Pregnancy is a time of excitement, transformation, and, let’s be real, feeling completely on the outside of your own body. In this season, I’m bringing you the raw, unfiltered truth about growing a human—from preconception prep to postpartum recovery. Whether it’s navigating doctor’s appointments or dealing with all the wild changes no one warns you about, we’re talking about it. Because even in one of life’s most universal experiences, it’s easy to feel like an outsider—but you’re not alone. See you out there.
