Bringing a baby into the world changes everything—including your relationship.

In this episode, I had the honor of talking with Brittany Keating, a licensed marriage and family therapist, about the real-life challenges couples face in the postpartum season—and the simple, practical ways to strengthen your relationship through it all.

Whether you're feeling disconnected from your partner or just trying to survive the sleepless nights together, this conversation will remind you: you're not alone, and there's a way forward.

In this episode, we cover:

  • Why relationships feel harder after having a baby
  • How to start tricky conversations without it turning into a fight
  • Simple tools to help moms feel seen, heard, and supported
  • How to ask for what you need without guilt
  • Ways to reconnect with your partner during the postpartum season
