Silent Pressure: Understanding the Basics of Preeclampsia

  • Summary

  • Preeclampsia is a silent threat—and for Black women, it’s an all-too-common and often overlooked one. In this opening episode of the Rooted Will, Rising Advocate Podcast Preeclampsia Awareness Month series, host Mahogany Feaster breaks down what preeclampsia is, how it presents, and why Black mothers are disproportionately impacted. Learn the symptoms, risk factors, and systemic reasons why Black women are 60% more likely to develop preeclampsia and up to 5 times more likely to die from it. This episode shines a light on what’s too often ignored—and provides the foundation for awareness, advocacy, and action. Because being informed isn’t just empowerment—it’s protection. 🎧 Tune in, then visit MahoganySpeaksToYou.com for more tools to recognize the signs and raise your voice.
