Emily Gorrie, now a stay at home mom, half expected her life to return to ‘normal’ after her daughter was born. She interviews women in all different stages of business creation and motherhood as well as shares solo episodes that touch on the questions and curiosities at the center of our newfound priorities. How do we as new moms regain our power, our identities as we navigate a society that has certain expectations of us? While we may not have the answer, stick around and you may just find you are not alone in the search.

Democratizing Baby Feeding and Breastfeeding with SimpliFed founder, Andrea Ippolito

July 03, 2023 • Emily Gorrie • Episode 34

Did you know that your insurance has to cover baby feeding support? It doesn’t matter if you decide to breastfeed, formula feed, exclusively pump, or do a mix – under the Affordable Care Act, your health insurance is required to cover the cost of support. This was news to me! So I am thrilled to spread the word by having Andrea Ippolito, founder of SimpliFed on the show today.

SimpliFed democratizes access to baby feeding and breastfeeding services, through a virtual model, 100% covered by insurance. In our conversation you’ll hear Andrea’s story of how she started this business alongside the birth of her first child, how she’s taken the business full time, and all of the options that are available to you. Be sure to share this episode with all of the soon-to-be and new moms in your life!
