Sick of hearing the cliche "it's just hormones" or that you'll simply bounce back? Becoming a mother comes with lots of blessings and challenges, but we still don’t talk enough about what it can do to body image, whether you’re adjusting to a new normal or struggling to meet expectations about your body.

Join expert therapists and health professionals from Octave and NAPS for an unfiltered discussion about:

• Understanding the myths about pregnancy and body image
• Discovering tips to build a better relationship with your body
• Identifying if you've developed negative coping strategies and behaviors
• Recognizing how postpartum depression or anxiety can play into body image

This discussion is for women who are pregnant, postpartum, or parenting young ones.
