Teeter Talks with Marissa Teeter

That Time I Chatted with Lindsay Taylor

Marissa Teeter Episode 27

In this nourishing episode of Teeter Talks, I sat down with Lindsay Taylor, Registered Holistic Nutritionist, postpartum advocate, and founder of The Food Doula, to talk about food, motherhood, and the quiet leadership that comes from taking care of ourselves. We explored how nourishment shapes our energy, identity, and recovery, especially during pregnancy and postpartum.

Join us as we dive into these topics:

• How Lindsay’s own postpartum journey led her from academic research to holistic nutrition.
• The cultural messaging around food and motherhood that pulls us away from our needs.
• Why postpartum is about rebuilding, not restricting with food as a key support.
• The myth of “bouncing back” and how asking for help is an act of leadership.
• Simple, no-shame food strategies for when you're exhausted and overwhelmed.
• How The Professional Perinatal Nutrition Program helps practitioners support women more fully.
• Lindsay’s powerful reminder that feeding yourself well isn’t a luxury, it’s leadership, and it shapes how we show up in every area of life.


Whether you're navigating new motherhood or supporting someone who is, Lindsay offers a grounded, compassionate voice and a powerful reminder: feeding yourself well is not optional, it’s foundational.
