I personally took so much away from this course. From the course work to the live zoom sessions, each were filled with so much information that will help me in my lactation journey. The motivational interviewing was such an ideal section of this course. I feel other lactation consultants definitely need this in their lives. I benefited a lot and feel very prepared. Thank you again for such a wonderful experience.
