Description

Let’s Talk About Boobs - breastfeeding, pumping, bottle feeding, why my supply dipped, how I increased my supply, and how I see my boobs now. How does Philip see my boobs now?! Basically, everything related to my breastfeeding journey. This is the episode where we cover ALL of it. For any mommas out there who are on this seemingly endless, yet rewarding journey of nursing/pumping, know that I very much see you and I am here along the ride with you. And for all of you who are just curious and want to understand what the journey is like, we love to have you here too! Women are incredible, and our bodies are fascinating. Get a sense of what the women in your life have had to go through and find new appreciation for them by tuning in today <3

After you’ve taken a listen, let me know in the comments of our IG post what your breastfeeding journey was/has been like! Did you also experience a supply dip? If so, how did you increase your supply? Are you nursing a toddler? What’s that experience like? And if you’re a dad/supportive partner, what has your experience been like?
Thank you as always for allowing me to share my personal journey with you all. I have so much more to learn and would love to continue connecting and learning from all of you out there.

A podcast for the modern day Asian American woman hosted by Melody Cheng, Helen Wu, and Janet Wang. We started this podcast as an outlet for topics we are interested in, and for sharing stories we have as 20-30 something yr. old Asian American women working, dating, and living in Los Angeles. It's no secret that Asian women are lacking in almost all media outlets. As three women working in finance, tech, and production who balance careers, life aspirations, and eventful social lives (we have our fair share of 5am returns from the club), we hope our perspectives can help, inform, and entertain those girls (and guys) with similar backgrounds or an interest in our backgrounds. We like to think of this as our invitation for you to join our once private girl talk sessions! So grab a glass of wine and let's get this show started ;)
