Mother's Day Special Edition Episodes
<p>Hi everyone! Welcome to our Mother’s Day special edition episodes.<b> </b></p><p>Where Flo and I interview our very own mothers. What better way to celebrate and honor the essence of motherhood than to listen to their own birth stories and the advice and wisdom they have to pass down. </p><p>In this episode we hear from Brandy's mom, Liberty Galloway. She’s shares her no frills pregnancy and parenting style. </p><p>And later this week we’ll be hearing from Flo’s mom, Carolyn Speakman and boy does she pass on some nuggets as well.</p><p>In some way their generation made birthing and motherhood look so easy but after hearing from them you’ll get a sense that there can be a balance of what worked then and what works in the present day. <br/><br/>No matter where we get it from or how we decide and decided to give birth it is all valid and we celebrate it all. We also acknowledge the mamas who are trying to become moms, expecting moms, moms who have loss and moms who thrive. We are all in it together and we can do this motherhood thing.</p><p>Happy Mother's Day! </p><p><br/></p>

Two Cesarean Births, Screw The Breastfeeding Hierarchy & Meet Xavier The Xigua Melon
<p>This month of April is a special one. April is Cesarean Awareness Month and <br/>Black Maternal Health Week, spanning from April 11th through April 17th. <br/><br/>Given the alarming rise in black maternal mortality rates in our nation, there's an urgent need to emphasize celebration, awareness-raising, activism, and the voices of Black Mamas and birthing people. <br/><br/>It seemed fitting to continue Season 2 episodes featuring Shardae Webb. Shardae, who has experienced two successful cesarean deliveries with her daughters, took deliberate steps to have her black sister-in-law, who is also a nurse, serve as her advocate and be an integral part of her support network.<br/><b> </b><br/>Shardae also opens up about her challenges with breastfeeding her first daughter and recounts how her husband improvised a makeshift feeding tube like MacGyver. She delves into the concept of a breastfeeding hierarchy and reflects on how she turned this negative stigma into a baby food business, Muva Munch. And she went on to create Webbd Publishing Company and self-published her first children's book,<em> I See Me in the ABCs. <br/><br/></em>Both endeavors were inspired by her daughters to teach them the value of nutrition and to see themselves in the literary platform. In the end of the day she emphasizes the importance of mothers doing what's best for their children and family regardless of societal pressures.</p><p>You can purchase the book directly from her publishing company's website below<br/>Website: <a href='https://webbdpubco.com/'><b>https://webbdpubco.com/</b></a><br/>IG: <a href='https://www.instagram.com/webbdpubco/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAAR2HIRbp4kmy_Z4Vlu78yDcQmfZrdtQ8k0cv934of3mlNxM27Xq3gkIVAzg_aem_AXOunLz6fbXmt0VxjP6XwpO5YGEgBIzqEHcQ1VEI2u-LRbmsh-zUB9XIDJnFjpPJPtIZ-96tdoaJ1wEEOHrOdi7X'>https://www.instagram.com/webbdpubco/</a><br/>Contact: contact@webbdpubco.com<br/><br/></p>
