It's time to say goodbye
I am saying goodbye. Why? I started this podcast as at that time there wasn't really anyone in the podcast space focusing on the feeding stories. But now there is. Bigger podcasts have picked up on this important topic. Podcasts who had previously started and dropped off, have once again picked up and are telling these stories... AND I am so thrilled! They have a bigger audience, they have further reach. And that is all I wanted; that our collective feeding stories, not just the birth s...

Nandi: midwife, doula, mother: what three births taught me about breastfeeding
In this episode I’m joined by Nandi—a midwife, doula, and Hypnobirthing educator based in Sweden. But beyond her professional expertise Nandi is also a mother of three—an 18-year-old daughter and two sons, aged 10 and 6—all of whom were breastfed, though each journey looked very different. From struggling with painful latching and early formula supplementation with her first, to recovering from a c-section and learning the power of breast compressions with her second, to finally experiencing ...

Bria: What if breastfeeding wasn’t just about nourishment, but about connection, resilience, and even defiance?
Today, I’m joined by Bria—a mother of two, living in Grenada in the West Indies—who has embraced breastfeeding as more than just feeding. From her first-ever public feed on the London Underground to nursing a four-year-old despite outside opinions, Bria has navigated her journey with strength and conviction. She shares how witnessing women breastfeed before becoming a mother shaped her own openness, the pain and power of feeding through a medicalised birth, and the raw beauty of her second ex...

Claire: Feeding twins, raising 5 & training as a midwife: The journey through NICU, sepsis & postpartum exhaustion and depression
In this episode Claire joins me; a mum of five and midwife, whose feeding journeys have been anything but straightforward. After breastfeeding her first baby with ease for a year, she assumed it would be the same with the rest—but life had other plans. When her second baby needed surgery just days after birth, she found herself expressing around the clock. Then came her third, who struggled to latch for six long weeks due to an uncoordinated suck reflex. And just when she thought her fa...

Mel - Many off putting messages, yet breastfeeding and bed sharing for 18 months as she trusted herself deeply
I’m joined today by Mel, who takes us through how she navigated early struggles when her milk took almost a week to come in, and the overwhelming pressure from professionals to supplement with formula. A lactation consultant even told her she might never be able to breastfeed at all as her boobs were too small– so how did these seeds of doubt impact Mel’s feeding experience? With family doubting her supply, she stood firm, trusting her body and her baby. Bed-sharing from day one became a life...
