    • S1, EP. 3 Preparing / Starting a Family as a First Responder Couple

      Okay this episode is JUICY yall! The original plan of this episode was to chat about building community as a LEOW but the Q&A lead us to a slightly different topic, which we think most of you will really resonate with. This is a conversation that NEEDS talked about more and I am so glad someone asked us this!


      In this episode, we chat about preparing & starting a family as a first responder couple as well as the months after baby. Navigating postpartum hormones, the roommate stage & our husband's schedules/work aftermath is not for the faint of heart. We hope you find some solidarity and laughs during this convo, like we did while having it!
