    • Spoiler Alert: Nobody Gives A Crap Which IBCLC Pathway You Take
      Dec 10 2025

      Struggling to choose an IBCLC pathway? Stop overthinking it. In this episode, lactation consultant Leslie Owens tackles the biggest misconception holding aspiring IBCLCs back: worrying about which pathway is "legitimate."

      Here's the truth: Families don't care which pathway you took—they care about compassionate, knowledgeable support. With breastfeeding parents waiting weeks for appointments and giving up before help arrives, we need MORE lactation consultants by any means necessary.

      In this episode, you'll discover:

      • Why all three IBCLC pathways are equally valid
      • What families actually ask about (spoiler: never your pathway)
      • How Pathway 1 is more accessible than you think
      • The hidden costs of 95-hour lactation consultant training programs
      • Why your background and personality matter more than your route to IBCLC certification

      Whether you're considering Pathway 1, 2, or 3 to become a lactation consultant, this candid conversation will help you stop second-guessing and start moving forward. The lactation field needs diverse voices, cultures, and experiences—including yours.

    • Don't Sleep on Pathway 1 to become an IBCLC (and NO you don't have to be a nurse)
      Dec 3 2025

      In this episode, we break down why Pathway 1 is a legitimate, respected route to becoming an IBCLC and why online lactation education is the future. Learn how healthcare fields everywhere use online programs, why real learning happens in the field, and why no one cares where or how you trained once you’re certified. If you’ve questioned your path, this episode gives you clarity, confidence, and permission to move forward.
