Hi friend!! HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Not only are we celebrating 2025...but we've reached an exciting podcast milestone. Today's episode is #100!! I can hardly believe it! Here's to fresh beginnings, new goals, and, of course, spilling more secret mom hacks to make this gig a tad easier.

Reflecting on the journey
Consistency is no small feat when it comes to podcasting, and any podcaster out there knows it. Whether you’re putting out episodes monthly, bi-weekly, weekly, or—Lord help you—daily, keeping that streak alive is like running a marathon. [Which I may know a thing or two about. 😉] Almost two years of non-stop weekly episodes, through thick and thin, have brought us to this moment.

And because today is such a substantial marker in my podcasting journey, I thought we’d take a delightful little trip down memory lane. So here we go—my top five episodes that have resonated most with you, our incredible listener.

📌 #5: Difficulty Breastfeeding - Nursing Tips for First-Time Moms
This episode hit close to home. Breastfeeding isn't always a natural second nature for new moms, and I faced my own battles getting started. This episode dives deep into those struggles and shares some of the tools and hacks that made my journey smoother. Tune-in HERE.

📌 #4: Spotting Signs of a Narcissistic Husband - Emotional Abuse is Real
One of several pod swap episodes with my dear friend Sarene Leeds, who hosts the "Emotional Abuse is Real" podcast. This episode, along with others where Sarene and I have collaborated, digs into some heavy but vital topics, including emotional abuse and neurodivergent parenting. Listen HERE.

📌 #3: The Case for Calmer Parenting - Effects of Angry Parents on Children
A standout episode where I share 10 calming affirmations and stress the impact our big emotions can have on our little ones. It’s a heartfelt conversation about striving to be the calming presence your child needs. Check it out HERE.

📌 #2: How to Turn a Breech Baby - Acupuncture, Moxibustion, Chiropractic, and More
I detailed the myriad tactics I employed to turn my breech baby head-down for a natural birth. From acupuncture to chiropractic techniques and more, this episode is a treasure trove of tips. Listen HERE.

📌 #1: Baby Registry Must-Haves - 10 New Mom Essentials
New mamas, this one’s for you! Episode 15 lays out those indispensable items that make those early days and months so much easier. Trust me, these are things I wish I’d known about sooner. Tune-in HERE.

Changes on the horizon
To ensure every new episode is jam-packed with the highest quality content as possible, I’m moving to a bi-weekly release schedule starting today. My next drop in your feed will be January 15th, followed by January 29th, and so forth. Quality over quantity, because you and your time are precious to me!

If you haven't yet, make sure to follow or subcribe wherever you get your podcasts so you don't miss any episodes.

Join the celebration!
Thank you for sticking with me through 100 episodes. Here's to the next 100 and beyond! I appreciate you and all the time you spend with me. Cheers to a beautiful 2025!

Sending hugs from our family to yours!
