gap in care is a serious flaw in our healthcare system.

As the founders of HER Health Collective, Cindi and Crissy are motivated by knowledge of this massive flaw in how our healthcare system serves mothers and how it has affected them personally in their own motherhood journeys. They saw a need to provide real support for the mothers in this country and set out to build a system that would better serve them.

HER Health Collective has a two-pronged approach to serving moms. The first key component is their resource network, including a panel of experts and library of vetted content, that provides moms easy access to trusted information. The second key component is our supportive and welcoming community, called HER Circle. This community has been intentionally created to help moms build authentic and genuine relationships with other mothers. They know that if a mom is armed with these two key components - trusted knowledge and a supportive community - she can conquer any challenge.

Today we chat about:

• Maternal Mental Health
• The challenge of making friends as an adult but especially moms
• The Goddess myth: what it is, why it's dangerous, and how we can manage expectations
• What it means to "take care of yourself" as a mom - we're not just talking bubble baths here
• Diet culture and it's impact on this generation of moms
• and SO much more

Join our MARCH Self Care Challenge!

• Message me on Instagram or join our Free Facebook Community 
• Do one small thing (or big thing) every day in March to prioritize your own needs as we move into the spring season.

When was the last time you were quiet and still without any external stimulation like music or a podcast? When was the last time you took a couple deep breaths or tried a meditation? 

I challenge you to take your coffee time, your walk, your one minute of peace in the car before grabbing the kids from daycare, etc. and just breathe.

Give this a try and I promise it will change your day...maybe even your life!
