    087 - Solo Parenting with Lindsay Smith

    This week, my fellow fantasy football lover joins me to discuss the Solo Parenting journey! A topic that does not get enough recognition or discussion, I'm grateful to Lindsay for sharing her intellectual and emotional labor during this chat. Lindsay shares her road to deciding to have a child solo, how she's navigated questions and boundaries with others, and how things are going now Lil Miss has been earthside for 7 months.

    086 - Kaitlin Johnstone of Kind Cotton

    086 - Kaitlin Johnstone of Kind Cotton

    What is Kindness?

    This week, Kaitlin Johnstone of Kind Cotton joins me to explore the many and evolving definitions of kindness, how inclusion can lead to a more compassionate and authentic world, and how both of us had trouble keeping our mouths shut in elementary school.

    Kaitlin Johnstone is the co-founder of a company called Kind Cotton. Kind Cotton is a clothing company dedicated to redefining kindness and putting books in the hands of kids. Their inclusive clothing helps to inspire others to rethink kindness as more than simple pleasantries, but rather take a deeper look into kindness being rooted in justice and grounded in action. With every purchase made, a book is directly given to a child through the Kind Cotton Reading Program. To date, Kaitlin and her husband Kevin have donated close to 145,000 books to children and teachers across the country.

    Welcome, Kaitlin, to The Perinatal Podcast, and welcome, listener, back to the show!
