Welcome to Nourishing Foundations, a deeply immersive experience designed to empower mothers, birth workers, and healthcare professionals with the knowledge and skills to support postpartum healing through intentional, plant-based nourishment.

This course isn’t just about what to eat postpartum—it’s about why these foods matter. We dive deep into the physiological, emotional, and spiritual aspects of postpartum recovery, ensuring that you walk away not just with meal plans and recipes, but with a profound understanding of the healing power of food.

Our approach is evidence-based, rooted in ancestral wisdom, and designed to fit seamlessly into modern life. Whether you’re preparing for your own postpartum journey, supporting clients, or expanding your expertise in postpartum nutrition, Nourishing Foundations provides a holistic, practical, and deeply nourishing education.

 

The Course Structure: A Three-Part Journey into Postpartum Nourishment

 

Nourishing Foundations is divided into three in-depth courses, each designed to build upon the last, offering a comprehensive education in postpartum nutrition, healing foods, and holistic care.

Course 1: Foundations of Postpartum Nourishment

This module is the heart of the program, laying the groundwork for understanding postpartum recovery through nutrition. We explore:

Why postpartum nutrition is different from general nutrition and how your body’s needs shift after birth

✔ The fourth trimester—what happens physiologically, emotionally, and hormonally in the weeks after birth

✔ The science behind postpartum depletion and how food can support healing, energy, and hormone balance

✔ The first 40 days postpartum—how different cultures nourish new mothers and what we can learn from these traditions

✔ Understanding warming foods, their role in postpartum healing, and how to integrate them into a plant-based diet

Key postpartum nutrients—what gets depleted and how to replenish through whole foods

✔ How to create nutrient-dense, healing meals without stress

Course 2: Practical Nourishment – Cooking, Recipes, and Meal Preparation

This hands-on module teaches you how to bring postpartum nourishment into real life—from cooking techniques to meal planning and herbal support. We cover:

Plant-based bone-free broths and why they’re essential for deep postpartum healing

Mineral-rich stews, teas, and warm drinks for replenishing energy and rebuilding strength

Lactation-supportive foods and herbs—understanding galactagogues and how to naturally support milk supply

Delegating meal tasks—how partners, friends, and family can help create a supportive food environment

Ingredient breakdowns and food synergy—understanding how different foods work together to optimize healing

Adaptogenic herbs and functional foods for stress relief, hormonal balance, and overall wellness

Course 3: Ancestral & Global Postpartum Nourishment + Community Support

This module connects ancestral wisdom, cultural traditions, and community-based postpartum support, blending spiritual, emotional, and nutritional healing. We explore:

Global postpartum food traditions—how different cultures use food and herbs to support new mothers

Plant-based adaptations of traditional postpartum meals from around the world

Herbal and natural remedies for common postpartum concerns, from digestion to mood balance

The role of spiritual and emotional nourishment—how postpartum care extends beyond food
