Lisa and Maya discuss the overlap between food reactivity and tongue tie symptoms, emphasizing the importance of symptom tracking and individualized care for breastfeeding families.

In this episode, Lisa talks with Maya Bundesen-Magier, occupational therapist, mother of two, and founder of MapMyMilk, a digital tool created to help breastfeeding families track maternal diet and infant symptoms with more clarity.
