We have been working behind the scenes on some personal developments but also working on a couple of professional developments. To commemorate these life events, we’ve invited first-time mom, CEO and Founder of HEALING MAMA™ Co. to talk to us about labour, delivery and postpartum care. This episode is bitter sweet for many personal reasons related to my fertility story but also because Healing Mama Co will only be in business for 24 more short hours AND we have a very limited time offer for all of you mamas and partners out there so hear me out! Today’s CEO recognized a lack of care and support for childbirth and postpartum which led her to find ways to raise the standard of care that pregnant mamas and partners receive! She has backpacked through 58 countries and her infant accompanied her in 7 countries which paved the path to revolutionizing the childbirth industry. We do not have a lot of time to make this announcement as the clock is ticking but Healing Mama Co is offering 50% off their entire website for 24 hours from the launch of this episode before they officially close their doors to welcome new opportunities. Tune in to this episode right now, run over over to healingmamaco.com and purchase the best bag for you and/or your birthing partner. Type in promo code CLOSING50 at checkout on their website and off we go. I don’t want to waste anymore time so let’s jump into the most important parts of this episode - Welcome, Rhowena Adolfo Patel!
