Why does society assume that poor health(and our sanity) is the cost of motherhood? Why is this the message told to moms? No more. We cure diseases. We create artificial ears using 3-D printers. We solved how to pee in space. We can figure this out too, and now Dr. Darria has done just that.As an ER doctor, Dr. Darria understands having too much to do in too little time. No matter what comes though those ER doors, she has to know, “I’ve got this.” But then she became a patient – and later a mom of two – and realized that she suddenly couldn’t say the same about her own wellbeing. It quickly became clear that the current health paradigm for patients was not working.

So, she combed the latest in medicine, psychology, and holistic health for answers to this mom crisis. She took the 100+ most high-yield and science-backed solutions and turned them into Mom Hacks: tiny-changes-that-lead-to-major shifts and improvements in health and wellbeing for mom and baby.

Moms will get everything they need in short, eas-to-read blurbs, getting them back on their way. Mom Hacks doesn’t add to your to-do list; it makes it easier to do. So you can know, “I’ve got this.” So you can be the mother and woman you want to be. At last it’s time for a new mom world order.

Dr. Darria Long Gillespie is a Yale- and Harvard-trained emergency physician, author of the upcoming book Mom Hacks (Hachette Book Group, release date February 19, 2019), and a regular TV expert on HLN, CNN, The Dr. Oz Show, The Doctors, and Fox News.

A mom of two herself, Dr. Darria is quickly becoming the national ‘go-to’ doctor for women and parenting health – Dr. Oz refers to her as the “make-life-better-for-women doctor”. Dr. Darria is also a Clinical Assistant Professor at the University of Tennessee School of Medicine. She received her MBA from Harvard Business School, MD from the University of Rochester School of Medicine, and residency training from Yale School of Medicine.

Mom Hacks has also been endorsed by Dr. Oz, Dr. Sanjay Gupta, CNN anchor Lynn Smith, and Dr. William Sears. The point of “hacks” is that they are the smallest incremental and most scientific shortcuts to make good wellbeing (and sanity) doable, and to help moms everywhere get back their “I’ve got this”.
