Lagniappe is a word that entered English from Louisiana French. I grew up in a Cajun family and I've always loved this word! It means something given or obtained gratuitously or by way of good measure, a little extra something, thrown in for free. Here you'll find some of the radio shows I have hosted on birth and family related topics. Lagniappe! Enjoy!

THE ADDICTION SERIES
In 2016, 63,632 Americans died from drug overdose.
That’s 174 people a day and it
doesn’t include people who do not die from an overdose,
but still are lost to their addiction.
Addiction is not a respecter of academic achievement or socioeconomic status or nice neighborhoods or gender or
race or how much a family loves a person suffering from substance abuse.
It is killing real people, beloved people, and it threatens others who are doing
the hard work to save themselves and their loved ones and others
so bound by the stigma of the disease that they are too paralyzed to seek help.
Whole Mother wishes to inspire discussion of this important issue and we are proud to present a year-long series on addiction. The series is dedicated to three young people who were lost and to their mothers.
Each show remembers with love Garrett, Sarah and Sean, may you rest in peace,
and Kim, Pam and Lori, may you find peace and comfort as we remember your children.
Join us on every third Sunday of the month for The Addiction Series.
