19. The Importance of Size Inclusion in Birth and Postpartum with Emily Goodstein

Posted on January 27, 2021February 2, 2021 by Irina Gonzalez

LISTEN TO THE FULL EPISODE!

Irina talks with Emily Goodstein, a new mom and the owner of the digital marketing agency Greater Good Strategy. They discussed how having a baby in a pandemic forced her to slow down, her postpartum preeclampsia, and what it is like to live in a larger body and, more importantly, advocate for yourself when society and the medical establishment tells you that your body is wrong. Plus, her very committed breastfeeding story.

Show Notes:

  • Make sure to follow Emily on Instagram for news and cute baby photos.
  • Check out Emily’s company, Greater Good Strategy.
  • Buy CoBoo spray if you are a mom who needs help with lubrication when you pump.
