About this listen

In this powerful and eye-opening episode of "Digging Deep with Dr. Christie K.", we sit down with Thana Hickman, the visionary founder of Viola’s House, a maternity home providing critical housing, resources, and life-changing support for young mothers in crisis.

Thana brings truth, compassion, and urgency to a conversation many overlook:
the realities of Black maternal health, systemic disparities, and the emotional and spiritual needs of mothers navigating pregnancy under pressure.

Together, we dig deep into:
✨ The challenges young mothers face that most people never see
✨ The staggering disparities in Black maternal health outcomes
✨ Why safe housing, emotional support, and community are life-saving
✨ The spiritual and mental impact of motherhood without support
✨ The vital role of boundaries and self-care for mothers and caregivers
✨ How Viola’s House is rewriting the narrative for mothers and babies

Thana’s work is not just nonprofit leadership — it is advocacy, compassion, and generational change in action.

This episode is for:
💛 mothers and daughters
💛 community leaders
💛 healthcare providers
💛 faith-based organizations
💛 anyone who believes in protecting the next generation

It will challenge your perspective…
It will deepen your compassion…
And it will inspire you to take action.

🎧 Tune in and be part of the movement:
Black maternal health matters.
Support matters.
Mothers matter.
Life begins here.
