Yesterday was something really special ✨
Our first PT & IBCLC Integrated Care Symposium is officially done and I’m still processing how incredible it was to be in a room (and virtual space!) filled with professionals all coming together with the same goal: better supporting families in feeding their babies.
I’m so grateful to everyone who attended, asked questions, shared perspectives, and helped make these conversations happen. Huge thank you to Dr. Forrester for such an insightful presentation, and to Ashley & Ashley for being the absolute best co-hosts through this whole process. And of course, Lizzy & Shay for all of the behind-the-scenes organization that kept everything running.
To be honest, I was SO nervous going into this. We’ve never hosted anything like this before, balancing both in-person and virtual attendance felt intimidating, and tech challenges are truly my nightmare 😅 But seeing the collaboration, engagement, and passion in the room made every stressful moment worth it.
One of the biggest things I took away from yesterday is just how many professionals are eager to learn, collaborate, and think outside the box when it comes to infant feeding support. Physiotherapists have such a valuable role in this space, and I’m incredibly grateful to be able to advocate for that alongside such amazing colleagues.
This feels like just the beginning ✨ Hoping we can continue growing this in the future, expanding these conversations, and building even more integrated support for families.
My heart is very full today. 💜
