Postpartum retreats are a hot topic in the news right now.

There are several red flags involved with this that we need to make ourselves aware of right away.

So let's talk about why these postpartum retreats are NOT the solution to the maternal healthcare crisis.


In this episode, we're sharing:

  • The obvious prohibitive cost factor that luxury experiences like this present, that further widens the gap between the privileged wealthy and those who don't have the financial means for such care.
  • The slippery slope into "standardized care" something like this generates and who actually benefits from these "investments" in the long term.
  • What needs to be done instead that will fully support mothers, babies, and families and set them up for the journey of parenthood.

I'm sure this episode is going to bring you a perspective on postpartum retreats that isn't being presented in the mainstream coverage.

Let's have a conversation about the rise of postpartum retreats and how you envision yourself contributing to a paradigm of postpartum care that allows all mothers to thrive. Join us to chat about it in the Facebook group!
