Julia and Kendra Denholm, a licensed midwife, discuss all things sex and intimacy after having a baby. You'll hear open and honest dialogue about changes in the body postpartum, feelings and emotions around returning to a sexual relationship, ways to stay connected with your partner in parenthood and everything in between. Oftentimes this can feel like a taboo topic in motherhood, we don't believe it should be, and hope to change the narrative around how we talk about sex as mothers.
