The postpartum period isn’t just about the mother—it’s a critical window where partner support can make or break recovery. In this episode, I’m joined by Eric Stein to talk about the essential role men play after birth, why so many partners want to help but don’t know how, and how others underestimate their responsibility altogether. We unpack how intentional nourishment, rest, and a strong support system can radically change the postpartum experience. This conversation is a must-listen for any family wanting a calmer, more supported fourth trimester.

This week, I’m joined by Lily Nichols to break down what gestational diabetes really means and why so many mamas feel overwhelmed by the diagnosis. We talk through the difference between true pregnancy-triggered blood sugar changes and underlying insulin resistance, and why individualized nutrition matters more than generic restrictive advice. Lily also shares simple food strategies, lifestyle tools, and the role of CGMs to help you understand your patterns and feel more confident supporting stable blood sugar during pregnancy.

This week, we’re kicking off the first step in the Order of Healing: mindset—but not the fake-happy, toxic positivity kind. We’re digging into the neuroscience behind the placebo effect, growth mindset, and how your thoughts can influence everything from pain perception to breastfeeding outcomes. I’ll walk you through real-life examples for TTC, pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and weight loss so you can see how this plays out in your everyday motherhood. If you want lasting healing, this is the step you can’t skip.

This week, I’m joined by Luna Aziz, founder of Legendairy Milk, to talk about her journey from struggling with low supply to creating some of the most trusted lactation supplements on the market. We break down why galactagogues work differently for every mama, how to know if a supplement is actually helping, and why the basics of breastfeeding always come first. Luna also shares the behind-the-scenes story of building an all-woman company, expanding into women’s health products, and the boundary that keeps her well-nourished.

Melanoma survivor Leah Koskinen joins me to break down what every family needs to know about sun safety.

Many parents have a wake-up call about food once their baby starts solids — but picky eating and busy schedules can quickly pull us back toward packaged convenience foods. In this episode, I’m joined by Julia Putzeys to talk about why ultra-processed foods are so hard to avoid, how they impact kids’ health and behavior, and what’s really hiding on ingredient labels. We also dive into how simple tools like the Trash Panda app can help families prioritize real, whole foods without stress or perfectionism. Click HERE to access today's shownotes.

Healing isn’t random — your body follows a very specific order. In this episode, I’m introducing the Order of Healing, a framework I learned months ago that completely changed how I look at symptoms, root causes, and true recovery in pregnancy and postpartum. We’ll break down what the order of healing is, why the body heals in this sequence, and how understanding it helps you stop chasing symptoms and start supporting real, lasting healing. This episode also kicks off a new podcast series, where we’ll walk through each of the seven steps in depth.

In this episode, Brooke sits down with Jess Lindgren to explore what it means to be a deeply involved, child-free adult in a family-centered world. Jess shares how embracing the role of a “professional auntie” and neighborhood safe adult has created meaningful connection, community, and joy without becoming a parent. Together, they discuss boundaries, respect, and how extended family and friends can support parents without overstepping. This conversation is a refreshing reminder that strong villages are built intentionally, and there’s more than one way to nurture the next generation. Click HERE to access today’s shownotes.

In this week’s episode, Brooke sits down with Dr. Laurel Mellin to explore the neuroscience behind Emotional Brain Training (EBT) and how emotional connection, implicit memory, and stress wiring shape behavior. Dr. Mellin explains how brief, structured EBT tools access the emotional brain to deactivate stress circuits, strengthen joy circuits, and create lasting change through experience rather than cognition. They break down the five brain states, how each tool works, and why high-stress moments are powerful opportunities to rewire old patterns. You’ll also learn how parents can use EBT within their own lives to naturally support their children’s emotional health and begin shifting their family toward being “wired for joy.”

If you’ve been trying everything to boost your milk supply and still feel stuck, this episode is going to connect the dots in a way most breastfeeding advice never does. I’m breaking down the seven most common — and most overlooked — reasons moms unintentionally sabotage their supply, even when they’re doing their best. These are the patterns I see in nearly every client, and they’re almost never talked about in traditional lactation support. By the end, you’ll understand what your body actually needs to produce milk consistently and what to shift today for better results.
