For the Love of Milk
For the Love of Milk, hosted by two holistic International Board Certified Lactation Consultants, is the show to help you feel empowered and less alone in your breastfeeding journey. Each week, we explore our experience as clinicians and share the stories of mothers navigating the highs and lows of breastfeeding. This is the perfect show for mothers and mothers-to-be that lack a tribe breastfeeding women around them, are facing breastfeeding challenges, or are feeling isolated in their breastfeeding journeys. For the Love of Milk promises to uplift you and empower you to embrace your internal mothering voice.
