Listen Later

In this heartfelt episode of "Teach the Babies," host Dr. David Johns welcomes friends, activists, and thought leaders Brittany Packnett Cunningham and Jovian Zayne Peters for an intimate conversation about Black motherhood, community building, and raising children with purpose.

The conversation delves into Black mothers' challenges in healthcare systems, the importance of partners who show up fully, and the wisdom passed down through generations. Both women offer powerful insights on raising children who are compassionate, confident, and deeply connected to their cultural heritage.

This episode stands as a testament to the strength of Black motherhood and offers lessons for anyone involved in nurturing the next generation. As Jovian beautifully summarizes, the key is "being malleable, being like water, being present and honoring the seasons" of life.
