This episode of Steadfast Women in Ministry, Inc.’s W.I.S.E. Fellowship centers on an empowering and deeply necessary conversation about Black maternal health and self‑advocacy in the delivery room. The discussion is held in honor of Dr. Janell Green Smith—a brilliant scholar, midwife, and advocate whose life’s work illuminated the urgent need for safer, more equitable birthing experiences for Black mothers. Her tragic passing due to childbirth complications underscores the disparities that persist and the collective responsibility to confront them. To guide this vital dialogue, we are joined by Dr. Ashanda Saint Jean, MD, who brings her expertise, compassion, and commitment to maternal well‑being. She offers practical insight into navigating the healthcare system, advocating for oneself, and protecting the health and dignity of Black mothers throughout pregnancy and childbirth. This episode is more than a conversation—it is a call to reclaim power, amplify voices, and build safer, more informed birthing experiences for Black women and families.
