Have you ever felt this little voice inside telling you to stop? That’s exactly what happened to Riley Kinworthy, my next guest on The Real New Mom Stories series!

Riley is the Founder & CEO of Rebel Boss, a fitnesspreneur business accelerator that helps women to build high-impact, high-revenue businesses. She is also a mom to her 18-month old son, Leo.

Riley began her pregnancy like most moms, but looking back on her experience, there were several things she wishes had been different! From her practitioner selection to the way she handled hurtful comments after choosing a homebirth, Riley believes there were lots of opportunities to better prepare herself for delivery and the fourth trimester.

In today’s conversation with Gretchen, she shares with us how she prepared for her pregnancies with her “let’s wing it” approach. We talk more about how she believes this affected her delivery and get honest about the things that might have been different had she been more prepared.

We also talk about gearing up to go back to work postpartum. Gretchen had to find her own version of balance in this season and has some valuable insight for moms who are looking to return to the workforce.

In this episode, I have a wonderful conversation about Hypnobirthing with Estee Nadav, a HypnoBirthing educator, and certified postpartum doula. She defines what hypnobirthing is, and what it is not, and explains 6 different tools/techniques that can be used in the process. She really illustrates the perfect picture for what it is, that honestly blew all stereotypes out of the water! Obviously, we have a vision of what we want birth to look like. But Estee's dream is that women will be able to accept whatever may come with calmness and joy.Show Notes Link: https://www.newmomboss.com/54

In this episode, Jeannie shares with us more about the history of Cafe Baby, and how they encourage new moms to introduce solids to their little ones.

I had the pleasure of interviewing Jin Ong, an Osteopath and Psychosomatic Therapist living in Wanaka, New Zealand. In our conversation, Jin explains all about a Lotus Birth, how she incorporates Herbs in her practice, and more about her homebirth story and experience becoming a new mom. Her story is inspiring and I’m so glad we were able to continue the important conversation of how moms can better prepare themselves physically and emotionally for birth, and providing a healthier environment for their babies!Show Notes Link: https://www.newmomboss.com/52
