    New York Vs New Zealand Pregnancy, Birth and Postpartum with Becca Loveless

    Hey Shayla Podcast | Ep: 058
    Guest: @becca.loveless
    It's no secret that general care the United States is sub par at best when it comes to labor and postpartum.  Becca Loveless and her husband moved to NZ when their first was just 10 months old. 
    While living in New Zealand they became pregnant with their second. I've been eager to talk with her about the similarities and differences in her pregnancy, labor and delivery and postpartum experience each place!

    057 - Mom Influencer with over 500k+ followers... deleted her account.

    Do you ever question your own screen time or time on social media? Have you ever considered deleting your social media accounts? This Influencer (with over half a million followers) did. 
    Hey Shayla Podcast | Ep: 057

    Guest: Lynzy Coughlin PA-C is a Physician Associate in a Level 1 Trauma Center ED for the past 14+ years. She I created her blog, Lynzy + Co. back in 2008 as a creative outlet from her career. And after spending the 7 (or so) years on social media , she decided to delete it all! She now communicates with her community via newsletters only as well as through her podcast, Motherhood Meets Medicine.

    She was overwhelmed with the amount of information online and how toxic it could be. And now shares the immense value of limiting your time online and expanding your life by soaking up more time in solitude.

    I asked her to be on the podcast to talk about life AFTER instagram and what it has brought to her life to encourage some of us to get off the app and connect in real life!

SydneeRM ,

Love this!

You know when you’re listening to something and you feel like “OH! It’s not just me!!” This podcast is like that! ALL THE TIME. I love the honesty, and the lack of judgement, and the support I find in this podcast.

Songs for littles

Shayla I just watched your latest episode. It was good, however, I think you should interview mrs. Rachel from songs for littles on YouTube. It sounds similar to that membership those ladies were selling except it’s FREE. My toddler loves mrs rachel and he has definitely learned words from her. Check it out and I’d love to hear an interview with her!!!

Great work! Really appreciate your content!

EraeFarmer ,

Hmm

Love the idea, but overall this feels unprofessional.
