Shawonda Johnson speaks of her motherhood journey. Her pregnancies were not easy. She learned how to pay attention to her body AND tell her providers what she needed even when she had to repeat herself or move on to another provider. As Shawonda speaks with Valda Ford, RN, they discuss some ways to know when you need help, how to ask for help and how to be an advocate for all mothers-to-be and birthing people. The message is clear - know your body, know yourself and know your strength. Educate yourself and get what you need. Educate others and lift up the community.
