When you hear the words Alzheimer's disease, what do you think of? The truth is, the picture most of us have of the disease is incomplete. Alzheimer's disease doesn't start when someone starts to lose their memory. It actually starts years – sometimes decades – earlier.

What if your gut instinct and intuition as a provider is the missing piece in truly supporting postpartum mothers?
We’ve been trained to rely on tests, checklists, and data, but what if the most powerful tool we have isn’t something that can be measured?
In this episode, I share a personal experience that shook me to my core—one that proved how deeply connected emotional wounds are to physical symptoms. We dive into why postpartum care has lost its intuitive roots, how women healers throughout history were dismissed or feared for trusting their inner knowing, and why it’s time to bring that back.
If you’ve ever had a moment where you just knew what a mom needed—without a test or protocol telling you so—this episode will validate what you’ve felt all along. Plus, we discuss how modern biohacking, tracking, and testing have taken us further from the innate wisdom that has guided women’s healing for centuries. If you're a postpartum provider, this episode will reignite your confidence in the deep knowing that makes you extraordinary at what you do.
