Wine About Birth Podcast

Today we have a special interview with Terra LaRock. She is a child, family, and school psychologist; motherhood blogger; and mother of two. She often used mindfulness as a therapeutic tool but didn’t adopt the daily practice until she experienced postpartum depression/OCD. Terra has made it her life mission to advocate for maternal mental health and founded Mindful Mamas to ensure that mothers around the world could access the benefits of mindfulness and self-care at the touch of a button. Enjoy and Cheers!
