077: In Part 2 of this conversation with Lizzy Gibbs—after Episode 76—we continue into the questions and conversations so many women are quietly carrying around feeding, the body, and what changes after birth. We move through the practical and the deeply personal, from navigating breastfeeding and bottles to partner involvement, body-based support, and the more tender, taboo edges of breasts, sexuality, and arousal in motherhood. We also touch on Vaginal Alchemy and breast massage, and open up important conversations around allergies, cancer, and breast surgery in a way that feels honest, nuanced, and deeply human.
Tune in on Apple or Spotify, or catch the video on YouTube.
