Ep. 16: Breastfeeding Is Best — And My Tips to Actually Make It Successful
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, I open up about why I’m unapologetically biased toward breastfeeding — biblically, biologically, and practically. We dig into God’s design for feeding infants, the unmatched benefits of breastmilk, and why breastfeeding is worth fighting for even when it’s challenging. I also share the mindset shifts, practical strategies, and simple habits that helped me succeed and can set you up for a strong breastfeeding experience too. Whether you’re pregnant, nursing your first baby, or looking for inspiration to try again, this episode will encourage you, equip you, and remind you that you were made for this.
