Ziora's Quest:
Mommy's Milk Rocks!
The name Ziora is an Ibo name which means ‘show/teach the world.’
Ziora’s Quest: Mommy’s Milk Rocks!
is a first-of-its kind book that teaches school aged children fun facts about how amazing mommy’s milk is!
It is told from the point of view of a six-year-old, and is full of diverse representations of breastfeeding.
It is the perfect educational resource for children and adults alike.
Speaking Engagements
From keynote addresses to intimate conversations with stakeholders (or something in-between), I love to speak on topics around breastfeeding and its public health impacts as well as how it relates to social determinants of health. I also enjoy speaking to school-aged girls/adolescents as well as other women.
As a fun lover myself, my talks promise to be educational, engaging, empowering and entertaining!
