Supporting Ski Moms: How Mamava's Lactation Pods are Making Mountains More Family-Friendly

In this episode the Ski Moms sit down with Sascha Mayer, co-founder of Mamava to discuss how their innovative lactation pods are making ski resorts more accessible for breastfeeding mothers. 

Sascha shares her journey from snowboarding enthusiast to entrepreneur, explaining how her experience with Burton Snowboards inspired Mamava's distinctive pod design. The conversation covers the practical features of Mamava pods, their presence at ski resorts like Stowe and Bridger Bowl, and the broader implications for family support in the ski industry. 

Sascha emphasizes the importance of customer advocacy in driving positive change and envisions a future where ski resorts comprehensively support families, from convenient parking to childcare to lactation spaces. The episode provides valuable insights for both ski resorts aiming to become more inclusive and families seeking better accommodations.
