Ep 012 - Balancing Motherhood and Self-Care: The Importance of Nutrition in the Postpartum Period with Megan Lyons

Hey there! It's Amanda here, and I am thrilled to have you back for another episode of the Redefining Motherhood podcast. Today's conversation is one that every mother, new or experienced, can relate to. We're peeling back the layers of the postpartum experience, and I've got the incredible Megan Lyons, a nutritionist and wellness guru, right here with me.

You know, as moms, we've all been there. Those early days of motherhood can feel like a whirlwind – from sleepless nights to endless baby care, it's easy to forget to take care of ourselves. Megan and I talk about the unique challenges that women face in the postpartum period and about how nutrition can be a game-changer for your overall well-being during this transformative phase.

Megan is going to share some practical strategies that you can weave into your busy schedule, like meal prepping and making room for nutrient-dense foods. And guess what? We're not just talking about physical health here. Megan touches on those common mindset hurdles that new moms often encounter – feelings of being overwhelmed and maybe not quite deserving of self-care.

But let me tell you, Megan's insights are empowering. She reminds us all to ask for help, to carve out those moments that make us feel like ourselves, and to put our health front and center during this incredible, albeit chaotic, time of life.

So, grab your favorite beverage, cozy up, and join us for this heartwarming and informative episode that's all about redefining motherhood in the postpartum period.
