When we become moms, our whole world changes. From body changes to identity shifts, motherhood can be full of new experiences. Today, we talk with Lo Bosworth for The Ultimate Unbalancing Act, our four-part series with Yahoo.  

She walks us through her pregnancy and postpartum experience, and how she’s handling all of the shifts that come along with becoming a mom. Lo explains her challenging postpartum experience following a c-section that resulted in a retained placenta and how she’s coping with a birth and postpartum experience that wasn’t quite what she planned for. We also delve into just how much motherhood shifts your perspective, and how she’s experiencing that as a first-time mom. Lo is also candid about her experience balancing entrepreneurship with motherhood, and how there might not really be such a thing as balance. 

You can hear more about Lo’s and other moms’ stories on her podcast Tell Me I’m a Good Mom: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/tell-me-im-a-good-mom-with-lo-bosworth-natale/id1882122583
