  • Big Podcast Update!! 😍🎙️
    The MLN Podcast is on pause..but not for long!!  In this candid episode, I share a short personal update on the challenges I've faced in recent months that led to re-airing old podcast episodes. I open up about the real-life struggles that have drained my energy and delayed new content creation.  But now, I'm thrilled to announce that I'm back with renewed vigor and exciting plans!! I've been working hard on building a new content studio with a fake hospital room to deliver more visual and engaging educational content.  Mark your calendars for Spring 2025, when the new format of the Mommy Labor Nurse Podcast will debut. I can't wait to share this fresh, fun, and insightful content with all of you!!  And...I'd love you forever if you'd subscribe to my YouTube channel to experience the episodes in their full glory. Let's embark on this exciting journey together!!
