modern day book for the modern day IBCLC."-- Stephanie Wagner, RN,

"I have been in private practice for 6 years and many of the topics
covered took me years to figure out on my own. Start to Strong will
give you a jump start and you'll skip all the frustrating trial and
error learning curves. The additional resources referenced at the
end of each chapter make this book invaluable."-- Leah Jolly, BA,
IBCLC, Bay Area Breastfeeding
"Annie's book packs in tons of info: income goals, legal questions,
social media, the often-feared HIPAA compliance, and more. Best of
all, she provides heaps of links and resources in each chapter.
It's worth every penny to establish a smart and successful
practice."-- Allyson Murphy, IBCLC, Laid Back Lactation
