In this episode of That's Total Mom Sense, host Kanika Chadda Gupta sits down with Alex Spitz, Founder and CEO of New Mom School, to explore what happens when the village disappears and how she is rebuilding it.

After experiencing the isolation of early motherhood herself, Alex set out to create a solution. Today, she is actively rebuilding the village for modern mothers through New Mom School, a postpartum education and support platform with 22 locations across the United States. Grounded in expert-led programming and real community, New Mom School equips parents with the education, confidence, and connection they need during the fourth trimester.

Together, Kanika and Alex discuss the postpartum care gap, maternal mental health, and why proactive support, not survival mode, should be the standard. This episode is especially relevant for pregnant women and parents with babies under one year old, and is required listening for anyone who wants to support the mothers in their lives.
