In today’s highly-anticipated episode, we call out the most riveting takeaways from the Lancet’s Breastfeeding Series.
What you will learn:

• The history of CMF (commercial milk formula)
• What “the code” is, why it’s not enforced, and how CMF manufacturers  circumvent or directly violate the code at the expense of mothers’ and babies’ health
• The specific Machiavellian marketing strategies that CMF conglomerates implement globally in order to capitalize on, exploit, and hoodwink women into believing formula is better for their babies
• What is at stake for moms, babies, and society when breastfeeding is replaced by formula
• The myth and misleading nature of the push for “gender equality” & our thoughts on positive vs. harmful feminism and its ties to corporatism, the schism of the nuclear family, and how it all relates to how we feed our babies
• The precise playbook CMFs use to dupe mothers and undermine breastfeeding
• How “experts” spanning from midwives & nurses to doctors & scientists have been bought and paid for and cannot be blindly trusted

If this episode left you feeling angry at CMFs, you're not alone. We leave you with the our call to action (and The Lancet’s) for what can be done to help promote and support breastfeeding. 

What ideas do you have to promote exclusive  breastfeeding so  women are no longer taken advantage of by greedy companies whose claims are completely unsubstantiated by “the science”? Email us or send us an audio note/DM on instagram.

The MOTR moms are back! In today's episode, we welcome Nicole Cheever who is a mom of three, EC (Elimination Communication) connoisseur, and co-host of the Go Diaper Free podcast for an illuminating and humbling conversation on all things EC. 
Nicole reveals how and when the diaper industry began prying its avaricious claws into busy moms, and how the downward spiral our modern lifestyle rooted in convenience culture has had detrimental psychological and physical impacts when we choose to leave kids in diapers well into toddlerhood and beyond. 

EC doesn't have to be this all or nothing idealistic and unattainable endeavor that only crunchy full-time stay-at-home moms can accomplish. Just the opposite, actually! Nicole dissects the assumption that prematurely pottying kids is "traumatic". 

After listening to today's episode, you'll hopefully feel assured that regardless of your prior traumas or pitfalls with EC'ing and potty-training and despite your children's ages, you can take simple actions and make mindset shifts to successfully EC and ultimately fully potty train starting right now.

Since Kat was in Italy, April had the pleasure of sitting down with Dr. Stephanie Seneff, author of the mind-blowing book, Toxic Legacy: How the Weedkiller Glyphosate is Destroying Our Health and Environment.

Even if you think you know everything there is to know about organic and non-GMO food and the impact our food choices have, trust us when we say there is always more to unearth. Dr. Seneff's finding are more than alarming. 

In this episode, you will leave with a clearer understanding of:

• The difference between organic and non-GMO foods, and why we might be fighting the wrong battle
• The role epigenetics plays in our exposure to glyphosate; spoiler alert, we need to be thinking 7 generations ahead! 
• The ties between glyphosate and the decline in health and the rise of auto-immune and neurological disorders like autism, ADHD, thyroid disease, IBD, cancers, etc. 
• and so much more!

We reminisce and reflect on what we thought postpartum would be like vs. what it actually looked and felt like.

We chat about everything from hair loss, engorgement, body image and physical changes, moods and how our brains changed, our husbands and the support we received, how we’re different now 7-10 months postpartum vs. in the first couple of weeks, and some other TMI topics 😉.

We'd love to hear your experiences with postpartum, especially if you're a first time mom! Be sure to head over to @momsofftherecordpod on IG and share your stories!

If you’ve already embarked on your crunchy mom journey, you know there is no final destination. The goal post keeps moving!

We each discuss where we are currently with our holistic lifestyle and provide transparency on our crunchy shortcomings. Remember: it’s about the sum of the actions you take the majority of the time versus striving for perfection all of the time since perfection is an illusion.

We share our favorite and must-have crunchy mom brands, products, and practices as well as how we help out one another.

Hear us chat about greenwashing, top toxins we avoid and why, and the hierarchy of the types of eggs and milk.

You’ll understand our individual “whys” in regard to prioritizing our lifestyle choices and the domino effect it has on our children and their future children.

The moms sit down with the one and only Dr. Stu Fischbein of the Birthing Instincts podcast. Like April and Kat, Dr. Stu is 100% unfiltered, uncensored, and unafraid of challenging the establishment. This episode highlights some of our favorite Dr. Stu-isms. We hear his take on:

• How and why the obstetrics model of care is broken, stemming all the way from Residency to Peer Reviewed papers
• Fully trusting our bodies at every stage of womanhood
• Why for the first time in history the powers that be are recommending untested jabs on pregnant women
• “Standard of care” and “informed consent”
• What the Arrive Trial is and why it’s bogus
• Why it’s valid to have a healthy dose of skepticism in regard to ACOG guidelines and medical journal conclusions
• Vitamin K shot: relative vs. actual risk, the Vitamin K drops, and more
• Why vaginal breech and twin births have been on the decline
• How women who desire to have an at-home breech or twin birth can find resources
• Why more women are turning to free/wild birth 
• “Stage 1 thinking”
• What makes the OB profession unique (hint: it’s not the ability to perform a c-section)
• How fear is the most powerful driver behind decisions
• “Cognitive dissonance”
• What unethical medical care looks like

Today's very special guest is none other than Kat's mom, Robin Kier! As a mom of 4 kids (two from her first marriage and two step-kids from her second marriage), a former R.N. of 15 years and a former flight attendant of nearly 20 years, Robin brings a wealth of maternal wisdom, mom-tuition, and insights to the table.

We discuss everything from what drove her into early retirement from the flight attendant career she loved, her takeaways from nursing school and the changes she is witnessing now, the weirdness of the Gardasil and flu jabs, her stance on masking and the "C" jab, and how she knew real animal fats were always healthier than seed oils and fake "butter" and margarine way before it was cool to know that. As usual, we wrap up with questions from our instagram followers.

Thank you for listening!
