TW for pregnancy loss and miscarrying. On this episode, I am joined by fellow Lafayette alumni Simmone Taitt, founder and CEO of Poppy Seed Health. Simmone shares the premise behind her company, why she founded it and the core of its business model. We discuss the differences between doulas and doctors, the importance of having a support system when pregnant and the scarce education around miscarriages. We discuss the lack of focus on mental health throughout pregnancy and privilege in medical care depending on the color of your skin.
Key talking points:
