How you Develop Depression, Anxiety, and Autoimmune Disease in Postpartum: Podcast EP8

We are going to get into quite a hot topic around how the postpartum body actually gets depression, anxiety, and autoimmune diseases.

While all bodies and backgrounds and situations are different, these different things all create a starting point for your health and postpartum.

When we are able to understand the how, and the why of why these things occur in so many women in the years after having a baby, that information can be used to prevent it from occurring, and even completely reverse the damage of not knowing how to heal our body or how it functions during this transition.

So buckle up and get ready for an eye-opening episode all about nutrients, hormones, and how these things affect your body differently in pregnancy and postpartum.
