S1, EP. 3 Preparing / Starting a Family as a First Responder Couple
Okay this episode is JUICY yall! The original plan of this episode was to chat about building community as a LEOW but the Q&A lead us to a slightly different topic, which we think most of you will really resonate with. This is a conversation that NEEDS talked about more and I am so glad someone asked us this!
In this episode, we chat about preparing & starting a family as a first responder couple as well as the months after baby. Navigating postpartum hormones, the roommate stage & our husband's schedules/work aftermath is not for the faint of heart. We hope you find some solidarity and laughs during this convo, like we did while having it!

Customer Reviews
From One First Responder Wife to Another
I have felt seen in this podcast. I am a wife to a first responder as well, and my husband and I are navigating being first time parents. This podcast has helped me recognize and validate my feelings that I have felt over the past 3-4 months. I really enjoy listening to both of these ladies.
Love this podcast!
As a LEOW and new mom, this podcast is amazing! I love the Christian base that these ladies bring to the podcast and the topics are perfect for all LEO signifiant others. Such an easy and fulfilling listen!
Makes me feel human
As a newly wed & new LEO wife, this podcast makes me feel like I’m sitting down with my more experienced life friends and just having them give me advice while validating the real and daily struggles of being a women/mom/leo. I’m so thankful for the honest and down to earth chatty sessions that make me smile and feel right at home here in this podcast.
