Today we close out our four-part series dedicated to maternal mental health. Allison is joined by two friends, Ellen Jones and Holly Kennedy, who share Allison’s passion for helping new moms and have created a maternal coaching business called Mother Tree Wellness. They share the challenges they faced in their own personal postpartum journeys and offer concrete advice for moms navigating this major life transition.

Ellen and Holly share simple strategies moms can use to orient themselves to motherhood, find their sense of self again after giving birth and use the anchor points in their routines and relationships to find the peace and joy in this new phase of their life. They clarify what exactly maternal coaching is, who can benefit from this service and what other resources are available to new moms. They also provide specific guidance on how partners and those in the new mom’s support network can lend support.
