Meet Penelope McCown

Penelope McCown can be considered a “spark” while engaging in conversations centered around non-traditional family planning. Mix that with her love of chic design, together the two topics can ignite some interesting conversations. Penelope is not only known for opening up inspiring dialogue surrounding IVF treatment and assistance in the Black community. She has worked hard and earned the title of entrepreneur by establishing a line of luxury baby and toddler products that celebrates motherhood : CoCoa Baby Love.
