Black women deserve more than just survival. We deserve a system rooted in justice, and a healing journey that leaves room for joy. 🤎✨
If you missed our powerful Black Maternal Health Week live event, we’ve brought the entire conversation straight to the podcast! 🎙️
In this episode, I sit down with a dream team of world-changers to discuss the realities of systemic failure, the invisible weight of maternal mental health, and the radical act of finding healing in community.
Prepare to take notes as these powerhouses drop absolute gems: ✨ Shivonne Odom-Chase (@akomacounseling) breaks down why Black mothers are so often misdiagnosed and how to fiercely protect our mental peace. ✨ Jaye Wilson (@melianatedmoms) shares what it really looks like when a community steps up to support a grieving family beyond the initial condolences. ✨ Vanessa Hanible (@doula.vanessa) takes us inside the delivery room to show how doulas bridge the trust gap and act as shields for Black birthing people.
We are answering the hard questions: What does safe care look like? How do we hold both profound grief and unexpected joy? And what does the future of maternal health actually need to look like?
