Hi, I’m Livia
Postpartum Nutritionist and Traditional Postpartum Carer.
I’m a postpartum nutritionist and traditional care practitioner, and I help new mums rebuild their energy, confidence, and core strength after birth so they can feel like themselves again – but even stronger.
I created The Strong After Birth Method™ to bring back the powerful traditional practices that modern motherhood has lost – like belly binding, therapeutic nourishment, and sacred rest rituals – to support your body’s deep physical healing after birth.
And because I’ve seen so many mothers feel relentlessly tired, foggy, and anxious about how they’ll cope with returning to work or handling family life, I also developed the Postpartum Energy Reclaim Method™. This approach combines targeted nutrition, mineral replenishment, and nervous system support to restore your energy, confidence, and emotional steadiness so you can thrive in this new chapter.
I was inspired to do this work after seeing the women in my own family cared for in the first 40 days after birth with warmth, belly binding, and nourishing meals after birth – root in Traditional Chinese Medicine and ancient wisdom practices that left them feeling strong, calm, and grounded. Later, I watched my friends struggle deeply in postpartum – waking up every day feeling exhausted, disconnected from their bodies, and wondering if they’d ever feel like themselves again.
I realised how much mothers are left to navigate alone in a world that celebrates bouncing back but doesn’t teach us how to truly heal and replenish.
My mission is to change that.
Through my programmes, I help you feel deeply nourished, held, and supported as you recover – so you can step into motherhood with confidence, feeling grounded in your body, clear in your mind, and strong in your spirit.
Because you deserve to thrive after birth – not just survive.
Growing up, I watched my grandmother care for the women in our family after birth – with warm, nourishing meals, gentle belly binding, and deep, uninterrupted rest. These simple yet powerful traditions left them feeling strong, supported, and grounded as they stepped into motherhood.
But today, so much of this ancient wisdom is fading. Each generation drifts further from these practices as modern life and western medicine overlook the importance of traditional postpartum mother-centred care.
My mission is to keep these traditions alive.
To honour what our grandmothers knew, and ensure this knowledge is passed down – so future generations of mothers can feel deeply nourished, held, and strong in their bodies and spirits after birth.
Because postpartum care isn’t a luxury. It’s how we rise as mothers, whole and supported.
What I Stand For
I believe that postpartum isn’t just about “bouncing back.”
It’s about rebuilding your energy, confidence, and connection to your body in a way that honours your journey and sets the foundation for your health, motherhood, and career for years to come.
I stand for:
🌿 Care that honours your body’s wisdom
🌿 Nourishment that goes beyond calories to deeply replenish
🌿 Traditions that hold and strengthen you
🌿 Practical support that fits your modern life
🌿 And a future where mothers are no longer left to recover alone
Because when mothers are well nourished and well cared for, families, communities, and generations thrive.
