Lo Bosworth Natale spent years studying what women's bodies actually need as the the founder and CEO of Love Wellness, a women’s health brand sold at Target, Ulta, Walmart, and CVS. Then she got pregnant and realized she didn’t know anything about this next part.

Tell Me I’m a Good Mom is not a parenting podcast. It’s what happens when the woman who built the wellness brand becomes the case study, and she’s figuring it out in public, one episode at a time. Identity shifts, medical honesty, postpartum moments that don’t make the grid, and the conversations women are having in private but not out loud.

New episodes every Wednesday. Come back weekly, it’s still unfolding.

Tell Me I’m a Good Mom is part of the Dear Media podcast network.

Introducing: Tell Me I'm A Good Mom w/ Lo Bosworth

Pregnancy and motherhood come with pressure, opinions, and plenty of advice, but very few honest conversations about how it actually feels to be a mom. “Tell Me I’m a Good Mom” speaks to the pressure to get it right and the fear of being judged when we don’t. Through her own transition into motherhood, Lo Bosworth Natale explores the identity shift, expectations, emotional plot twists, and educational hacks that make the journey lighter, all while navigating a culture that performs, posts, and rates motherhood online. This is not about perfect parenting. It is about becoming a mother, for real.

My Birth Story: What Nobody Prepared Me For

I had a plan. Birth had other ideas.

I'm starting this podcast the only way that felt right — with the story that started everything. In this episode, I'm sharing the birth plan I made, the vaginal birth I hoped for, and the emergency C-section I didn't see coming. This is my birth trauma, my recovery, and the moment I realized motherhood was never going to go the way I expected.

If your birth story didn't go according to plan, this one's for you.

I Was on Laguna Beach at 17. Being Pregnant Online Hits Different.

I've been sharing my life publicly since I was 17 — first on Laguna Beach, then The Hills, then a decade of building Love Wellness by being honest about my body and my health. So when I got pregnant, keeping it private was never really the question. And I get into my TV origin story on today's episode.. But being pregnant online is different. This episode is part manifesto, part cultural riff on why the instinct to share a moment this big has always existed — long before the internet gave it a new address. I get into my own fertility journey, the IVF and endometriosis surgery that I think actually got me here, and the women online whose stories gave me language for things I didn't know how to name yet. And the question every modern parent is quietly wrestling with: what's actually okay to share about your kid? No agenda. No lectures. Just honest conversation.

I'm Trapped in my Postpartum Body | Postpartum Recovery, Hormones, & Body Image

I'm 8 weeks postpartum and I'm not okay. Not in a crisis — but not in the version of this that gets posted online either. I'm in the messy, unglamorous, nobody-talks-about-this middle of it. And I wanted to put it on record, in real time, because I genuinely could not find content that showed me what this actually looks like when you're living it.

I have a retained placenta. A large ovarian cyst. Bleeding that won't stop. Hormones so destabilizing they feel, I'm not exaggerating, like a psychedelic experience. And on top of all of that, a body I don't recognize, clothes that don't fit, and a version of myself I'm still trying to locate somewhere underneath all of it.

The six-week appointment comes and goes and the world acts like that's the end of the story. It is not the end of the story. For a lot of us it's barely the beginning of understanding what just happened to our bodies and who we are now inside them.

I made this episode because I was desperate for it and it didn't exist. Nobody shows you this part. The books don't cover it. The instagram posts skip it. The doctors send you home with almost nothing. I have nearly 900,000 followers and when I asked for postpartum expert recommendations I got four responses. Four.

Here's what I want you to know: the discomfort is not a sign that something is wrong with you. It is a side effect of what your body just did. The hormonal chaos, the physical recovery, the identity shift, the grief, the joy, the confusion of feeling all of it at once. This is postpartum. Very few women get to skip it. And because almost nobody talks about it honestly, so many of us move through it thinking we're alone or behind or broken. We are not.

I'm sharing this because I think new moms deserve more than a six-week checkup and a pamphlet. You deserve to see what this actually looks like in real time, so that when you're in it, you feel less alone and more supported. I know I'm going to be okay. I really do. But right now I'm in it, and I want you to know that it is okay to be deeply uncomfortable. You are allowed to struggle. You are allowed to not have it together. That is not failure. That is postpartum.

You are a good mom.
