Today...I'm my own guest, and I wanted to share a bit about my personal story and the inspiration behind my work. Starting out in emergency medicine in New York City, I eventually moved into family centered care. From personal experience and unanswered questions, I have always been driven by a deep discomfort with the lack of choice and context many people are given during pregnancy and birth. From podcasts, documentaries, and courses to founding a wellness practice and a growing media platform, I've designed offerings with the goal of helping people make informed, empowered choices.

Intense meltdowns are part of the parenthood experience. As toddlers test our limits, our nervous systems activate and we begin wondering if we're terrible parents. Child development and child behavior specialist Devon Kuntzman discusses how parents can better navigate and understand those moments, reframe their child's behavior, and work toward helping them build long term emotional resilience.

Growing with Garrett is an intimate short-form video series following Garrett Kusmierz’s real-time pregnancy journey as she prepares for a more empowered second birth and postpartum experience.
