Welcome to the Best of Birthful. Creator and host Adriana Lozada curated and edited each selection in this playlist of the most popular episodes. It's a tailored introduction to the expansive catalog she amassed over the first five years of Birthful's 300+ shows.
Somatic practitioner and author Kimberly Johnson shares the lessons she learned while writing about “the fourth trimester” and what it takes to fully recover—physically and mentally—after giving birth, including paying attention to what you eat, who supports you, and more.
Here's the original episode in full.
