KRISTA MALTAIS - I AM ONE Passionate Parenting Advocate & Postpartum Doula Trainer
Manage episode 386600994 series 3447173
On today’s episode, we’re sitting down with Krista Maltais, an Advanced Postpartum Doula (AdvPCD) and Certified Postpartum Doula Trainer (PDT) through DONA International and an Advanced Lactation Consultant (ALC) through the Academy of Lactation Policy and Practice. Oh, and she just published a new book and volunteers at PSI as a Climb Leader - just to name a few things. We’ll hear about how even perinatal professionals like Krista can experience postpartum anxiety, depression, and absolute depletion after becoming a parent. In fact, Krista’s experience fueled her desire to create what she didn’t have for new families in her community. So, without any further ado, please - get comfortable, make sure those earbuds are properly adjusted, and enjoy this episode with our friend, Krista.
