  • Bite Sized Empowerment & Encouragement

    Stethoscopes, strollers, sanity, validation, this podcast has it all! At times I’m so blown away and interested in Latoya’s story, most of the time I feel like she’s reading my mind or living my story too. The podcast is truly a breath of fresh air. Listening makes me feel seen and better knowing I’m not alone having these feelings/thoughts/experiences. More importantly I finish each bitesized episode empowered and encouraged on this journey of life.

  • Thank you!

    I have already shared this podcast with other physician moms. I’m also an Ob/Gyn immigrant who is rethinking traditional practice as it does not fit with motherhood and happiness! Your story and journey are an inspiration.
