In honor of World Breastfeeding Week, Katie leads the way in our conversation about Breastfeeding and Weaning as a whole family commitment. How this commitment looks and what challenges are faced vary from the planning and beginning stages of Breastfeeding, to the ongoing efforts to sustain it, and to the inevitable concluding process of Weaning. All of these stages have emotional, relational, and practical components, so listen in this week as we discuss:

• Helpful tips for getting off to the best start to your Breastfeeding jounrey
• The importance of your Village for support and comfort
• Partner focused tips for connecting and supporting the journey every step of the way
• and so much more
