If you’re a mom who’s hoping to breastfeed, or maybe you’ve tried before and felt discouraged, you are not alone. In this episode, I’m joined by Jaimie Zaki, a mom of five, former nurse and doula, and an IBCLC (International Board Certified Lactation Consultant), who shares the 5 most common breastfeeding mistakes new moms make and how to move forward with clarity and confidence.

Jaimie shares the wisdom of her personal story and the redemptive journey God led her through to become the kind of support she wishes she had. We’re talking about real challenges, practical solutions, and how to tune into the God-given intuition that already lives inside you as a mother.

We cover:

• Why pain during breastfeeding isn’t something you “just have to push through”
• How to know if your latch is truly effective (even if it looks “fine”)
• Control-based feeding vs. instinctive feeding
• What your intuition is telling you (and how to stop second-guessing it)
• The kind of support to look for when things aren’t going smoothly
