124 | Nourishing the Future - Why International Breastfeeding Month Matters

In honor of International Breastfeeding Month and World Breastfeeding Week, we reflect on why breastfeeding matters - on a personal, communal, and even global scale.  Drawing from our decades of experience as a labor and delivery nurse, lactation consultant, and Catholic mindset coach, we explore breastfeeding as not just a natural and sustainable way to nourish a child, but as a sacred act that mirrors God’s life-giving love. This episode dives into the environmental benefits of breastfeeding, the role of support and community, and the challenges mothers face in today’s culture.  We discuss the origins of World Breastfeeding Week, powerful international statistics, meaningful ways communities can help new moms, and the unique Catholic perspective on honoring the vocation of motherhood.  Journal Question: How has God invited you to give life and love in this season?  NEXT STEPS: 1.
