Wow, Pat, thank you for mentioning this name!
I checked out this website: http://www.platypusmedia.com/node/111 and 
clicked on the link on the homepage, where it says 'Listen' (podcast).
There you find a beautiful interview (35 minutes) with Dia Michels.
Sigh... should probably be buying a book once more... TIME, girls, TIME IS 
WHAT I NEED! hahaha
The handouts you mentioned can also be found here, for those who didn't 
know...

Warmly,

Marianne Vanderveen IBCLC, Netherlands
