When U-Fhern had her first child she returned to the traditional roots and practised 40 days of confinement according to Chinese philosophy.

ur Hosts Larissa and Jessica are joined by U-Fhern to talk about her own personal postpartum journey and what we can learn from these traditional practices.

The word “Doula” is a Greek word that literally means “female slave for the child-bearing woman.” Today the word has come to mean “One who mothers the mother.”
In this episode of No Place Like Homb, Larissa and Jess discuss the role of a Doula through Birth and Postpartum.

For some women, child birth and the journey through postpartum recovery is wonderfully nurturing and empowering. The story is unique for every woman.

In this episode of No Place Like Homb, Jess talks to Larissa about her own experience.

There really is No Place Like Homb. But why?

Why do the current systems neglect to recognise and support women effectively through the monumental physical, emotional and psychological change that is becoming a mother.

In this episode of No Place Like Homb, our co-hosts Larissa and Jess share more about the vison that is Homb and their mission to revolutionise postpartum care.

After her own birth experience, Larissa was left asking if she was alone or if other women were crying out for somewhere they can go to be supported through their postpartum journey.

Through extensive market research we discovered that the problem is extensive, and we collectively need to do more to support new mothers, and through listening to the experience of new mothers the vision for Homb has become clear.

We spend so much time and effort preparing to welcome a new baby and we so often fail to prepare for welcoming a new mum.

This was true for Larissa and in this episode of No Place Like Homb we'll hear more about her personal experience of becoming a mother.

Say hello to No Place Like Homb co-hosts, Larissa and Jessica and join them on their mission to revolutionise the way we care for mothers.
