Empowering mothers through breastfeeding...

Carole Issa
About this episode

When Nadiya was expecting her first child, she found herself surrounded by naysayers dissuading her from wanting to breastfeed her baby. Yet, she took on the challenge to prove them wrong. And so began her journey of becoming a breastfeeding professional to serve mothers, empower and inspire them to discover their strengths, and walk into motherhood with confidence.

Some of the key themes Carole covers with Nadiya Dragan El-Chiti:

-  1’34”: What is a breastfeeding professional

- 6'39": What drove her to become a breastfeeding professional

- 14'09": The biggest challenges she faced and how she overcame them

- 17'52": How she overcame the fear of public speaking

- 21'13": How she turns a wall into a door

- 38'42": How she deals with conflict

- 45'35": The people who had the biggest influence in her life

- 48'46": The meaning of the word ‘Leadership’ to her

- 52'36": Time management as a mum with 3 kids

And so much more than that…
