My commitment to #maternalhealth , and especially @preeclampsia and #pretermbirth prevention, isn’t just professional, it’s personal too. Maybe if I had had low dose aspirin, my story would be different… @cmqcc

LOVE how she is leaning into her skills to speak truth to and lift the spirits of those in her home city We all have a role to play #lafires
As a proud Angeleno, the fires that have devastated our county have been heart-breaking. I am so fortunate that while my own home in the Palisades was at risk and had some damage from the fires, I am safe. So many others cannot say the same, and my heart goes out to all of those who have been affected and are rebuilding their lives from ash. I wrote this poem, “Smoldering Dawn”, to process my own fears and prayers for us as we come together as a community to heal from this trauma. While we mourn what we have lost, we also give thanks to the first responders, firefighters and civilians who have fought so tirelessly to combat these fires and ensure the safety of so many. To honor them, I’m releasing this poem as a fundraiser for the California Fire Foundation, which is offering support and aid to firefighters families, as well as those who have been impacted by the fires. 💛 Give what you can, help who you can, stay safe, and this too we shall conquer.

Eighty percent of U.S. maternal deaths are preventable. With access to comprehensive health care restricted after Dobbs, outcomes will likely worsen and inequities will likely grow. Learn how lives have been put at stake on #MaternalHealthAwarenessDay:
