Preparation for both the beginning and end of a breastfeeding journey can greatly affect a momâs overall experience with her child in that respect. Morgan Jackson, nurse, IBCLC, and founder of Prepared Beginnings Lactation, joins for this episode to address a number of frequently asked questions and concerns about breastfeeding, including - the immediate postpartum period, breastfeeding must haves and must âknowsâ, and the difference between common weaning methods. Morgan reminds us that the length of time a parent chooses to breastfeed is far less important than how we honor that journey, and that since mom guilt and shame unfortunately exists regardless of these choices, to be secure and proud of what we provide our babies.

âIt takes a village to raise a child.â Weâve all heard the saying. This week, Amanda and Adriana talk about their thoughts on this exact sentiment, what their villages look like, and how to maximize opportunities for connection in our experiences throughout motherhood. Redefining a village can mean seeking ways to build our support systems, but can also mean learning to let go of what no longer serves us. They discuss how in our all-encompassing roles as moms, vulnerability can be the key to opening the door to true friendship - and whether your cup needs filling in an emotional or physical sense, motherhood was truly never meant to be done alone.Looking to add to your own village?

Understanding our personal and collective histories gives us so much insight into identifying the parts of us that may need healing the most. Selma Bacevac, psychotherapist, author, mother of two, and founder of @balkanmamatherapy, shares her considerable knowledge of intergenerational trauma, her first-hand experience in cycle-breaking, and her passion to empower Balkan parents to lead with compassion while raising their children. In an episode that deeply resonates with Adriana and Amanda, Selma discusses the importance of self-reflection while establishing boundaries with those closest to us, remaining as gentle with ourselves as we strive to be with our children, and processing our feelings through our bodies versus our minds - (and reassures us that "good enough" parenting truly IS good enough!) Amongst many other pieces of wisdom Selma leaves Coffee and Cosleeping listeners with, she also offers so many parents the opportunity to heal within a safe and brave community. This is an episode thatâs worth listening to every minute of.
