In this episode, Katie interviews Kendra Atkins-Boyce, a doula, mom, and overall amazing lady. Both Katie and Kendra went through some intense medical stuff that put them out of commission while trying to parent very young children, and they discuss how difficult it can be to ask for help.

Topics include:

What the heck just happened?

Feelings. We have them. Especially when it comes to ASKING for help when we need it.

Relationships when we’re especially vulnerable.

Community, Meal train, Checklist, Doulas, and how to manage all the things (or let someone else take care of them for a change)

Parenting is Awesome: Katie’s husband is the COOLEST.
