Knowledge is power. Our aim is to unravel and interpret the latest research and evidence-based practices for pregnancy, postpartum and motherhood. As mums and researchers ourselves, we have experienced first-hand the overwhelming complexity of information, myths and old-wives tales. Even worse, 'advice' is being given to mums without the proper context or knowledge of their individual needs. So tune in to hear us ask experts, researchers and specialists about all things mother care, pregnancy, birth and postpartum.

Meg is a Physio, Mum to 3-month-old Akira, and the face behind Hey Mama Physio, a practice and movement studio dedicated to pre and postnatal Mamas.
She has keen thirst for knowledge, is a nerd for scientific evidence, and has a passion for integrating that information into choices and lifestyle in simple and realistic ways. This is not only how she works clinically as a Physio, but is the basis of how she approached decision making during her own pregnancy, birth and postpartum, and now motherhood.
Meg also has a big passion for helping women approach pregnancy and postpartum holistically and openly, encouraging conversations about all things including mental health, family dynamics, and pelvic floor issues including incontinence, pain and return to sex.
With a passion for women’s health and a dedication to quality dietetic research, Dr Pirotta's intention is to help women take better control of their health and bodies through evidence-based methods. Following the completion of her Masters in Dietetics and while working as a Dietitian, she felt compelled towards the specific area of women’s nutrition. Embarking on a PhD in PCOS, Steph set out to better understand the needs of women with this complex condition through research, and develop a co-designed, evidence-based, multidisciplinary lifestyle program that creates conditions for optimal personal health through nutrition.
