A recent clinical review revealed what so many mothers already feel: the postpartum period is one of the most clinically neglected times in a woman’s life.
It showed how most postpartum care protocols still overlook essential aspects, from mental health to nutrition, hormonal balance, and recovery support.
The review calls for early follow-up, individualized care, and more consistent global standards.
But beyond the medical gaps, there’s also a human one.
Many mothers sense that something isn’t right, they feel unseen, unheard, and unsure if what they’re experiencing is “normal.”
That silence is exactly why awareness matters.

As a postpartum doula and chef, my work focuses on closing that gap,
helping mothers be seen, nourished, and cared for in the season that often gets overlooked.

As this year comes to a close, I just want to say thank you.

To every family who trusted me during one of the most vulnerable seasons of life—thank you for welcoming me into your homes, your nights, your stories, and your sacred postpartum space. Supporting you and your babies has been an honor I don’t take lightly.

To those who referred me, shared my name, and spoke about my work when I wasn’t in the room—thank you. Because of you, I was fully booked by June for the first time this year, and I’m so deeply grateful.

I’m also thankful for the partnerships that came alongside me this year and opened doors I didn’t expect, allowing me to grow in new ways, including streams of passive income.

Thank you for being part of this year.

This past weekend my baby brother (we’re 16 years apart!) came to visit. He truly is one of the best human beings. When I look at this picture, I realized…I don’t remember the last time I had a hug like this. I needed it more than I even knew.

And it made me think—so many people are walking around needing words and hugs more than anything.

I hope that when I leave a mama’s home, she feels this kind of hug.
A hug that says:

I see you.
I got you.
You’re going to be okay. 🫂

Postpartum doesn’t wrap up at six weeks.
Each baby brings a new rhythm, new responsibilities, and a new version of you to figure out.

My support isn’t about adding pressure or telling you how to do things.
It’s about helping you breathe again, eat something nourishing, rest without guilt, and feel seen in the middle of everything you’re carrying.

You don’t need more advice — you need care that actually supports you while you care for everyone else.

That’s the heart of what I do.

New moms hear “enjoy every moment” so often that it starts to feel like a rule.
And when they can’t, they feel guilty, like they’re doing something wrong.
But the truth is simple: Not every moment is enjoyable.
Not every moment is meaningful.
And that’s normal.
You can love your baby and still feel tired, frustrated, touched out or overwhelmed.
You don’t need to pretend.
You don’t need to smile through it.
Validation matters because it gives moms space to be honest.
And honesty makes postpartum a lot lighter than pressure ever will.
Save this post to remind yourself, or a new mom you love, that she doesn’t owe anyone a perfect experience.

Last month we spent a slow Saturday at .ok garden lovingly created by a close friend. Surrounded by blooms, sunshine, and some incredible women—plus my boys—we gathered flowers and turned them into small bouquets for our neighbors.

It was such a simple act, but it reminded me of something important:
how nurturing it feels to create with your hands,
how meaningful it is to give without expecting anything back,
and how healing it can be to pause and notice beauty in an ordinary day.

Those are the same values I bring into my work—whether it’s preparing meals, supporting new moms, or showing up in small ways that make a home feel cared for.
Care always starts in the quiet, simple moments.

A highlight of my career happened today — sharing with the next generation what it means to be a postpartum doula. They had such great questions!
Grateful to the teachers for the opportunity to plant seeds of compassion, care, and support for moms and dads.

If you’re like me, you know there’s nothing more comforting than a home-cooked, nourishing meal.
Okay, maybe there is.
A home-cooked, nourishing meal that you didn’t have to cook. 🙃

Because in the postpartum season, moms juggle everything. Healing, feeding, sleepless nights, figuring out life all over again… and sometimes, the hardest thing is remembering to care for yourself.

That’s where my work as a postpartum doula and chef comes in.
I don’t just cook, I make sure you’re resting, recovering, and being truly cared for. I see you when it feels like no one else does. I notice the small things, the quiet struggles, and the love you pour out even when you’re exhausted.

Every meal is made to fuel your body, comfort your mind, and remind you that:
You are seen.
You are known.
You are loved.
You matter.

Because postpartum isn’t just about getting through the day, it’s about being held, nourished, and reminded that you’re not invisible in this story.

If you’re preparing for postpartum or already in it, let’s make this season gentler. I offer free consultations — link in bio.

Imagine this:
you’ve just had your baby, your body is still finding its rhythm, and the days blend together between feedings, diapers, and trying to remember if you’ve eaten anything warm today.

Now picture this instead:
a meal that’s already made. Warm, fragrant, and full of flavor. Something that doesn’t just fill you up, but brings you a moment of calm in the middle of the chaos.

That’s what postpartum food could be doing for you.
It’s not just about nutrition, it’s about feeling seen, cared for, and nourished in one of the most tender seasons of your life.

When I cook for moms, I think about more than the ingredients.
I think about comfort, recovery, and what it feels like to be held through food, the kind that makes you feel human again.

✨ If you’re preparing for postpartum (or already in it), I offer free consultations. It’s a space to explore what you need, what you hope for, and how we can make this season gentler together.

🌧️ We had to pack up early because of the rain, but I still want to give a huge shoutout to the amazing creators of this event — they worked so hard to bring it all together! And to all the incredible small businesses out there (like mine!) — you all rock. 💪🏽✨

I do these events for many reasons — yes, to support and connect with more moms — but also:
💛 To share my story of overcoming postpartum depression
💛 To honor my cousin Priscilla and the beautiful person she was
💛 To connect with other moms who love being both mama and boss
💛 To share the food I love cooking

Even though it was just an hour, I got to do all of that today. 🩷 Every vendor I met showed so much kindness and teamwork — I was able to pack up because of the people next to me. Community like that means everything!
