May 12, 2025 troubleshooting common breastfeeding challenges
In this episode we are holding space for the bumps in the road that can come with breastfeeding - sore nipples, latch, ties, and more. While it’s natural, it’s not always easy and knowing how to navigate the hard moments can make all the difference.
We also reflect on the emotional side of breastfeeding struggles and how to stay connected to your intuition even when things feel hard.

In this week’s episode, Taylor shares the personal stories of her two birth experiences. One that was long, dramatic, and filled with unexpected, unwanted interventions, and another that unfolded with calmness and confidence.
We explore what happens when birth doesn’t go according to plan, how to process and grow from those moments, and how Taylor’s first labor shaped the experience of her second son’s birth. This conversation is a testament to the strength of mothers, the wisdom we carry from one birth to the next, and the transformation that comes along the way.
