Postpartum Nutrition
Hi, I’m Maya Dorsey. I’m a mother, a Public Health Consultant, and the founder of Restore Her Postpartum, which aims to empower new mamas to prioritize taking their time to recover, to eat nourishing foods, and to sleep when they can, so that they can thrive postpartum. Right now I’m in the process of creating a series of postpartum nutrition recovery kits specifically designed to help moms in their transition from the hospital, back home by providing nutrient rich meals (designed with postpartum experts) that will help jumpstart healing after their baby is born. I was born and raised in Los Angeles, but have been living in Paris, France, for the past ten years, currently with my Franco-American family. I’ve always been interested in health and wellness, and once I found I was pregnant I became fascinated with everything related to motherhood, from the amazing changes the female body goes through during pregnancy, to positive birth experiences, down to how moms are cared for (or the lack thereof) after giving birth. After having my son, I had a really difficult time recovering and I found a lot of comfort and healing through food which sparked the idea of creating a business focused on postpartum recovery through food.
