Introducing the New Podcast:

If you know Stefanie Henderlin, you know she has a way of making you feel instantly at home, like you’ve just sat down with a warm cup of tea and a trusted friend. That same spirit is at the core of her new podcast, Midwives & MilkTea.
This isn’t just another health podcast. It’s a space where the worlds of midwifery, herbalism, and lactation support come together, rooted in both tradition and evidence-based care. Stefanie’s vision is simple but powerful: to bring meaningful, unhurried conversations about women’s health back into the light, where they belong.
Her own path has been anything but linear—from doula training to midwifery school, herbalist studies, and lactation mentorship, Stefanie has gathered wisdom from many corners of the birth and wellness world. Along the way, she’s seen firsthand how our bodies carry their own deep knowledge and how much healing happens when we reconnect with that truth.
What Listeners Can Expect
Each episode blends Stefanie’s warmth and curiosity with her dedication to learning and sharing. Topics include:
- Debunking midwifery and herbalism: what it really looks like, beyond the myths.
- Herbal support for women’s health: fertility, pregnancy, postpartum, and more.
- Lactation & infant feeding: care that is compassionate, personalized, and informed by evidence.
- Tradition meeting science: because our ancestral wisdom and western research can work hand in hand.
Midwives & MilkTea is more than information—it’s an invitation. Whether you’re a parent, a birth worker, or simply curious about holistic women’s health, Stefanie’s hope is that each conversation feels like sitting across from someone who sees you, hears you, and wants to share the journey.
So, pour yourself a cup of tulsi, chamomile, or your own favourite brew, and come settle in.
This is just the beginning…
