Thousands of women joke about getting knocked up by their gay best friend when they get fed up with dating. Follow my decision to ACTUALLY do it: learning about the single mother by choice community, failed DIY attempts, to choosing IVF. 

So you just had a baby... let's talk the raw, unfiltered journey of birth, postpartum, and all things baby-related. I'm Mackenzie, a seasoned labor and delivery, as well as postpartum nurse and fellow mom. In a world filled with mixed messages and unrealistic expectations, I'm here to offer a refreshing unbiased look at birth & postpartum.

 With my background as a nurse and my personal journey as a mother to two little boys, I intimately understand the joys and challenges that come with motherhood. I'm not afraid to lay it all out there—the exhaustion, the exhilaration, and the immeasurable rewards.

In each episode, I delve into diverse birth stories and feeding journeys, sharing real-life experiences from parents who have been there. I offer practical insights about the intricacies of labor, delivery, and postpartum. But this podcast isn't just about the medical side—it's also about the emotional journey. I believe in shedding light on every facet of parenthood, from proudly wearing my stretch marks and messy mom bun to sipping I microwaved coffee for the umpteenth time.

Expect no fear-mongering, no judgment, and no unrealistic expectations. Instead, "The Mackenzie on Motherhood" podcast is your safe space for learning, growing, and embracing the beautiful chaos of parenting. Whether you're a first-time parent or navigating the challenges of parenthood again, Mackenzie's candid revelations will leave you feeling well-prepared and confident on your own parenting journey.

Because I Said So! is a podcast by John Rosemond. John is the nation’s leading parenting expert and provides common-sense advice for raising your children. John is a nationally syndicated columnist, author and public speaker. His audiences are left feeling empowered, educated and entertained.

A family psychologist by license, John points out to all his audiences that “psychology has caused more problems than it has solved for American parents.” John’s mission is to be a counter-weight to the psychological parenting paradigm that was sold to America in the late 1960s/early 1970s, restore commonsense to the raising of children, and give parents the guidance needed to raise happy, well-mannered children who will, as adults, contribute value to culture and society.  

Searching for that parenthood balance so when our kids are old they look back and say, "yeah, my dad (or mom) was awesome," however we get there. And while we love our kids unconditionally, that doesn't mean we're wimpy pushover dads who have lost every shred of dignity and respect in the home. Let's find that balance together. We are Max Valverde and Matt Naylor. We are MILKLESS.
