Hey Reader, I want to share something you can send to your partner if you’re expecting a baby or already in the thick of new parenthood. Mike is hosting a free live workshop for dads called: What She Needs (That Nobody Taught You) It’s for expecting, new (or seasoned) dads who want to support their partner, connect with their baby, and feel more steady in the middle of a season that can feel like a lot. And honestly? Most dads are trying. They want to help. They want to show up. They want to be a good partner and father. But a lot of them were never taught what support actually looks like in pregnancy, postpartum, and early parenthood. And as a wife and mother, it's not your job to walk him through. You don't have the capacity or patience for that and that is okay. This workshop gives dads practical, no-shame tools for understanding what their partner needs, why emotional steadiness matters so much, and how to bring more calm into the home without feeling like they have to be perfect. In under an hour, they’ll learn:
This is not therapy. It’s not a lecture. And it’s not about blaming dads. It’s a practical space for men who care and want to learn how to support their family better. You can send him the link here:What She Needs That Nobody Taught You | Free Workshop for Dads | Postpartum Together

Circles. Postpartum Together🫶 I don't see a way to make this world a better place without centering the importance of mother. ↓ There is a lot of conversation right now about rebuilding the village. About mothers needing more support. About care-centered communities. About female wisdom, leadership, connection, and what it could look like for mothers to stop carrying so much alone. And I love those conversations. But I also keep coming back to one question: What is the first real step? Not...
Postpartum Together🫶 I keep thinking about how unnatural modern motherhood can feel. ↓ Not because mothers today are doing it wrong. But because so many moms are doing something deeply communal inside lives that are set up for isolation. For most of human history, motherhood happened with people nearby. A baby was passed from arm to arm. A toddler was corrected by someone who wasn’t already touched out. A meal showed up without a full explanation of why you needed it. A mom could say, “I...
