The Sugar Free Podcast is a place where Millenial women gather to exchange real-life advice through raw, honest, unfiltered (sugar free) conversations. Because let’s face it, adulting is way harder than it looks on television and we could all use a little help figuring this thing out. Each episode, show host, Sydnee Mack, explores a variety of topics that are important to Millennial women from careers, to dating, starting families (or not) , financial security and mental health. Each topic is covered through interviews with dynamic guests who are experts in their fields by way of education, scholarship, work experience and/or lived experience. Each guest offers actionable advice, tools, resources and strategies to help Millenial women create the lives that they want verses the lives that were crafted for us by our parents, haters and society. Show host, Sydnee Mack, Esq., is a Millennial lawyer, professor, entrepreneur, best-selling author and woman who uses her knowledge and experience to lead entertaining conversations with vulnerability, curiosity, compassion and humor (lots of it).

For some women the road to pregnancy includes a wild night of passion, but for so many more the road to pregnancy is a process. A process filled with fears, doubts, shame, financial burden, medical intervention, support and hope.
About 10 percent of women (6.1 million) in the US ages 15-44 have difficulty getting pregnant or staying pregnant, according to the CDC. Today’s episode is for the 6.1 million women who have had and the millions of women who will experience difficulty with conceiving and birthing a child. Myself and today’s guest, Shalmeka Sweet, are part of the 6.1 million women. This episode is for us.
Shalmeka is a Counseling Faculty member at South Mountain Community College teaching an array of psychology and counseling classes along with providing counseling services to students. She is also co-host of The Beyond Conception podcast, in which, she her husband share their 9-year infertility journey with a dose of faith, hope, love, and laughter to help couples conceptualize everything that is beyond their conception.
