Today’s episode is filled with such beautiful vibes, and I am so excited to share it with you! In this episode, I sit down with Stephanie Lopez. Stephanie is a mother of two, and an Organizational Psychologist and Executive Coach supporting high-achieving mamas in their journey to becoming their best selves through self-discovery. Stephanie went from working as an Organizational Development Advisor at NASA, to having a life-changing experience that birthed the work she does with mothers today. In this conversation, we will dive into her own self-transformation journey, how she left a job that she loved to follow her passion, and profound yet simple actionable steps that you can take to begin your own journey to becoming your best self.
Enjoy!

In today’s episode, I sat down with Oceana Hazut, a woman and a mother walking the path least traveled, as most would say! Oceana has spent the majority of her life learning about natural women’s medicine, rituals and traditions of the womb, and healing ancestral lineages. She had always felt a deep calling to become a birth worker, and once she transitioned into motherhood herself, she began pursuing her work as a Holistic Childbirth educator. In this episode we dive into her motherhood journey, her birth story, the work she does with mothers, ancestral birthing and what that really means, as well as the natural hormonal physiology of birth - a topic which is extremely fascinating - and so much more! Oceana is a woman that walks the talk, and holds so much experiential wisdom. Having her on the podcast was such an honor, and I am so grateful to share this episode with you today!

In today's episode, I converse with the beautiful Brandi Frazier. A mama that saved her own life and is now changing other mama's lives. She had an extremely traumatic experience postpartum, almost losing her life. But through advocating for herself she was able to save her own life. From this experience, an incredible platform was born. Brandi created Bee Empowered Mama with the vision to support mothers at every stage of their journey by providing them with all the right knowledge to feel empowered and remember that their voice and needs do matter. In this interview we will discuss her birth experience, how she healed the trauma from her postpartum experience, the work she is doing with mothers today, valuable advice on how to advocate for yourself, and a topic that I am very much new to but want to continue learning about - Black Maternal Health Crisis. Knowledge is power and this episode is just that. This conversation left me feeling inspired, empowered, and just vibrating; and I have no doubt it will do the same for you!
Enjoy!

In this episode, I chat with two beautiful souls: Mother and daughter Anne and Laura Smollon from What You Never Expect, a platform created to support mamas in every stage of their journey with a strong focus on reclaiming their sense of self. Anne has a master's in social work, is an NLP practitioner, positive psychology coach, and author, as well as a veteran mama of three children! Laura is a graphic designer, digital editor, nutrition coach in training and has a beautiful perspective to share from the child's point of view. In the interview, we dive into how Anne and Laura built a strong bond and the parenting techniques that created a happy, harmonious dynamic in their family. We also discuss Maternal Intrapersonal Anxiety, a term that Anne created to describe the loss of self some mothers experience; we talk about grief in motherhood, how to navigate these feelings and come back to ourselves, and SO much more.
I hope you enjoy this one and receive as much value as I did! I genuinely wish I could have conversed with Laura and Anne forever because they both have a beautifully unique perspective that holds so much value for us mamas.

On Today’s episode, we are conversing with Carmen from the Birth Coach Company! She is a wealth of knowledge with a beautiful holistic approach to pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. In this episode, we discuss how to prepare for birth by releasing fears and creating a positive mindset, listening to intuition, getting your body into alignment, educating yourself, as well as what your partner can do to support you best. We also dive into her own birth story and her experience with postpartum depression. All in all, this was such an incredible conversation that I know will educate and inspire both expecting mama’s, and mama’s that might be experiencing trauma from their birth experience.

Helloooo beauties! Welcome back to the podcast.
In today's episode, we get to chat with Chrissy L, also known as @The.Peaceful.Sleeper on Instagram! She is a mama of four, a baby sleep expert, a licensed therapist, an entrepreneur, and an overall badass! I have been following her since Ava was born and she helped me tremendously with getting her sleep in check just through the content she shares. There is so much value in all of it! In this episode, we discuss the importance of sleep, how it affects our physiology, and our child's development. As well as how we can help our children sleep better. We also touch on sleep training, and her method, which is a much more gentle approach. And one of my favorite parts, how she juggles being a mama, wife, and successful entrepreneur!
