Ep. 47 - Guest: Kelly Cox, Co-Founder of the Life-Giving Breast Milk-Sharing App: Share the Drop

As a registered prenatal yoga teacher and birth doula, Kelly Cox has supported thousands of families through pregnancy, birth and parenthood. In her yoga studio, families connected over the trials and tribulations of pre/postpartum bodies, sleep training, partner relationships and of course, infant feeding. Taking note of her clients' emotional well being, Kelly realized that feeding newborns created a wave of stress, pressure and often led to postpartum depression. She has held weekly free lactation support groups and regularly helps match local families with an excess supply of milk to families in need. And as a breast cancer survivor, she gives particular attention to fellow survivors sourcing milk for their infants.

Within this candid conversation, she shares: why "selfish" isn't a four-letter word and how finally allowing herself self-care supported her through many levels of grief and surviving cancer; the importance of community, connecting with others, and expressing how you feel about someone; and the incredible work she dedicates her days to, as a founder of the breast milk-sharing app: Share the Drop.
