    Take What You Need with Aundi Kolber

    One of our all-time favorite guests, Aundi Kolber—author, mother, and therapist—is back, and today she’s encouraging us to take what we need. Aundi sheds light on how and why we end up disembodied, how to reclaim connection with our God-given needs (especially as moms), and how we can play the role of participant in our own healing. Whether you’re struggling to notice what you’re lacking or struggling to prioritize your own care, we adore Aundi’s nudge to approach ourselves and circumstances with tenderness, but also a touch of fierceness that proclaims, “I matter.” This show is brought to you ad-free by our generous Substack community. If you’d like to support the work we do for as little as $3/month, head to coffeeandcrumbs.substack.com to join us (and get bonus episodes!). For show notes, go to coffeeandcrumbs.net/podcast. Aundi helped us tune into our needs.

    What’s Saving My Life Right Now

    From rediscovering the art of thrifting to embracing breathwork, today we’re sharing what’s keeping us grounded in the midst of life’s demands. While Ashlee’s fueling her body with protein smoothies and filling her Little Free Library with hope-filled books, Katie’s got Jackie Hill Perry in her earbuds and Half Baked Harvest meals on her plate. We hope this episode inspires you to find a workspace with loads of natural light (it doesn’t have to be a coffee shop!) and a sliver of time to finally clean out that junk drawer.  This show is brought to you ad-free by our generous Substack community.

    Making a Mother E5: This Is Not Your Fault

    Amanda spends two years of her impressionable adolescence under the care of Larry Nassar, former family medicine physician and team doctor of the US women’s national gymnastics team. Having not fully understood that what she experienced was abuse, it’s only later—when Amanda and her husband struggle to conceive—that the details of her painful story come to light. Then, just as the case against Larry begins to hit the media, Amanda becomes pregnant. She steps forward, along with 155 other women, to testify against Nassar in court. Amanda uses her voice for the daughter she’s carrying, and in the process re-discovers her own.

    Making a Mother E4: Why Aren’t We Doing Things To Change This?

    Jerrell’s first baby is born six weeks premature, despite an otherwise typical and healthy pregnancy. At her postpartum appointment, she learns that Black women are 60% more likely to give birth prematurely than white women, and that Black maternal and infant mortality rates are more than double those of white women — regardless of socio-economic status or education.
