Did you know that after birth, your placenta leaves behind a wound the size of a large dinner plate?
In this nourishing and insightful episode, Gianna sits down with postpartum specialist Samantha Franceschini to explore what most new moms aren’t told about recovery: the power of food, rest, and gentle support. Together, they unpack the physiological changes that occur after childbirth, how under-eating can hinder healing, and why warm, nutrient-dense meals are essential for both physical and mental wellness.
Whether you’re expecting, recovering, or supporting a postpartum mom, this conversation will change the way you view the fourth trimester.
