Liquid gold, Mothers Milk, breastfeeding, lactation, baby formula, bottle fed, boobies, Chichi, titties, tata’s, breast pumps, speech therapy, tongue ties, boob barnacles, nipples, machetes…

Let’s get the conversation going and keep that milk flowing because this week we talk about a lot of hot topics, around feeding your baby: with the extraordinary, ( and as we learn badass) Julie Matheney MS, CCC-SLP, CLEC, IBCLC .

She is the founder and CEO or LA Lactation, based in Los Angeles, my family and I had the pleasure of working with her, back in 2021 after my child arrived and is a wealth of knowledge and support on this subject and so much more...

Julie holds a Masters in speech-language pathology and became a certified lactation counselor in 2012, a certified lactation educator counselor and IBCLC in 2018. She enjoys empowering families to feed their babies, by quipping families with the tools and skills they need to feel confident in feeding their babies at all stages of development.

Let’s get real, some of the baby decor and clothes, and other stuff out there for kids is just really LOUD!!!!… And I don’t mean because they’re making weird sounds when you throw them on the ground or play with them. I mean the colors and the designs. Are they really complementary to your personal design, decor & style? Well, when Lisa was designing her brand - Rocks in our pockets, that was one of the elements she was thinking about, plus keeping a low Carbon footprint and having her two girls inspire her. Tune in as we chat with this Irish Goddess about creating and running a small business, work / life balance, pole-dancing, finding her new identity and more... And she shares some great tips to keeping sane along the journey. Because … #youdidit

When you think of a chiropractor, what comes to mind?

Well, it’s more than just putting a rib back in… have you ever thought about getting adjusted to help with conception? Or during your prenatal or postnatal stage…? What about having your newborn adjusted? I mean think about it... they have been cramped up in a uterus for 9 months, and then BOOM, out in the world in car seats and "contraptions"...

These concepts and more are what we talk about on this weeks episode with Dr. Christine Anderson. A chiropractor in Los Angeles with over 30 years of experience with a focus on pediatric chiropractic! “Dr. Chris” has been a part of our lives for over two years and a guiding light for many families in the community and beyond.

Are you nervous about seeing your kid(s) or other peoples kids around bodies of water because they might fall in, don’t know how to swim and drown?

Drowning is the leading cause of unintentional injury-related death for children ages 1-4 and something no one should ever have to experience.

In our first episode you get to meet our baby's ISR coach, David Heil.

David Heil, has been teaching the life saving skill to children from 6 months to 6 years of age learn how to use Infant Swimming Resource’s Self-Rescue skills to save themselves in the water for over 10yrs. And thanks to him and the classes our daughter Nova, (who is just one of the thousands of kids he has taught), is now so confident, cool, calm and collected in the water. Nova started classes with Coach David at around 7 months old and by 11 months old, was able to float in the water. And now at 2yrs old, is a water baby enjoying herself in the pool and loving it!!!

We also share some great info about what kids should wear in the water for safe water practices, what you can do and … how to prevent awkward  moments.

You can find David Heil on Instagram or on his website
