I want to share with you a show that has made such a difference in so many women who are breast-feeding's lives. It's called The Milk Making Minutes and it looks at the struggles and triumphs of breast feeding as well as the systemic barriers that women face when they are breast-feeding.

One of the things we talk about on our show is how important it is to be your own advocate. It’s not just about the systemic struggles that people face, it's really down to earth and practical advice about: Are you using the right size flange on your breast pump? How do you deal with a tongue tie? They also talk about the long-term benefits and the hope that breast-feeding can give new moms.

I encourage you to go and check out the show. It’s called The Milk Making Minutes.
