Join us in the resistance against "Bounce Back Culture" with Amy Quinn, LCSW, as she leads us through a grounding mindfulness exercise and a raw conversation about the body image challenges many women face during pregnancy and postpartum.
Amy will help you better understand how you can connect with your true "soul self" and embrace the many changes that your body will experience during this time, and really, through your entire lifespan.
You can learn more about Amy's private practice (in California) and her womens wellness retreats (think tropical destinations and swimming with wild dolphins!) at her website www.amyquinn.com. You can also email her directly at amyquinnlcsw@gmail.com or find her on instagram @amyquinnlcsw
