Hello, and thank you for joining us.
I’m Nayol, a nurse, midwife, and mother of two young girls. I created BodyOwn because, like many mothers, I carried on with a smile while quietly wondering why my body still felt broken months after giving birth.
My career began in neonatal intensive care, then community midwifery. In those tender moments with families, I saw how deeply new parents need reassurance, rest, and someone to see them beyond the baby. Even with the best care, postnatal support too often ends too soon.
When I became a mother myself, I lived that reality. Despite two healthy births, I faced ongoing health challenges for years before finding a recovery path that worked for me. I now see how much feeling well in myself shapes the wellbeing of my family.
From that journey, BodyOwn emerges as a practical and compassionate space where every woman’s recovery is personal, supported, and celebrated.
Bodyown is now a growing community of clinicians, creators, researchers and women who care deeply about redefining recovery together.
Our team, collaborators and advisors share the common purpose of making postnatal health and wellbeing accessible, empathetic, and validated. And we work with clinical knowledge, lived experience, and collaborative thinking to reshape women’s health support.
We serve with compassion and curiosity, building a space where women feel seen, heard, and celebrated as they find their own rhythm after childbirth. Every lesson, tool, and conversation is shaped by care, expertise, and shared purpose.
Because when women are well, families and communities thrive, and that’s something worth building together.
