#106 | The Fourth Trimester: Interview with Author Kimberly Ann Johnson

Wondering how to best manage the fourth trimester?  This week on the show we are speaking with Kimberly Ann Johnson, author of  "The Fourth Trimester" and "Call of the Wild." After experiencing her own “black hole” through her postpartum experience, she studied indigenous cultures around the world to learn how we can do a better job with the postpartum period.  From her experience, she determined there are five universal needs that all women across the globe require postpartum.  Today, she walks us through these five essential needs and helps us understand the best way to set ourselves up to get these needs met for a better, easier and truly restorative postpartum recovery. If you enjoyed this episode of the Down To Birth Show, please subscribe and share with your pregnant and postpartum friends.**********Send us Fan MailCozyearth: Use code DTB for 20% offNeeded <-- this link for 20% off your orderDrinkLMNT <--  this link for FREE 8-day supplyPrimally Pure Skincare: Use code DOWNTOBIRTH for 10% off Postpartum Soothe: Organic herbal padsicles for healing.
