91: Why you May Be Suffering From Postpartum Depletion Without Even Knowing It with Surf Retreat Owner Amy Kotch

The Soul Mammas Podcast

I thought total exhaustion in new motherhood was a normal occurrence. What I didn't realize was that feeling low energy through the day, everyday, & then not being able to sleep was actually due to postpartum depletion. This is a phenomenon I hadn't heard of until I interviewed today's guest mama Amy Kotch. Today this charging surfer & surf retreat owner, is going to share about her experience with postnatal depletion, her interest in orthomolecular nutrition, gentle parenting & living abroad with a child.

Today we share about:

• Raising a child abroad
• How Amy's views on surfing have changed now that she is a mama
• Living on a resort island 9 months out of the year with a little one
• Running a surf retreat in the tropics with her husband
• Gentle parenting and how Amy approaches motherhood
• Postpartum depletion-what it is, the significance, and when Amy realized she was suffering from it
• Why feeling exhausted all day everyday may be from postpartum depletion
• It takes more energy out of the body to produce milk than to beat our own hearts
• Why women's bodies undergo stress after having a child
• How Amy uses vitamins to remedy depletion
• How Amy's life has changed since studying about vitamins and how they can replenish the body
• Advice for mamas struggling with extreme fatigue, sleeplessness, stress, anxiety or illness
