So proud of Vonda and blessed to have been her Doula! A truly phenomenal woman and an incredible mother who’s been a blessing and an inspiration to many including myself!
A8: Hear from one of our Parent Ambassadors, Vonda, how her doula partnered with her NFP nurse and stepped in when her birth didn’t go as planned. #BMHW24
The United States is in a maternal health crisis. Meanwhile, Republicans would rather waste time holding a hearing seeking to cut-off pregnancy care to a population more likely to be uninsured.
@RepJasmine calls out their priorities:
I was 17 years old when I applied to Harvard. My guidance counselor pulled me aside the day a recruiter came to my city high school for an info session. She was a Black woman and my mind was blown. I didn’t even know Black people went there. It had just been a “reach” school up until then but now, after hearing her presentation, I really wanted to get in…
I am in LOVE with this picture of us at the White House!! An astronaut, aquanaut, two astrophysicists and a molecular biologist right here in this photo 🥰 these are the faces of science.
Black girls with focus issues…please eat when you need to and pee when you need to. Food and Urination are not rewards for finishing tasks, crazy ass girl.

I graduated undergrad depressed with a 2.2 GPA.
I shouldn’t be a doctor
So it’s the I’m officially a SUMMA CUM LAUDE MEDICAL SCHOOL GRADUATE FOR MEEEEEE!
Went to see a patient & the RN told me: “Heads up. Our patient is she/her.”
Patient at one point asked me a question, I replied “Yes ma’am.” She hadn’t quite looked at me until I said that. After she was fully engaged.
Here’s how long it took me to adjust: zero seconds.
The other day I attended a birth with a first year resident. No one counted to 10 or yelled “PUSH!” We sat with our hands in our laps and waited for the baby to emerge. She didn’t tear. I wonder what birth would be like if more doctors got low-risk birth training from midwives.
Unpopular Opinion: Asking the interviewer a question at the end is a great way to make a good impression during an interview✨
Confused about what to ask?
