Momwell — Health & Fitness
Momwell

We often enter motherhood envisioning joy, nurturing, peace, and love. But the reality can blindside us. Nobody tells us about Mom Rage, overstimulation, intrusive thoughts, or other mental health struggles. Unfortunately, when we seek help, we might face a lack of support, a system that doesn’t put moms first, and a world that turns a blind eye to the challenges of motherhood. We’re here to change that. We believe that moms deserve access to community, support, and mental health literacy. If you’re struggling with motherhood, you’re not alone–and you’re not failing. On The Momwell Podcast, host and psychotherapist Erica Djossa teaches strategies to help you cope with the psychological and emotional load of motherhood and prioritize your mental health and wellbeing. Erica shares the best kept secrets of the therapy world and interviews other professionals (psychologists, pediatricians, psychiatrists, fertility specialists, lactation consultants, and more!) who provide their expertise to empower you on your motherhood journey.

253: Fed is Best and Formula Can Save Lives with Dr. Christie del Castillo-Hegyi, Co-Founder of Fed Is Best Foundation Nov 27, 2024

Show notes

There was a time when moms weren’t supported on their breastfeeding journey. Now, things have changed a lot—but in some ways, the pendulum has swung too far. Not only are moms shamed for using formula—but the pressure to exclusively breastfeed can also lead them to miss important signs that they need to supplement. The Fed is Best foundation wants to change that and empower moms with knowledge and autonomy.

This week on The Momwell Podcast, I’m joined by emergency physician Dr. Christie del Castillo-Hegyi, co-founder of Fed is Best and expert on insufficient infant nutrition. We discuss the goals of the “fed is best” campaign, why rigid guidelines on breastfeeding are leaving moms and babies at risk, and how moms can spot signs that their infants are being underfed.

Show notes

Moms are overworked, undervalued, and burnt out. And being defaulted into the care work in the home is a large part of why. But if we can learn how to push back, create change, and advocate for more value on care work, we can find a different way forward.

This week on The Momwell Podcast, I’m joined by Blessing Adesiyan, Founder & CEO of Mother Honestly Group Inc., to discuss the value of care work and how we can support and empower moms on an individual, societal, and global scale.
