What if community wasn’t something parents had to find after a baby arrives, but something they could build before?

This week on The Connection Code, we’re joined by Georgia Kastaris, founder of Expecting Together, a prenatal social club designed to bring expecting parents together through education, connection, and shared experience.

Inspired by the UK’s National Childbirth Trust, Georgia is reimagining how parents prepare for one of life’s biggest transitions—by forming small, intentionally matched cohorts of expecting parents based on due date and neighborhood, and pairing expert-led prenatal education with built-in community.

In this conversation, we explore:

• Why loneliness in early parenthood is so common—and so solvable
• How shared timing and life stage fast-track meaningful connection
• What Georgia learned from becoming a parent abroad
• The power of “organized friendship” for adults
• Fundraising, entrepreneurship, and building a mission-driven company while pregnant
• Why connection should be part of healthcare, not an afterthought

This episode is for anyone thinking about friendship, systems of care, and how we show up for each other in moments of major life change.
