Honoring the Phases of Womanhood: Herbal Wisdom for Fertility, Pregnancy & Postpartum with Tricia Little

How do you truly support your body through every phase of motherhood—from trying to conceive to postpartum—and what role can herbs and nourishment play along the way?

In this episode of Wildly Well Mamas, I sit down with herbalist Tricia Little to explore holistic support for fertility, pregnancy, birth, and beyond.

In this conversation, we walk through the full motherhood journey—from preconception and each trimester to birth, postpartum, and breastfeeding—exploring how herbs, nutrient-dense foods, and intentional care can support the body, mind, and spirit every step of the way.

Tricia shares her personal healing journey and how it led her to herbalism, ancestral nutrition, and a deeper trust in the body’s wisdom. We talk about preparing for pregnancy through “trimester zero,” supporting hormones and fertility, navigating common pregnancy symptoms naturally, and nourishing the body for birth and postpartum recovery.

You’ll walk away from this episode with both practical tools and a deeper sense of connection—understanding how to support your body with simple, effective herbal and nutritional practices, while also honoring the sacred and transformational nature of motherhood.

This conversation is a beautiful reminder that your body is not something to fix, but something to nourish, trust, and work with—through every phase of womanhood.

🌿 In this episode, we explore:

• Herbal and nutritional support for fertility, pregnancy, and postpartum

• The concept of “trimester zero” and preparing for conception

• Supporting common pregnancy symptoms like nausea, fatigue, and low iron

• Herbs to use—and avoid—during pregnancy and breastfeeding

• Nourishing the body for birth, recovery, and milk production

• Reconnecting with your body, intuition, and the wisdom of plant medicine

About the Podcast

Wildly Well Mamas
Authentic Conversations & Soulful Support
This is a space for mindful mamas committed to living their best lives while raising kids to thrive. The ones setting boundaries, breaking generational patterns, making learning a lifestyle, and raising their kids with intention—even when it feels messy or misunderstood.


I’m Jamie—a mama, wellness coach, and cancer survivor—here to share what I’m learning and have the conversations I wish more moms were having. In each episode, you’ll hear either a journal-style solo from me or a raw, inspiring interview with another mom on the wellness train.


We’ll talk about supporting our bodies through movement, nourishment, rest, and rhythm; regulating our nervous systems, ditching diet culture, living cyclically, raising conscious kids, and coming home to ourselves—over and over again.
No shame. No shoulds. Just stories, insights, and reminders that you’re not doing this alone.


Because when moms feel grounded, inspired, and wildly well—everybody benefits. 🫶
