Join Emily and Marissa as they interview Camilla Thompson, Black Maternal Health Coordinator for Black Lives Matter NH. In 2022, she started her Reproductive Justice advocacy after the overturn of Roe v Wade while pregnant, which ignited a power in her. Since 2022, Camilla has been an abortion doula for Reproductive Freedom Fund of NH and currently serves as their Board President. In 2024, she experienced her 4th C-section which was extremely traumatic after not receiving the right amount of pain meds. She quickly fell into the statistic of Black women being 2-3x more likely to experience death or a pregnancy related complication, and has since made it her mission to educate about the differences that Black birthing people may experience. Camilla is currently in training to be a birth doula and hopes to continue with her plans to be an RN in the fall.  She is a registered Medical Assistant, a Mom of 4, and a lover of all things Beyoncé.

Join Emily and Marissa as they interview MacKenzie Nicholson, or Kenz, a mom, advocate, and all-around powerhouse for families in New Hampshire. By day, she’s the Senior Director of MomsRising NH, leading grassroots efforts to fight for better child care, maternal health, and policies that actually support families like ours. But beyond that, she’s a regular degular mom navigating all the chaos that comes with it—using TikTok to break down policy in ways that make sense, organizing on-the-ground movements, and making sure lawmakers don’t forget the voices of everyday parents.

Kenz shares the importance of getting involved in the legislative process, the Momnibus 2.0 bill, and self care.
