Does our commercialized view of baby registries prevent mothers from receiving the gifts and support they truly need?
How do we shift our focus and spending towards supporting parents and caregivers during the postpartum period, instead of just the baby's materialistic needs?
How can we change the perception of what is truly necessary for a new mother-baby dyad?
We’ll answer all of these questions and more in this juicy episode.
Today I’m chatting with Kaitlin McGreyes, the Founder of BeHerVillage, a gift registry platform that helps parents receive gifts of support.
Kaitlin is deeply passionate about creating access to the care mothers and parents truly need in birth and postpartum. She is on a mission to make motherhood better and create a culture that celebrates parents and their journey, not just welcoming their new baby.
In this conversation we dive into:
- The real needs of postpartum women and families
- How the generosity of family and friends has been hijacked by a capitalist culture and commercial greed leaving mothers without what they truly want and need for a well-nourished postpartum
- Our lack of the primordial village, and what the new-age village looks like and requires to create for yourself
- The stigma for some mothers around asking for help and support in our hyper-individualistic society
- Shifting from this overemphasis of supporting the baby’s product needs, to supporting the longevity of your entire postpartum transition
Plus Kaitlin shares more about the BeHerVillage Platform including what it is, how it works, and how it’s helping mothers and families all around the globe ask for and receive what they truly need in birth and postpartum.
This could truly be a tool that helps you plan and prepare for your most well-nourished postpartum.
