America leads the developed world in maternal mortality—and 80% of those deaths are preventable. In this eye-opening episode, Dr. Natalie Forsell unpacks the crisis in postpartum care: from sad stats and global comparisons to the painful reality that less than 3% of women get pelvic floor PT after birth. She shares how other countries like France, Belgium, and China actually prioritize mothers’ healing, and why the American system leaves moms slipping through the cracks. If you've ever walked out of a 6-week checkup with more questions than answers, this episode is for you. Learn how real healing starts beyond the stirrups—and how Natalie’s virtual Postpartum Recovery Program fills the gap modern moms desperately need.
