Welcome to This Is My Baby – the podcast where we celebrate the achievements that don’t come with a ring, a registry, or a tiny human. Because not all life milestones are weddings or babies…some of them are quitting a job, surviving a year, finishing the thing, or finally choosing yourself. Every episode, we give flowers to the wins that usually get a polite nod instead of a party.

So, if you’ve ever wanted to say “this is my baby” - this podcast is for you.
