In this episode of Your Cup of Joy, I'm joined by the incredible Abby McKenzie: lactation consultant, doula, childbirth educator, and sleep specialist. Abby was one of my own supporters during my postpartum journey, and I couldn't be more thrilled to bring her wisdom to this space. Together, we dive into the messy, beautiful, and often misunderstood world of breastfeeding, from the unseen layers of postpartum support to the emotional load that comes with it all.Abby shares how her early work as a lactation consultant revealed the deep need for holistic care, that breastfeeding isn't just about latch and supply, but about mental health, sleep, support systems, and personal values. We talk about what no one tells you about extended feeding, how breast milk adapts to your baby's changing needs, and why listening to your intuition matters more than any online advice or cultural expectation. She also opens up about her own recent experience becoming a mom, and how it's transformed the way she supports other mothers through simplifying plans, embracing rest, and trusting that growth (in babies and in life) is never linear.This conversation is for every mama who's ever felt overwhelmed by conflicting advice, doubted her decisions, or just needed to be reminded that she is doing enough. Abby's grounded, compassionate insights and belief in mother-led care will leave you feeling empowered and affirmed in your journey.If this episode spoke to you, I'd be so grateful if you shared it with another mom or mama-to-be in your life. And remember: your intuition is powerful, your experience is valid, and you were never meant to do this alone. Keep filling your cup, and I'll see you back here soon.Connect with Abby:Website: https://www.babyglo.ca/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/babyglo.lactation/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/abby-mckenzie-966b64128/?originalSubdomain=caAriana's Links:Website Instagram: @‌ArianaJoyChristie @YourCupofJoyPodcastTikTok: @‌ArianaChristie

Lindsey is real, honest, beautifully present and not only deeply connected to her heart, but committed to the ongoing 'practice' of deep heart connection with her truth, her don't give a fuckness, and her spaciousness as she moves forward with what really matters - home, motherhood, openness to receiving pure creative impulse from spirit, deep connections and her spot on intuition. In this delicious conversation we discussed... How curiously, we both grew up being bullied which initially distanced ourselves from our heart, yet eventually cultivated deep presence with self and others How motherhood has awakened incredibly spot on intuition, knowing, fierce truth, humility and a confidence that only comes from surrendering to the present moment How there's sexiness in structure... date nights, sex nights, weekly check-ins, intimate conversations, even dance breaks like we experienced on the After the Show on Patreon (which unexpectedly brought me to happy tears watching the embodiment of her extraordinary truth!) How she's learning the art of sacred partnership and divine compromise to seek what's really important underneath the surface issue which more deeply nourishes her marriage How I believe she's on the cutting edge as a pioneer of the 5D, choosing presents, spaciousness, openness to the moment, being the vessel through which the Divine can drop in creative inspiration (and drop in another baby!)  How, What if motherhood could be enough? more than enough? absolutely perfect?  The age of Aquarius is about the Divine Feminine, about beingness, about our vibration. I felt more grounded and uplifted by being with this incredible woman :-) You'll be delighted by her delicious answers to my three questions over on After The Show on Patreon xox and watching us let loose to a song that truly represents the soul embodiment of this extraordinary young woman, hot mama and heart open soul XOX  ➡️ Go check out patreon.com/allanapratt for Exclusive content!

Renee is joined by activist, storyteller, and mom of two, Sarain Fox, for a vulnerable and uplifting conversation about the parts of motherhood we don't talk about enough—loneliness, identity shifts, and the magic of finding community. From postpartum during the pandemic to the unexpected grief of letting go of the mom you thought you'd be, Sarain shares how her reality as a new mom differed from the narrative she had in her head. They talk about how friendships change after kids, the importance of being that friend who reaches out, and why even a walk around the block with someone can be transformational. Sarain also opens up about her work with the Cybex Stroll Together initiative, the healing power of movement, and how something as simple as a stroller helped her reclaim a sense of self. Whether you're in the thick of new motherhood or reflecting back on those early years, this episode is a warm reminder that you're not alone—and it's okay to ask for more support, more connection, and more space to just be.

In this episode, I sit down with Tessa, a former Panic to Peace student, to talk about her journey through anxiety, panic disorder, and agoraphobia—and how she's finding true, lasting healing by slowing down and reconnecting with herself.For years, Tessa managed her anxiety by controlling everything around her. But when those strategies began to break down, she realized she needed a new path—one that involved nervous system regulation, somatic work, and learning to trust her body.We talk about:The dangers of “doing all the healing work” at onceWhat it means to stop digging and start healing in the present momentHow slowing down actually helps you build confidence and self-trustExpanding your bubble and taking brave steps—even when it's scaryWhy healing is never linear, and how that's completely okayTessa's story is incredibly inspiring and deeply relatable. If you've ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to actually move forward with your healing, this episode will give you so much hope and guidance!WANNA SAY GOODBYE TO ANXIETY, PANIC DISORDER, & AGORAPHOBIA FOR GOOD?

Ashley Zapata, LFMT and Shari discuss the absolute importance of putting your mental health first and what that looks like. They explore the realities of pospartum depression and anxiety and how to take realistic steps to overcome it. This episode focuses on how to re-discover who you are after having children and the power that is 100% yours to re-difine who you are. 

Shari and her mentor of 10 years, Delilah Chapman (mother of three, entrepreneur and business owner, Black Belt in Tae Kwon Do, and world traveler), have a deep conversation about real life lessons after having children, how motherhood changes you in the best ways, and creating the motherhood YOU want through the power of your perspective and intention.

A conversation between Shari and her sister, Dr. Shannon Pugh, that explores her challenging road to Doctorate while giving birth to and raising two children, reclaiming her life and power post-divorce, and the big part that faith has played in overcoming adversity, removing limits, and creating a fulfilling life and motherhood she is proud of.  

In this episode, Shari discusses her own difficult journey to pregnancy and motherhood for the first time publicly, which included years of infertility after being diagnosed with fibroids. Here, she talks about why this, what she's learned since becoming a mom, and demystifying stigmas around what motherhood looks like, set the the foundation for this podcast.

Michelle Downard - Birth Parent Peer Support / Birth Mother:"My name is Michelle Downard, and I am a birth mother who has been working for American Adoptions since 2003. My primary focus is peer support for all the birth mothers that we work with who want to know that they are not alone and that someone else understands how they feel. I placed my son for adoption in February of 1998. He is the love of my life, and I know that it is because of adoption and his wonderful adoptive family that he has had all of the opportunities and experiences that he has been blessed with. I also handle the pictures and letters here at the agency and love being able to talk with both adoptive couples and birth mothers about their experience and contribute in making it a positive experience for everyone."E-MAIL: michelle.d@americanadoptions.comInterviewing Michelle was a ton of fun, and very heartwarming. Everyday, she helps people in deep need. Very inspiring.  

In this emotional episode of The Miracle Files, sisters Emily Jones and Holly Worthington share the incredible true story of Sadie Harris, a young mother who faced a 100% fatal bacterial infection, Clostridium sordellii, just days after giving birth. What started as a joyful new chapter with her newborn son, James, quickly turned into a desperate fight for survival. With her father, an ER doctor, cracking the medical mystery and a series of divine interventions, this uplifting tale of faith, family, and God's grace will leave you in tears and full of hope. And while you might think you know how this ends, you don't! You will be amazed!
