  • How Mocha Moms Helped One Caribbean Mom Build Her U.S. Village

    How Mocha Moms Helped One Caribbean Mom Build Her U.S. Village
    Jul 17 2025
    In this episode of Healing After Birth, we speak with Nadia Mondesier, New York State Coordinator for Mocha Moms, about her powerful journey from solo immigrant to community leader. Four years into motherhood—and still feeling isolated in a new town—Nadia’s search for support ended when she discovered the Westchester chapter of Mocha Moms. What began as a quest for connection became a calling to serve. Nadia opens up about the trauma of nearly losing her newborn at just 17 days old, how that experience shaped her parenting, and why trusting her maternal instincts became her greatest strength. From building chosen family to advocating for moms across the state, Nadia reminds us that healing begins with community—and that no mother should have to navigate it all alone.

    Birth, Burnout, and the Power of Natural Healing: How Dr. LaJoyce Brookshire Navigated Late-Stage Motherhood
    Jul 10 2025
    Before she became “The Good Doctor,” Dr. LaJoyce Brookshire helped shape pop culture behind the scenes—repping icons like Whitney Houston, TLC, and Diddy at the height of hip hop and R&B’s golden era. But after a fibroid diagnosis, a late-stage pregnancy, a C-section, and the raw realities of postpartum recovery, she made a pivotal decision to embrace her passion for holistic health full-time. In this powerful episode, Dr. Brookshire shares how she used natural medicine, fierce discipline, and spiritual grounding to not just survive pregnancy and birth—but thrive afterward. From C-sections and postpartum recovery to career pivots and kitchen cleanouts, she reveals what it really takes to heal your body—and your life—on your own terms.

  • From Survival to Support: Fixing Maternal Mental Health One Mom at a Time

    From Survival to Support: Fixing Maternal Mental Health One Mom at a Time
    Jul 3 2025
    In this deeply personal and powerful episode of Healing After Birth, hosts Marcia Cole and Nana Eyeson-Akiwowo dig into the recently released 2025 Maternal Mental Health State Report Card and ask: why is mediocrity the standard in a country with so many resources? Joined by the remarkable founders of the Black Girls Mental Health Collective—Dr. Jaih Craddock, Breea Wainwright, and Dr. Chyna Hill—this episode explores the invisible wounds of the postpartum experience: from maternal rage and sleep deprivation to the generational trauma of being forced to “do it all” alone. Through their own raw stories and expertise, these women dismantle myths, explain the science behind somatic mental health symptoms, and share how culturally attuned care is saving lives. Whether you’re a mom, a policymaker, or part of someone’s village, this is a must-listen conversation about reclaiming agency, rebuilding systems, and reminding moms: you don’t have to do this alone.
