Join us for the first interview of 2023 where we will be hearing the story of Jace's Journey Co-Founder, Tomeka James Isaac, who is opening up about her traumatic experience with prenatal care that led to her son's preventable death & her own life being dangerously close to being lost too. She has since become an advocate for maternal health, specifically working to address the racial disparities in maternal health outcomes. As black mothers are more likely to suffer a stillbirth & be at risk for maternal mortality, this is a critically important mission & we hope you will join us in demanding better care for ALL families.  

Please watch & share this episode! It's up to us to make sure we hold the health system accountable & make sure more babies & mothers make it home safely.
