## Resource

In Part 2 of our heartfelt conversation with Brittany Starobin , co-founder of Haven Postnatal Retreat , we dive deep into the urgent need for better postpartum care in America —and the community that's changing everything. Brittany opens up about her own journey through motherhood and how it inspired her to create a sanctuary where new moms can rest, heal, and be truly cared for. Together, we unpack the realities of maternal mental health , racial disparities in care , and the emotional toll that new mothers often face in silence. From the importance of government-mandated parental leave to the simple act of giving moms permission to care for themselves, this episode reminds us that motherhood shouldn't mean martyrdom —it should mean support, safety, and compassion. Key Takeaways: Why maternal mental health must be part of every postpartum plan The unique challenges women of color face in maternal healthcare How Haven Postnatal Retreat is redefining postpartum recovery Why guilt-free rest is a radical act of self-care for new moms What needs to change in healthcare and culture to truly support mothers Keywords: postpartum care, maternal mental health, Haven Postnatal Retreat, maternal mortality, community support, new mothers, postpartum support, maternal health, healthcare system, maternal wellness
