  • Choosing Motherhood on Your Own Terms Feat. Sydney

    Choosing Motherhood on Your Own Terms Feat. Sydney
    2024/06/19
    Can we talk about societal pressure for a sec? 🕰️ As women hit their 30s, the noise around the "biological clock" gets super loud. But guess what? Our worth isn't tied to our reproductive choices! Embrace Your Own Timeline!

    This week Mandii B is joined by co-creater of Official Box Owner, producer, and friend Sydney. Sydney shares that age 38 she is constantly pressured by her family to have children before it’s “too late”.Although there is validity in the biological clock, Sydney’s experience of being a stepmom to five boys allowed her nurturing instincts to flourish, and she realized that love isn't limited to biological ties. It’s about the connection and care you give. 💖

    Adoption, surrogacy, and modern medicine offers various avenues like egg freezing and IVF, allowing women to make informed decisions about their future. Planning and researching these options provide peace of mind and empower women to take control of their reproductive health.The biggest takeaway? Make life choices on YOUR terms. Whether it's about having kids, starting businesses, or chasing any dream. Life isn't a one-size-fits-all journey.

    Embrace yours uniquely- and that’s on PERIOD SIS.

  • Supporting A Friend Through An Abortion Feat. Keda

    Supporting A Friend Through An Abortion Feat. Keda
    2024/05/29
    This week Host Mandii B is joined by long time friend, Keda, for a very special and personal episode about the decision to have an abortion and the important role their friendship played during such a major decision.

    The two talk about the origin and organic growth of their teenage friendship and how emotionally and financially impactful their support was to each other during that time. Now that they’re all grown up and in MUCH different place in life from their 16 year old selves, they reflect on how revisiting this conversation years later has been extremely painful but also very essential to their healing journey today.

    Send this to a friend that needs to hear this episode. If you’ve supported a friend through an abortion, or know someone who has, it may be a good idea to check in on them and see how they’re doing today.

    Fibroids & Infertility Feat. Sabine
    2024/05/22
    This week Host Mandii B is joined by guest Sabine who shares her personal battle with fibroids and fertility. From laparoscopic to abdominal myomectomies, Sabine shares how each surgical intervention carries its aftermath of recovery and emotional toll. These surgeries, while aiming to remove fibroids and restore normalcy, can recur, leading to repeated procedures that can be both physically and emotionally draining.

    This episode highlights the necessity of persistent self-advocacy in dealing with healthcare professionals. This initiative is crucial, particularly in conditions like fibroids, which are often downplayed or misinterpreted by standard medical examinations.Sabine also shares an annual test you should be asking your doctor about for preventive fibroids care.
