Thank you so much for listening, in this episode we discuss setting expectations with your partner when you have a newborn. And I had the pleasure of speaking with Damon and KaToya Sumner about this topic. They describe themselves as, “a couple who’ve been married for fourteen years who desire to laugh and share our experiences with others. Their aim is to empower marrieds to enjoy marriage one convo at a time!”

In today’s episode we are discussed:
