In this episode, we explore cannabis use during pregnancy, lactation, and the postpartum period through a harm-reduction and evidence-informed lens. This conversation is not about judgment or fear, but about supporting informed decision-making, reducing stigma, and creating space for honest, nuanced conversations around cannabis and parenthood. We are all cannabis-informed doulas, and Kristin is a cannabis educator and the founder of the Mary Jane Doula Collective.

This podcast provides resources for new parents and examines the socio-cultural influences on parenting.
