Starting your baby on solids is one of the most confusing and daunting tasks for new parents — What foods should you start with? Which is better, purées or baby-led weaning? And for the love of organic pumpkin, how MUCH food should you give them?!

Joining us with all the answers is Luka McCabe — the creative force behind Boob to Food.

Tune in to hear her epic advice around introducing allergens, the BEST ‘first foods’ for maximum nourishment, how to tell if your bubba is ready for solids, the supplements she recommends for ALL babies (whether they’re plant based or omnivores), how to create beautiful routines and rituals around meal times (and why this is so important for kids), genius advice to know how much food your little one needs, and why it’s *never* too early to start building positive nutritional habits.

459: Introducing Your Baby To Solids, The Best Supplements For Infants, & More | Luka McCabe

Reproductive Psychiatry is an emergent specialty within medicine that focuses on women's mental health. Lucy Hutner, MD, an internationally recognized expert in women's mental health, gave a lecture centered around postpartum depression and anxiety that was titled "Skills to Support Women’s Well-being: Effectively Discussing and Assessing Mood Without Judgment" as part of the GW Resiliency & Well-being Center's Women’s Well-being Lecture Series. 

Dr. Hutner is one of a small group of psychiatrists with extensive expertise in reproductive psychiatry, which focuses on the mental health needs of women and families before, during, and after pregnancy. She is the lead editor of the American Psychiatric Association's "Textbook of Women’s Reproductive Mental Health." She has also authored/co-authored over twenty peer-reviewed articles and chapters focusing on reproductive psychiatry and medical education. 

In 2018, Dr. Hutner was invited to be one of the speakers in the inaugural TEDxWesleyan speaker series. In this talk, she discusses the evolution of women's reproductive mental health as a field within medicine. She illustrates her personal and professional experiences as a physician and psychiatrist focused on the well-being of women throughout preconception, pregnancy, and childbirth.

This new lecture series is organized by the center and supported by the Rosemary Bowes, PhD, Women's Mental Health Fund.

A Reproductive Psychiatrist on Postpartum Depression & Anxiety

277 miles is a long way. Our guest this week is a mother in Georgia who just ran that distance...solo, in 4 1/2 days!

(4:56) Single mom and running store employee Saushia Hathaway, who's never done a marathon before, made her 2nd attempt to Run Across Georgia, and did it just a few weeks ago. She talks about why she did it...how she trained, mostly on the treadmill since busy with kids...how she prepared for her nutrition...lessons learned from a rough experience the 1st time she did Run Across GA, with her "feet destroyed"...and what it was like seeing her kids and lots of friends at the finish line.

She also gives us a (12:04) day-by-day breakdown of the running across GA experience, like how many miles per day...sleeping in a jeep...walking...her crew...and fighting pain or injury, including s stress fracture she got the 3rd day she didn't know about. (18:26) Anything extreme like that is a big mental challenge, so Saushia explained how she kept fighting, how others helped her, and what she hopes others can get from her accomplishment. She says anyone can do this, if they think they can and train for it,

(24:24) Her main job is mom to 2 kids, ages 6 & 7. Saushia opens up about the joys and challenges of motherhood, while working 2 jobs. 

(29:13) And how did she get into running? She was a HS sprinter where she grew up in California and (31:11) now helps customers learn more about running and proper gear, especially the right shoes, but also...sports bras, chafing prevention, toe socks, nutrition like gels, water backpacks, and more, (36:30) The inspirational young woman also talks about her surprisingly quick jump into long distance running, having a strong mind for tough challenges, and what the running community means to her especially as a single mom.

(40:29) With her daily struggles, Saushia also discusses how church - which her kids love - helps get her through, after stopping to go to church with her husband, a marriage that's now ended. Now, her kids pray and teach her. 

(45:45) Check out my race recaps, from the latest "Mainly" marathon I finished last week in Rhode Island to a local 5K where I dressed up in a wig and more to be the composer Beethoven as a pacer. (51:05) Our "parting gift" is inspiration from an actress/mom, then my closing Prayer.

Do you feel at a loss sometimes when it comes to parenting your strong willed child? While it can be a difficult journey, it's incredibly rewarding when you raise your child to walk with God. Join Carol, Tricia and Kelly as they talk about raising their kids to know Jesus.

How To Raise Your Strong Willed Kid

What can our pelvic bowl teach us about our health, our creativity, and ourselves? What does it mean to ‘mother from your centre’? And how can women reclaim the innate wisdom of their bodies?

To delve into these deep, insightful questions I’m joined by author, TEDx speaker and Women’s Health Physical Therapist, Tami Lynn Kent.

Tune in to hear why Tami’s book is one of my favourite books EVER, what it means to ‘mother from your centre’, why so many women are carrying tension and trauma inside their pelvic bowls, how this unresolved trauma can be secretly causing harm (to their wellbeing, mental health, relationships, fertility and more), sacred ways to create your own version of motherhood, powerful self-care strategies for mamas (even if you feel like you’ve got no time), amazing tips for holistic pelvic health, and how to release shame and guilt that’s being held in your body.

460: Healing Trauma, The Power Of Your Womb, How To Mother From Your Centre & More | Tami Lynn Kent

This podcast episode is an unpacking and discussion of the recent Netflix production The Lost Daughter, based on the novel of the same name by the pseudonymous Italian novelist Elena Ferrante and directed by Maggie Gyllenhaal. The film explores the textured, complex, nuanced, challenging parts of the mothering experience and positioning of motherhood culturally. The themes explored shine a light on the shadow side of being a mother, the boundaries of maternal ‘transgressions’, and the experience of maternal ambivalence. 

To reflect on the film, I’m joined in conversation by Julianne Boutaleb, a passionate and highly experienced perinatal psychologist who has worked for over 15 years in the NHS and private practice with parents and parents-to-be and their babies. Julianne and I discuss the importance of this film in exploring the complex and raw portrayal of motherhood on our screens, something we so rarely see examined in such a demanding and articulate way. 

We look at mothering and the experience of maternal violence, peacemaking and repair, and explore the gap between the idealised version of motherhood versus what is real. We ask and explore questions such as - what do we do with the loss of the imagined future we had before having our children? What are ‘maternal transgressions’ of the ‘bad mother’ and who defines these? Who decides which are acceptable and which ones aren't? What stories and rules have we internalised as mothers, and where have these come from? What standards are we holding ourselves to as mothers? 

We look at the possibility of self-erasure and self-surveillance, and explore why it could be helpful to start with the basic premise that we are never going to always meet our child's emotional needs, and why perhaps that's not our job. 

This is a powerful episode full of interesting discussion on the cultural, social and deeply personal experience of mothering and the sacrifice, tension and fierce love involved. Acknowledging that this film can raise challenging, fraught, and sometimes painful responses in viewers, if you find aspects of this podcast conversation raises difficult feelings for you, please reach out for support.

Who is the 'bad mother'? Unpacking The Lost Daughter with Julianne Boutaleb

Does it matter which way a baby comes out of the birth canal, or which way it's facing during a C-section? For people in labor, not necessarily, as many different head positions result in healthy, safe deliveries, although labor times are often longer for people who don't deliver "the normal way." It does matter to your obstetrician, however, because the head position tells them how the labor is progressing and will affect any surgical delivery plans they may have. Dr. Fox tells us all about birth positions, face-up deliveries, and what's important about the angle and orientation of babies as they're being born.

Welcome to GW Integrative Medicine, a podcast about using an integrative approach to disease prevention and health promotion. We look forward to sharing the latest news and research on Integrative Medicine – where the best practices of conventional medicine and evidence-based complementary medicine meet. This podcast is brought to you by the Office of Integrative Medicine and Health, the George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences,  in collaboration with the university's Integrative Medicine Programs and the IMPACT Initiative.

The role of being a Mother offers us the potential for incredible expansion, growth, and power, while also being one of – if not THE – most challenging, undervalued, and taken for granted roles in the world. Motherhood Studies Sociologist, researcher, and single Mother, Dr Sophie Brock hosts The Good Enough Mother (TGEM) podcast with an aim to change how Motherhood is culturally defined and individually experienced. TGEM draws its name from a theorist and pediatrician Winnicott, who highlighted the ways ‘good enough’ parenting is actually what is best for our children – not perfectionism. The podcast centres the Mother as the starting point for conversations with experts and change-makers who are passionate about seeing social, cultural, and institutional change to better support Mothers and therefore our families, and communities.

On your journeys of fitness and faith, we are helping you stay motivated to be stronger physically and spiritually on the new RUN THE RACE podcast. Host Jason Dennis - veteran WTVM news anchor, marathon runner and missionary, will talk to experts and people with inspiring stories as we dig deeper into the mind, body and soul.
