Previous episode - Depths of Motherhood Podcast - Episode 40 (Mastitis, Aversion, and Inverted Nipples)


Having personally struggled with establishing feeding with her first child, Olivia’s journey inspired her to qualify as a lactation consultant in 2019. Since then, she has been on a mission to empower parents with evidence-based knowledge and judgment-free guidance, ensuring that every family can make informed decisions about how they feed their baby in a way that feels right for them.


In today’s conversation, we’ll delve into :



  • The physiology of breastfeeding, including baby positioning and latch.



  • The truth about common tools like pumps, the Hakka, and silver caps.



  • Managing oversupply, supporting low milk supply, and building confidence.



  • Calling in the “cheerleaders” and creating a safe environment for mothers to thrive.



  • Practical tips for navigating painful nipple and healing wounds



  • Debunk myths about whether babies need winding. 




Whether you’re expecting, new to parenting, or supporting someone in your life on this journey, Olivia’s wisdom is here to inspire and uplift.
