Important Conversations

The power of your voice. Becoming an active participant in society

Today for Important Conversations I want to bring awareness to pre and postnatal care for BIPOC women. The statistics are depressing. These women are 3-4x more likely to die during childbirth vs. white women. As a woman who has had the privilege to birth at home, I can attest to how disempowering the standardized Western birth process can be as it is structured now. I was able to work outside the system because I have privilege and access to midwives and doulas. The below organizations are looking to bring power, safety and security back to the BIPOC birth community.

I am here to spread awareness on different causes and charities that are making a difference in our community. If you know of something you'd like us to bring awareness to I'd love to hear from you. Just shoot me a text at 310-349-3741.

How to store your fresh greens to keep them longer

I did a video on tiktok about this and apparently it's a novel idea. Your greens are living. If you give them water when you get them home they perk up similarly to a plant. I treat them like a house plant but just in my fridge. I change their water often and it will honestly give you an extra week on your produce which is so worth it.
