It takes a Village to Raise a Child - but where is mine? This is where The Village Mamas comes giving some of their ideas on how they support families in the community of Regina, Moose Jaw, Saskatoon and more.I was so excited getting to interview them as they really had powerful ideas.Village Mamas YQR, led by Desire Radwanski, Jenna Hehn and Kate Sutherland, is a women-owned social enterprise reimagining how families are supported in Regina. Founded three years ago by Jenna, Kate, and Desire, the business was created in response to a clear gap: mothers needed practical, flexible support that reflected their real lives, not one-size-fits-all solutions. Village Mamas offers wraparound services that ease the mental load of motherhood while allowing families to define their own needs. Within six months of opening, the founders launched a sister non-profit to ensure supports were accessible to families facing financial barriers through self-determined eligibility. Together, the business and non-profit have supported dozens of families, created meaningful employment for mothers, and built a culture where asking for help is welcomed and normalized.

Welcome to Womb Talk - Season Four and there is no better way to start a series off then listening to my Mentor. She shares how she started Bebo Mia - her journey as a birth and postpartum doula and what got her training others. Then she even remanences on my starting point as a doula and the impact I made on her.

Overall this episode is near and dear to my heart - so I hope you take a listen and follow Bebo Mia to support my roots.

Bianca Sprague is the founder of bebo mia inc and has been a doula, educator, author, and activist since 2007. Her work sits at the intersection of reproductive justice, community care, and sustainable education for birth workers. Bianca is deeply committed to making fertility, birth, and postpartum education more accessible, especially for women and queer folks who are too often pushed to the margins of care systems.

Her path into this work was shaped by lived experience. After becoming a parent, Bianca navigated undiagnosed postpartum depression in an unsafe home environment with very little support. In 2012, she also lost her father to suicide, an experience that further grounded her advocacy for mental wellness, grief literacy, and honest conversations about what families are carrying behind closed doors. These experiences continue to inform her teaching, leadership, and refusal to accept shallow or rushed models of care.

Bianca created bebo mia in response to the gaps she experienced in her own doula training, which was brief, incomplete, and disconnected from the realities of working parents and helpers. Today, bebo mia trains doulas and care workers in over 50 countries, with a strong emphasis on trauma informed education, community building, business sustainability, and joy as a collective practice. Bianca speaks candidly about women’s rage, burnout, queerness, and the systems that fail families, while offering grounded, practical tools for building care work that is ethical, livable, and deeply human.

As a holistic doula and women's health coach Elisabeth van der Wilt is sharing the new name for PCOS - Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome (PMOS) and she thought she would spread her thoughts, and the reasoning behind such a choice.

If you were looking for more info regarding this choice - then this episode is for you.

The importance of nourishing your body for your monthly cycle is something we all should be doing after we give birth. Not enough women take focus on that time after we give birth to promote a healthy body that allows us to get our cycles back in their regular rthym.

In this episode, I take a moment to speak on some ways to promote nourishment you get the most out of your postpartum recovery planning for cycles once more.

Join Tamilynn as she talks all things Menopause Libido! Using her fun and entertaining personality as she educates us on the ins and outs of menopausal libido!

So don't leave your sensuality as a thing of the past - take it into the new frontier that is peri-menopause and menopause and become the sexy woman you were always meant to be!

A little about Tamilynn:

I’m a Board Certified Clinical Sexologist, Sex & Intimacy Coach, and founder of Sensuality Coach Clinic. My work supports women and couples especially those navigating perimenopause, menopause, and major life transitions to reconnect with their bodies, their pleasure, and their relationships without shame or stigma.

I believe sexuality is a normal, lifelong part of wellness, not something that expires with age, motherhood, or changing hormones. Through education, coaching, and holistic tools, I help women understand desire, arousal, pelvic and vaginal health, communication, and self-trust so intimacy becomes playful, safe, and empowering instead of stressful or confusing.

My approach blends clinical knowledge with real-life compassion. I talk openly about the things many of us were never taught: how bodies actually work, why desire changes, how trauma or birth can affect intimacy, and how to rebuild connection with ourselves and our partners.

Let's talk about the cultural conditioning we've been programed for amongst menstrual health - we are often shamed and possibly feel like a burden most times when it comes to that "aunt flow" but let me tell you something...

You are so much more! I want to take a little rant moment with this episode and share with you some key points surrounding menstrual shame and how to not give a shit! In most literal term ever.
