Don't Suffer in Silence: Asking for Support as a NICU Mom

Description

Tanisha, a Medical Mom of NICU, shares her weekend vending at the National Black Book Festival, celebrating her daughter’s birthday, and the relief she found by asking for respite support. She talks about selling her children’s book about her son’s fight, connecting with other parents and professionals, and hearing encouraging transplant stories.


The episode’s core message is to ask for help and prioritize self-care—using family, friends, social workers, and community resources—so NICU and medically complex moms can rest, network, and continue advocating for their children.
