No Hood Like Muvahood Large Zip-Pouch (Purple)

These days, breakfast is typically in the form of a plant-based protein shake. Occasionally, I’ll forego my shake for a cuppa coffee b/c, PHEW Chile, some mornings demanded it! 😩 But then, I’m starving an hour later. So, recently, I decided to SHAKE things up a little (HA! Did you catch that? 😅🤪) and add in my coffee over ice, with a touch of creamer. So good! Here are the deets: 👉🏽 Get a 40oz cup. (I’m lovin’ my @shopsimplemodern Slim!) 👉🏽 Fill almost to the tippy top w/ice. 👉🏽 Add creamer as desired. (I use non-dairy creamer. See comments for my faves.) 👉🏽 Add 11oz protein shake. (Obsessed w/ @drinkevolve Café Mocha 🤤) 👉🏽 Add 8-10oz coffee. 👉🏽 Stir and enjoy! Let me know if you try this, whether to a tee or a variation! 💜 Note: Nothing’s sponsored. Just can't keep this cuppa goodness to myself! 🫶🏽 • • • #morningcoffee #momhacks #breakfastideas #simplemodernslim #simplemodern #homeschoolfuel #mamafuel #jesusandcoffee #evolveprotein #evolveproteinshake #plantbaseddrinks #plantbasedrecipes #motherhood #parentinghacks #lifehack #keurigcoffee #keurig

So excited to go back to Capital Hill next week, but LITERALLY on the Hill this time! I'll be meeting with members of the Senate and House of Reps to advocate for moms, Black & Brown moms, and babies with Moms Congress!!! ☺️ Praying important bills like the MOMNIBUS are passed into law! 🙏🏽💜

May is Preeclampsia Awareness Month. As I strive to bring awareness to preeclampsia by educating other families, supporting survivors, collaborating with thought leaders, participating in research, raising funds for research, and raising my voice to highlight the significant disparities in preeclampsia occurrence within Black women…. I ALSO want to shine a light on POSTPARTUM PREECLAMPSIA—the Silent Killer. I’m so grateful to have survived postpartum pre-e and live to make a difference to change the narrative of Black and Brown moms.

What a day, what a day! I was invited by Johns Hopkins University @johnshopkinsu and Black Women’s Health Imperative @blkwomenshealth to speak and collaborate with some amazing folks at their event in D.C. for #blackmaternalhealthweek. As we put our collective minds, experiences, and expertise together to engage in discussions, you know ya girl had to shout out ALL the amazing Philly/SJ orgs who are out here doing the dang thang for Black mamas and doulas! And I learned so much from everyone! It was also a delight to connect with many folks in the flesh again or for first time, off our devices, while making new connections, too! Amazing Rockstars like @chanel_porchia @andweshallreign @charnisebridgette @mamaglow @birthingplacebx @nqeservices and so many others! The future of Maternal/Perinatal Health is much brighter with all of them in it! ✨ I left encouraged and supported in new community to continue my advocacy work and support of moms in the Greater Philly area and beyond. And we danced y’all! We had a ball! 💃🏽 Special thanks to @mommasvoices and @preeclampsia.foundation! 🫶🏽 #preeclampsia survivor #preeclampsiaawareness #preeclampsia #postpartumpreeclampsia #shareyourstory #womensupportingwomen #womenreproductivehealth #womenempowerment #blackmaternalhealth #publichealthadvocate #newjerseymom #phillymom #blackmomsmatter #doulapartnerships #bmhw24 #bmhwcafe24 #njdoulas #phillydoulas #themamaconnect

@preeclampsia.foundation Starlita Kilpatrick is a Take 10 Ambassador who shares her experience with #postpartumpreeclampsia Starlita writes, “Being a mom of color, an Afro-Filipina, I quickly learned of the disproportionate rates of Black and Brown moms losing their lives during and after pregnancy and birth. Many of us are unaware of the harms of preeclampsia, especially postpartum preeclampsia, and I am passionate about supporting, empowering, and mentoring other mothers with similar experiences. I believe all mothers should receive proper and adequate information and perinatal care regardless of race, ethnicity, or zip code.” Starlita is one of our Take 10 Patient Ambassadors who advises our Take 10 campaign along with other wonderful patient, family, and healthcare provider advocates. She is also a member of the Preeclampsia Foundation’s patient advisory council.

It’s Black Maternal Health Week! I had the opportunity to kick things off with a road trip to Brooklyn to attend Mama Glow’s Community Mixer event and represent @preeclampsia.foundation as a Patient Advisory Council member and Take 10 Focus Group Ambassador. I went with the amazing @trashaun , who is also knee-deep in preeclampsia advocacy for Black mamas in the State of New Jersey. (Things instantly went from “road trip” to “adventure,” and we had such a fun time!) Special thanks to @glowmaven and the @mamaglow team for the invite and for curating such an inviting, soft, and safe space to discuss all things Black Maternal Health and encourage community connections! #bmhw24 #blackmaternalhealthweek
