Around Queens: Why Maternal Care Is Failing—and What Charline Mitchell Building Instead - Ep 9.
In this episode, I sit down with Charline Mitchell, lactation consultant, doula, and founder of what could become Queens’ first birth center.
We talk about her journey from school counselor to maternal health advocate, the moment that pushed her to leave the system, and why she’s now building something entirely new for families in Queens.
And we get into what’s ahead—the barriers, the vision, and what it will take to create real change in maternal care.
