We have to stop leaving the mother out of the equation. That is exactly what happens when we ask "When are you having a baby?" This simple question, often well intentioned, completely removes and ignores the birthing person. You never know where someone is on their fertility journey, their marital satisfaction, or emotional and physical recovery from birth trauma.

Today's episode provides an update on my physical and emotional recovery from my traumatic birth two years ago and an invitation into how I'm considering a second pregnancy. It's big, it's juicy, and I definitely start crying. I can't wait to hear how this resonates for you.
