the WOMAN MADE WELL Podcast

 

Navigate the challenges of parenting with honest conversations, empowering stories, and expert advice.

Welcome to ‘Woman Made Well’ with Candice Wood, a podcast that empowers women through the highs and lows of pregnancy, postpartum, and motherhood. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed or isolated, this is your supportive space.

Hi, I'm Dr. Candice Wood.

I am a board-certified OB/GYN with added certification in perinatal mood disorders. I have loved treating women's health for 18 years. My journey has led me to focus the 2nd half of my career on women's mental health, an area that I feel is tragically undertreated.

My goal for this podcast is to create a space that is as safe as my clinic couch - a place to feel understood, motivated, and prepared to meet the challenges and find the beauty of parenthood. You don't have to lose yourself to be a good mother - in fact, finding yourself in motherhood will take you to depths of joy you never imagined.  

Will you let me show you how?
