  • Episode 39: Mommy Blogging with Danila Davidson

    Danila approaches happiness as a choice and she shares it with her ever growing community on Instagram. I'm a NYC mom to 4 little ones, soon to be mom of 5. Originally from Italy, I relocated to NYC from sunny Australia a little over 8 years ago, while pregnant with my first baby girl.

    As for my background I’m a “political scientist” turned “tech founder”, turned “content creator” a few years ago. I love NYC, its energy & people, and most of all the community of incredible moms I’m part of, my sweet village. I'm currently trying to "live my best life + work on my dreams” while raising young children in the most beautiful city in the world, together with my Israeli husband, Ron.

  • Episode 33: Late term abortion story with Haylie Grammer

    What would make a Texas church going God fearing Christian into an abortion rights advocate? Haylie Grammer, history professor and mom of two, tells us in this important episode about women's health care. You can find follow Haylie @hayliegrammer on Instagram where she shares insightful videos we can all learn from. Haylie often identifies herself as the personification of the phrase, “jack of all trades, master of none.” Due to a long term relationship with ADHD she has developed a skill of dabbling in lots of things and gathering just enough skills and knowledge to give the appearance of being an expert. A list of these might include: motherhood, deconstruction, history, teaching, abortion bans, styling, and of course ADHD. One of her favorite hobbies is spreading the Pro-Abortion cause and educating people and white male politicians on the nuances that surround the situations that call for this medical procedure. She also enjoys spending time with her husband, daughter, and friends that have become family. Overall, Haylie is just another mom who is trying to not screw it all up while also trying to make the world a better place for her daughter to grow up.
