    The Radical Moms Union

    Natasha Vargas-Cooper and Andrea Haskins, co-authors of the Radical Moms Union Substack, join us on the podcast to discuss the #backoffbobbie campaign they launched in August 2023 to draw attention to predatory formula marketing, coming largely from the formula company Bobbie. Bobbie employs manipulative and exploitative tactics to trash breastfeeding and create lifelong customers. We also get into the main themes around breastfeeding, and how breastfeeding advocates are framed as judgmental, shame-y, and unsympathetic. This is an episode you won't want to miss!

    14. IVF, Surrogacy, the Trans Agenda, and More

    In this long-awaited episode, we dive into some sensitive topics including transgender ideology (and so-called "inclusive language"), how transhumanism has invaded the birth world, and how "3rd party" reproduction harms women and children. This is really just the tip of the iceberg, and we will be picking apart some of the specifics in greater detail in the future. For now, we hope this episode provides some insight if you're new to these ideas and realities. 'Whose Body Is It?' podcast - 22.

    13. Family and Freebirth - Nicki's Experience

    Weeeelcome back, y’all! We are here, kicking off season 2 of Coffee and Consent!  No, Nicki has not had her baby yet, but in this season premier, Nicki shares about something many women can relate to: being unsupported in her choice to freebirth. Like we state at the top, we hope to make it clear that our message is not one of spite or bitterness. Lack of support is one of the primary reasons women choose things in their births that are not right for them, and in this episode, we explore what it’s like to make choices in the absence of support from family. It all hinges on what will be the focus of (most) episodes going forward, which is radical responsibility and taking charge of your life and your family. We hope you enjoy!

  4. 12. From Fear to Freebirth - A Man's Perspective

    12. From Fear to Freebirth - A Man's Perspective

    This week, we are very excited to bring you a special episode featuring Nicki's husband James! James tells us of his experience during Nicki's philosophical evolution (which, by association, resulted in his own). James also shares his fears and advice for men whose partners are pursuing a birth outside the system. James grew up knowing almost nothing about reproduction and birth and is now an enthusiastic advocate for women knowing about their bodies and taking responsibility for their births. We hope you find this episode inspiring and helpful and we hope it sparks some meaningful discussions with your spouses, families, and communities.  As always, we would so appreciate you leaving a rating and review on Apple podcasts.

    11. Babydoll Culture

    This episode is one for the books. We touch on so many different topics that are all intertwined and interconnected in a culture that does not value babies as whole, thinking, feeling, sentient human beings. Some of the sides of this issue discussed in this episode include industrialized maternity care, ultrasound, contraception, abortion, surrogacy, IVF, circumcision, the formula industry, and sleep training. If you couldn't tell, we could spend all day talking about all of these issues and our goal is to touch on each facet more in-depth in future episodes.  Please enjoy this episode and consider leaving us a review on Apple podcasts!  Contraception: Why Not by Janet Smith, PhD  American Circumcision Documentary  Instagram - Coffee and Consent

    10. Breastfeeding & Oral Ties w/ Gina Motsay, IBCLC

    Back on the podcast this week, Nicki welcomes Gina to the show! Gina is a navy veteran, a mom of 4, and an International Board-Certified Lactation Consultant. Gina shares her breastfeeding journey, including navigating a lack of support from an IBCLC in her early motherhood days, we discuss oral ties, and how birth impacts breastfeeding. We are so appreciative that Gina took the time out of her schedule as a busy mom and hardworking professional to share her wisdom on the show. You can find Gina on Instagram and from there, learn how to set up one-on-one consults with her. If you would please consider leaving us a rating and review on Apple podcasts, we would super appreciate it!

  7. 9. People-Pleasing: The Reasons and the Repercussions

    9. People-Pleasing: The Reasons and the Repercussions

    While Alicia and Nicki land on many different facets of this topic, they all revolve around this element that we are all familiar with, and that women in particular are socialized to default to. We are bringing to light the fact that many women, particularly during their pregnancies and in preparation for their births, put their own wants and needs on the back burner to accommodate the desires of those around her. This then translates into a lack of boundaries, a lack of responsibility, general loss of self-confidence, and the cycle continues in our children. We discuss the painful realities that we face on a daily basis, either first-hand in our own lives, or coming from the women and families we interact with. We hope you find this episode inspiring, thought-provoking, and encouraging, to prioritize your needs and the needs of your baby ahead of the preferences of other people in your life. People-pleasing is costly and our children bear the brunt.  If you're listening on Apple podcasts, please consider leaving us a rating and review!

  8. 8. Bedsharing, Sleep Training, and the Attachment Relationship w/ Taylor Kulik

    8. Bedsharing, Sleep Training, and the Attachment Relationship w/ Taylor Kulik

    We had the pleasure of chatting with Taylor Kulik, occupational therapist, and sleep & well-being specialist. Taylor shares her sleep training journey and how it ultimately unfolded, as well as how the societal expectations of infant sleep contribute to the harm of the family unit, breastfeeding, and attachment. In this episode, we dive into safe bedsharing, misconceptions about whether it is in fact safe, and the problems that arise when providers withhold safe bedsharing information. We are so thankful that Taylor took the time out of her busy schedule as a wife, mom, advocate, and coach, to chat with us about such important topics. While we understand some families feel that sleep training is their only option, or that it is developmentally advantageous, we acknowledge that sleep training is fundamentally incompatible with fostering a secure attachment relationship, which requires coregulation, responsiveness, and proximity. We hope you find this episode informative, encouraging, challenging, and affirming. Thanks again, Taylor!  As always, please understand that we are all moms and having our little ones close sometimes means they are a part of these episodes and we make no apologies for that.
