KALLISTA ANDERSON- Preparing to be a New Mom

Send us Fan MailToday I speak with Kalista Anderson, a Registered Nurse, Certified Lactation Counselor, and mom of three. Kallista helps pregnant mamas get ready for their baby by preparing their self, space, and significant other. She does so through her podcast, The New Mom Boss Podcast, as well as coaching, and online course New Mom Prep School. Her dedication to helping first-time moms was born when she had her first 2 kids 13 months apart -- experiencing the new mom phase back to back. It is her mission to make preparing to be a new mom simple and thorough so that women can enter motherhood with confidence and joy so that they can build a strong bond with their baby. We talk about:-having a section Tim experience the first time around-experiencing postpartum depression-sleep training-sleep for mental health-getting your body back postpartum-seasonal affect disorder-helping moms through podcast and coaching-collect and select-embracing the virtual communityTime Stamps1:00 introduction4:45 expectations versus reality7:20 having babies back to back8:55 changes with the third pregnancy 13:30 importance of sleep 15:18 urgency to return to normal20:30 podcast and programming25:08 5th trimester28:15 rapid fire questionsCONNECT WITH CARRIEIG: https://www.instagram.com/carriepagliano/Website: https://carriepagliano.comCONNECT WITH KALISTAIG: https://www.instagram.com/newmomboss/Website: www.newmomboss.comThe Active Mom Podcast is A Real Moms' Guide to pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause & beyond for active moms & the professionals who help them in their journey.  This show has been a long time in the making!   You can expect conversation with moms and professionals from all aspects of the industry.   If you're like me, you don't have a lot of free time (heck, you're probably listening at 1.5x speed), so theses interviews will be quick hits to get your the pertinent information FAST!  If you love what you hear, share the podcast with a friend and leave us a 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ rating and review.
