Send us a text"Congratulations, you're both alive." This shockingly low bar for maternal healthcare success reveals everything wrong with how America treats new mothers. In this eye-opening conversation, Dr. Venice Haynes, Senior Director of Research and Community Engagement at United States of Care, shares the urgent mission behind the groundbreaking 100 Weeks Project - an initiative transforming postpartum care by acknowledging that maternal health needs extend far beyond delivery.Dr. Haynes pulls back the curtain on America's maternal health crisis, sharing both data and personal stories that highlight the dangerous gap in care during the postpartum period. Most new mothers don't see a healthcare provider between delivery and their six-week checkup, despite the fact that over 60% of maternal deaths occur within the first seven days after birth. This negligence reflects a healthcare system that continues to treat new mothers as afterthoughts.The cultural expectation of "toxic independence" compounds this crisis. Mothers are expected to handle everything themselves, creating a dangerous reluctance to seek help even when warning signs appear. Meanwhile, essential postpartum services like lactation consulting, pelvic floor physical therapy, and mental health support remain categorized as luxuries rather than necessities, placing them out of reach for many families.Through the 100 Weeks Project, Dr. Haynes and her team are working to fundamentally reimagine maternal care by 2030. By advocating for expanded Medicaid coverage, better employer policies, improved data collection, and innovative care models, they aim to create a future where maternal health is truly valued - not just for the six weeks after delivery, but for the entire journey through parenthood.What would it look like if we treated mothers like they matter? Listen now to discover how we can transform maternal care from a bare-minimum survival scenario to a truly supportive experience for all.Learn more here: https://100weeks.unitedstatesofcare.org/p/1 Coaching offerKelly Hof: Labor Nurse + Birth CoachBasically, I'm your birth bestie!

Send us a textWhat if your gut instinct and intuition as a provider is the missing piece in truly supporting postpartum mothers?We've been trained to rely on tests, checklists, and data, but what if the most powerful tool we have isn't something that can be measured? In this episode, I share a personal experience that shook me to my core—one that proved how deeply connected emotional wounds are to physical symptoms. We dive into why postpartum care has lost its intuitive roots, how women healers throughout history were dismissed or feared for trusting their inner knowing, and why it's time to bring that back. If you've ever had a moment where you just knew what a mom needed—without a test or protocol telling you so—this episode will validate what you've felt all along. Plus, we discuss how modern biohacking, tracking, and testing have taken us further from the innate wisdom that has guided women's healing for centuries. If you're a postpartum provider, this episode will reignite your confidence in the deep knowing that makes you extraordinary at what you do.Check out this episode on the blog: https://postpartumu.com/podcast/mastering-intuition-as-a-provider-when-to-trust-your-gut-vs-protocol-in-postpartum-care-ep-204/Key Time Stamps: 00:02 – The gut feeling that changed a client's postpartum recovery03:41 – How grief and trauma show up in the body04:52 – The lost art of trusting intuition in women's healthcare06:17 – Why postpartum healing isn't about biohacking—it's about deep connection07:44 – The question every provider must ask: “Am I hesitating because it's wrong or because I wasn't taught it?”09:56 – A personal story of misdiagnosis—and how one doctor trusted her instinct to find the truth12:48 – Why clients need validation beyond lab results15:25 – The Postpartum Nutrition Certification: Bridging science and intuition for better care17:26 – Final thoughts: Why intuition is the missing piece in postpartum healingNEXT STEPS:

Natalie Davis, CEO of United States of Care, joins The Electorette host Jen Taylor-Skinner to examine the critical postpartum care crisis in the United States. Despite being a high-income nation, America's maternal mortality rates highlight significant gaps in postpartum support. Davis discusses The 100 Weeks Project, a groundbreaking initiative designed to transform postpartum care by providing comprehensive, personalized support from conception through the first year postpartum. This initiative addresses the physical, mental, and social needs of mothers, fathers, and partners alike. The conversation shifts to the challenges of healthcare access for families, focusing on insurance disparities that disproportionately affect mothers. Davis and Taylor-Skinner explore cultural and societal barriers that hinder progress and discuss the need for a reimagined healthcare system—one that recognizes diverse family structures and guarantees essential care for all mothers. The discussion also highlights the emotional toll of navigating the healthcare system, particularly for mothers facing early motherhood struggles and NICU experiences. With the Supreme Court case Braidwood v. Becerra threatening to dismantle free preventive healthcare services under the Affordable Care Act, Davis underscores the urgent need for advocacy and systemic change. This episode offers an insightful and urgent call to action, emphasizing the importance of healthcare advocacy and the need for accessible, equitable postpartum care nationwide.

Ep 132 Description:  “Giving birth is like dying away from all your past, and you'll become a new person that is going to have a lot of new skills. When you close, you give yourself the moment to realize that you're a wise woman now that is becoming a mother.” —Alejandra Lozano Rituals and pleasure— two powerful elements that can transform the birth experience. In the second part of our interview with Alejandra Lozano, we dive deeper into the rituals and pleasure that can transform the birth experience.   Alejandra is a dedicated Mexican midwife with over 11 years of experience supporting women through pregnancy, birth, and beyond. Her passion for honoring cultural wisdom and empowering women is evident in her work. Tune in as Alejandra shares insights on rebozo, sobada, postpartum closing rituals, and practical tips to cultivate pleasure throughout the childbearing journey.   Connect with Debra!

Alejandra's journey into midwifery began with the birth of her son, Mariano— born at home, in water, and surrounded by midwives. That transformative experience awakened a calling in her heart to walk this path. Her first mentor, her midwife, guided her initial steps. But Alejandra's thirst for deeper knowledge took her south, where she immersed herself in traditional Mexican midwifery. There, she connected with midwives who taught her ancestral practices such as Sobada (healing massages), Rebozo techniques, herbal medicine, temazcales, and sacred rituals. Each practice, rooted in love and community, shaped the way Alejandra now walks with women. Today, Alejandra combines this ancestral wisdom with her intuition, creating a space of trust, compassion, and connection for the women she serves. She doesn't consider herself a traditional midwife in the strictest sense—having been born in the city—but her spirit is deeply tied to the roots of our traditions. She continues to travel and learn, bridging the gap between modernity and ancestral wisdom, offering her gifts with reverence for the lineage of birth.  In addition, Alejandra is a special friend and our Orgasmic Birth social media Creatrix. She reaches the wisdom of the rebozo in all our doula workshops and is one of our Orgasmic Birth Pracitioners.  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alepartera/
