Let's Get Real

In this podcast, I am joined by Bridgette Wolleat (who was on this podcast once before, talking about herbs for pregnancy and postpartum) and we are talking about how to have an awesome postpartum! In this podcast we dive into all the areas to plan for and set yourself up (or your partner/friend/family member) for a supportive postpartum environment. We also share about the coaching services we offer remotely to support your in the planning phases of this time, as well as services we have for Austin, TX locals to receive meals and herbs from us.

I share about what things like “the economy” and “the environment” are and how I feel we can make a difference in the world in whatever areas, in whatever ways we desire.

One of the most common questions we have received since announcing our pregnancy is, "are you going to vaccinate your child?" It seems that this can sometimes be a very sensitive topic that strikes a deep cord within people. We love exploring important, sensitive topics in loving, all-inclusive ways. In this video, join Brittany as she interviews Chantel Quick about the topic of vaccinations. Chantel is a beautiful, caring human, a blogger, an avid researcher of vaccine information for over a decade, a natural, loving mama, and a good friend of ours. We hope you find value in the information she shares in this video, and above all, hope that you feel empowered to make the choices that feel best for you and your child/children around vaccinations.
