Healing Begins After Birth
For so many women, the hardest part isn’t giving birth—it’s what comes after.
Amy Spofford knows this firsthand.
Her journey isn’t just about nutrition or new motherhood, it’s about giving voice to the silent struggle so many moms face in the fourth trimester.
And her mission is clear: no mom should have to heal alone.
From Fertility Frustration to Fierce Advocacy
Before she became a guide for postpartum wellness, Amy was navigating her own fertility challenges with little help from traditional medicine.
Doctors were dismissive, quick with prescriptions but slow to listen.
So she did what so many determined women do: she started researching on her own.
What she discovered changed everything.
By shifting her diet and lifestyle, Amy got pregnant naturally and something sparked inside her.
The experience led her to holistic nutrition school, and eventually to coaching others.
At first, it was sugar detoxes.
But after the birth of her third child in 2021, her purpose became clear: she would support women not just through pregnancy, but through the emotional, hormonal, and physical healing that follows.
The Truth About Postpartum Nobody Talks About
Amy saw the reality most moms live with: postpartum depression, physical depletion, lack of support, and a cultural silence around maternal mental health.
And she knew the narrative had to change.
So she created Eat What Feels Good, an online hub where pregnant and new moms can learn to care for their bodies, their minds, and their emotions after giving birth
. Her education isn’t sugar-coated or one-size-fits-all—it’s real, nuanced, and based on her belief that women deserve better tools and better conversations around healing.
One of her first clients? Her own cousin, who was struggling through IVF.
Amy coached her through dietary changes and not only did she conceive on her first round of treatment, she also used Amy’s postpartum course to navigate recovery with strength and self-trust.
It’s stories like this that fuel Amy’s work, even when the visibility isn’t always there.
Even when the algorithm doesn’t reward her. Even when she’s posting between speech therapy shifts and raising three kids.
She keeps going because the message matters.
A Postpartum Advocate With a Warrior’s Heart
Amy’s strength runs deeper than content strategy.
In 2024, she underwent a double mastectomy with reconstruction after discovering a precancerous lesion and a family history of breast cancer.
Recovery left her physically depleted, but not broken.
She bought a walking pad.
She started moving again.
She stayed connected to her purpose, even in exhaustion.
She’s not just talking about healing, she’s living it.
And though she still works full-time, her dreams are big: to finish her postpartum guidebook, to write for parenting magazines, to reach more moms in need of real talk and real tools.
She’s not claiming overnight success—she’s claiming her lane, one step at a time.
We Rise When We Heal Out Loud
At Reignelle, we believe that power is born not in perfection, but in persistence.
Amy’s story reminds us that success doesn’t always look like followers or flashy launches, it looks like showing up.
Sharing the truth. Writing your book at 10 p.m. after your kids are asleep.
She’s building something honest and necessary. And we see her.
