9| Leigh Anne O'Connor IBCLC

Welcome back to the Wild Womb Podcast! This week we get down and dirty with all things breastfeeding. Leigh Anne O'Connor is an IBCLC and long-time La Leche League leader here in New York. She has helped countless families reach their breastfeeding goals and is a reservoir of resources and knowledge in the perinatal worker community. Breastfeeding is a charged subject and is complicated for so many people. We unpack that quite a bit here. I want everyone to feel supported and to understand that breastfeeding is NOT easy and has so much more nuance to it than anyone tells you until you're in the thick of it. The goal here is to understand that it is possible (most of the time), but that we are not set up for success for so many reasons. Women are not given the support they need, and hopefully from this conversation people will feel like they have a better idea of where to go for support through this journey. https://www.lllusa.org/ contact Leigh Anne- https://www.leighanneoconnor.com
