  • My Top 5 Breastfeeding Tips
    Jan 9 2026

    Breastfeeding is often described as natural, but that doesn't mean it's always easy. In this solo episode of Whispers of Milk and Motherhood, I'm sharing my top five breastfeeding tips to help parents feel more prepared, supported and confident, starting before baby even arrives. We talk about the power of prenatal breastfeeding education, why early support matters, letting go of rigid feeding schedules, honoring your comfort and embracing flexibility in your feeding journey.

    Whether you're pregnant, newly postpartum, or supporting someone who is, this episode offers gentle guidance, realistic expectations and compassionate reassurance that there is no one "right" way to feed your baby.

    Listen in and take what serves you.

  • The Pressure to Do it Right: When Motherhood Becomes a Performance
    Jan 8 2026

    Motherhood comes with an unspoken pressure to do it right, and to look like you're handling it all with grace.

    In this episode of Whispers of Milk and Motherhood, we explore what happens when motherhood quietly turns into a performance. From feeding choices and sleep schedules to postpartum bodies and emotional expectations, this conversation gently unpacks the weight of comparison, perfectionism and feeling watched... by others and by ourselves.

    Together, we name how cultural expectations, social media and "shoulds" can pull us away from our intuition, and we offer a compassionate reminder: you are not failing... you are mothering!

    This episode is an invitation to soften the rules, release the performance, and return to what actually matters: connection, presence and care... for your baby and for yourself.

    Settle in and listen.

  • When "You've Got This!" Hurts: Naming and Navigating Toxic Positivity in Postpartum
    Jan 8 2026

    In this heartfelt episode of Whispers of Milk and Motherhood, Suzanne sits down with Hannah Johnson to explore a rarely named but deeply felt part of the postpartum experience: toxic positivity.

    Together, they gently unpack how well-intended phrases like "stay positive," "be grateful," and "you've got this" can unintentionally dismiss the very real exhaustion, anxiety, grief and identity shifts that many new mothers experience after birth.

    Hannah shares her honest postpartum journey, including the emotional cost of hiding her true feelings, the pressure to perform gratitude and how postpartum anxiety and depression can hide behind a smile.

    In this episode, we talk about:

    - When encouragement stops feeling supportive

    - How toxic positivity impacts postpartum mental health

    - Postpartum anxiety and depression in new mothers

    - The emotional and identity shifts of matrescence

    - What authentic postpartum support actually looks and sounds like

    We also spotlight Hannah's meaningful work at No Filter Postpartum

    This episode is a reminder that you don't need to be more positive, you need to be more supported.
