Most Downloaded Episodes Every Postpartum Mom Should Hear

No fluff—just the real, honest conversations about nutrition, hormones, body image, and healing that moms come back to again and again.

DOES BREASTFEEDING GUARANTEE WEIGHT LOSS?

We’ve all heard it—“Just breastfeed and the weight will fall off!” But is that really true? 🤔

In this episode, I unpack what’s actually happening with your body while breastfeeding—and why it’s completely okay if the weight isn’t just melting off. I’ll share what your body truly needs right now to feel strong, nourished, and supported.

ARE YOU REALLY ADDICTED TO SUGAR?

Feel like you have zero willpower when it comes to sweets—especially in postpartum? You’re not alone. 🍫

In this episode, I talk about why sugar cravings can feel so intense (it’s not just about willpower!), what might be going on underneath, and some gentle, doable strategies to help you feel more in control—without guilt or restriction.

SHOULD YOU DITCH THE SCALE?

How’s your relationship with the scale these days? Love it? Hate it?

Avoiding it completely?
In this episode, I get honest about how the number on the scale can affect your mindset—and whether it’s really helping.

I’ll walk you through how to measure progress in ways that feel encouraging, not defeating.

HOW TO BOOST YOUR ENERGY POSTPARTUM

Sure, feeling exhausted might be common as a mom—but that doesn’t mean it’s normal. 😴

In this episode, I talk about what chronic exhaustion might really be telling you. I’ll share things to look for in your day-to-day life, possible root causes, and simple shifts to help you start feeling more like yourself again.

POSTPARTUM WEIGHT LOSS

That six-week checkup is supposed to be a big milestone—but for a lot of moms, it feels more like a quick birth control chat than a full-body check-in.

In this episode, I walk you through what actually matters in your postpartum healing—like how to support your hormones and metabolism—and why the scale doesn’t get to define your progress.

HOW TO FEEL CONFIDENT IN YOUR CHANGING BODY DURING PREGNANCY

If you’ve ever felt anxious about gaining weight during pregnancy or struggled with how your body is changing—you are so not alone.

In this episode, I’m breaking down the myths around weight recommendations, why every mom’s journey looks different, and how to shift the focus from the scale to feeling strong, nourished, and confident in your growing body.

Meet Your Host

Hey, I’m Brooke,

After my son was born prematurely with Down syndrome and needed open-heart surgery, I was overwhelmed—juggling therapy, pumping, and postpartum recovery while completely neglecting myself. I was drained, resentful, and trying to pour from an empty cup.

That breakdown led to my breakthrough. I realized caring for myself wasn’t selfish—it was necessary. By healing my metabolism and hormones through nutrition, I regained my energy, stabilized my mood, reached my healthiest weight, and even donated hundreds of ounces of breastmilk.

I finally felt confident again—in my body, my choices, and motherhood. Now, as a Registered Dietitian and Certified Lactation Counselor, I help other moms do the same through The Postpartum Shift. And I’d be honored to support you, too.
