Welcome back to the New Mom Boss Podcast!

Well, wonder no more!

 

In this episode, I chat with the incredible Lauren Alicia about all things herbal medicine for pregnancy and postpartum.

 

Lauren is a birth/postpartum doula & herbalist in the LA area, and she's here to share her wealth of knowledge on supporting mamas and women through herbs.


Lauren talks about her background and how she got into doula work and holistic medicine. She emphasizes the importance of education when it comes to herbs during pregnancy and postpartum, and lists some of the benefits of these remedies, such as addressing deficiencies, relaxing your cervix, and postpartum healing.

 Some big takeaways are:
