In this episode, I get into it with my good friend, Ayshia, and we definitely could have kept talking for several more hours!

Dr. Ayshia opens up about why she believes the true purpose of life is pleasure, discovering Buddhism along the way of her IVF journey, and how she rediscovered creativity and her passion for singing postpartum. We also touch on racism and sexism within maternal health and the importance of advocating for yourself. And we wrap it up with some powerful life advice!

I hope you enjoy listening as much as I do!

I had the best time chatting with the wonderful Betsy Collamore! She’s a mom herself who’s been through postpartum challenges, and now she’s passionate about getting moms moving...whether through fitness, socializing, or even a good book club.

How else can we help moms get out of the house, make friends, feel good, and have some fun?

I was thrilled to sit down with and get to know Erin Ronder Neves from Beyond Birthing Village and Dr. Courtney Neill from Foundations Family Chiropractic for a powerful conversation about pregnancy, birth, and early motherhood...and the incredible work they’re doing to support women and families across the North Shore!

In this episode, Erin and Courtney open up about their own postpartum journeys, the anxieties and pressures new parents face, and why true support for parents is just as essential as caring for the baby. We explore how community support, informed choices, and compassionate guidance can transform the early parenting experience.

Erin, Courtney, and I are cooking up an entire Beyond Birthing mini-series within I Brought You Intro This World, so stay tuned for that!

This week, Amanda chats with Natasha Veatch about motherhood, identity, and the importance of friendship and connection. Natasha is a fellow toddler mom to her sweet 2-year-old son, Myles. Growing up with a single mom in a big family, she often took on the role of the sometimes overlooked "easy" middle child, and now she's deeply intentional about giving her son the one-on-one attention and support he needs to thrive.
