The U.S.  has the highest rate of maternal deaths and complications among developed nations, but it doesn’t have to be this way. We sit down with Melissa Hanna, founder and CEO of Mahmee, a groundbreaking maternal healthcare company uniting nurses, doulas, OBs, lactation consultants, mental health providers, nutritionists, and more into one coordinated circle of care.

Melissa shares the personal spark—co-founding Mahmee with her mother, a longtime nurse and lactation consultant—that set her on a mission to change maternal health. We dive into the overlooked root causes behind poor maternal outcomes and why too many moms feel dismissed in the system.

Whether you’re pregnant, planning to be, or want to support people who are pregnant, this conversation is packed with insights, advocacy tips, and one bold idea for how we can rewire the entire maternal health system.
