What if I told you that so much of what you THINK you’ll do as a new mom totally changes once you’re actually in the messy, magical trenches of motherhood? 

In this episode, I’m getting personal about all the “hot takes” and behind-the-scenes decisions Eric and I made—sometimes against conventional wisdom—during my first 10 months with Blakely. We’re talking breastfeeding versus formula, real talk on night weaning and sleep training (including what I swore I’d NEVER do!), how we approach solids and screen time, and why changing your mind as a mom is basically a rule, not a failure.

If you’ve ever wondered, “Am I doing motherhood ‘right’?” or felt a pang of guilt comparing your journey to anyone else’s, you’ll walk away from this episode feeling validated, informed, and so much less alone. You’ll get clear insight into what worked for us, what absolutely didn’t, and tiny tweaks I’ll make next time—all shared openly so you can cherry-pick what fits your own family.

If you’re ready for a real, unfiltered take on the highs and lows of new motherhood, plus one thing no one warned me about (that completely rocked my world!) tap play now.
