I get tons of interview requests from people, reporters, students, etc who want to know more about my work with low income women of color. And that is an important part of the work I do. But no one asks me about is the rest of clientele. My private clients are from all walks of life and awesome. And because the black maternal mortality doesn’t disappear when you adjust for socioeconomics, we still need to focus here too. And then, pls understand this is not a black only issue. America overall is the most dangerous country to give birth in of all the “developed” nations.

For I opened up in about waiting to share my pregnancy until I was 8 months along because I was high-risk. Not an easy decision, but it was what I needed to have peace. We live in a country where Black women are 2-3x more likely to die from pregnancy related causes— and of course even after we give birth, our lives and the lives of our children aren’t safe. While Instagram can give the impression that pregnancy is all celebration, it’s can be one of the hardest journeys a person can face. I’ve been recovering from a c-section and protecting my energy in this crazy news cycle to be present w/ our son— a 4 pound, 10 ounce little one who was delivered earlier than expected (thankfully healthy! 🙌🏾)— but I had to write this essay for any parent-to-be who feels alone or has a more complicated pregnancy, and especially Black mamas who are told time and again that we have the odds against us. You can do this! 🙏🏾 Thank you to my entire tribe that got me through this journey ( and are who I mention in the essay but it’s a VERY long list of people who showed up) I love y’all!
🙏🏾🖤 Please share this essay with a woman you love— Link in Bio 🔗
