This week's episode is a rebroadcast because my husband Falcon and I are taking a much needed trip togther with just the two of us. And in the spirit of he and I taking some time together, I chose an episode that you and your partner can listen to together! I interview David Arrell, author of Welcome to Fathrhood: The Modern Man's Guide to Pregnancy, Childirth, and Fatherhood. Grab your partner so you both can take a listen and soak up all the goodness in this episode. I know you are going to enjoy it and find it really helpful!

 

In this Episode, You’ll Learn About:

-How to be a supportive and attentive teammate through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum

-Why it’s important to look at parenthood as “teamwork,” as opposed to “women’s work”

-How to handle people who challenge a more progressive approach to fatherhood / being a stay at home dad

-What inspired David to write his book

-How to use code words to ask for or offer support during pregnancy

-What kinds of obstacles are being created by covid

-Why hiring a doula can be helpful for both partners during birth
