What does it really take to be a postpartum professional who delivers results? 

In this powerful behind the scenes episode, Maranda sits down with 2 CPPNS, Certified Postpartum Nutrition Specialists; Brooke Harmer and McKayla Broadhurst to reveal how the Postpartum Nutrition Certification radically transformed their careers. They get candid about the critical gaps in traditional postpartum care, sharing how this program gave them the tools to not only serve their clients more effectively but also to heal themselves. If you are a birth worker, healthcare provider, or postpartum advocate who knows there's a better way to support mothers, this is the story you need to hear. This isn't just about nutrition; it's about leading a new standard of care.
