On OMUGWO: Postpartum Care in the African Diaspora, Pt. 1 (w/ Dr. Temi Aregbesola-Okere)

<p>In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Temi Aregbesola-Okere. Her passion for women’s empowerment, public health education and promotion, particularly as it relates to healthcare disparities in our communities led to her creating the Omugwo Box, establishing the Ireti Foundation, and the 'Live Your Best Life Momma' online course. In Part 1 of this episode, we discuss why our voices and concerns aren’t heard in medical spaces, the significance of postpartum care in the African sense, and the importance of speaking up and sharing our struggles with one another in order to learn and grow. Thank you for listening!&nbsp;</p> <p>Stay tuned for Part 2 of this episode with Dr. Temi.
