This episode features a conversation between Jacqueline, and guest Jess Hull, a former Facebook and Google executive who founded Mother Me, an app, online course, and support framework for successful women navigating postpartum. The core of the episode delves into the Mother Me Method, developed by Jess, based on the science of matrescence and incorporating global perspectives on postpartum support. Jacqueline and Jess emphasize the societal need to support mothers' well-being as substantially as the care provided to newborns, interspersing personal experiences with scientific research to underscore the pivotal role maternal health plays in both a mother and child's life. This episode also explores how the transition to parenthood affects relationships and how understanding and respecting each other's experiences can fortify marital bonds in challenging times.
