Why We’re Pausing (and What’s Next): 2025 Podcast News & Updates

I have some news: Dam Parenting isn't going anywhere! In this quick 2025 update, Eva takes a warm, honest, and direct moment to share why the podcast is continuing and what the future looks like for our international community in the Netherlands. While we are taking a brief, intentional pause to coordinate fresh guest voices and new episodes, the mission remains the same: creating a space for real conversations about the "beautiful chaos" of pregnancy, postpartum, and modern parenthood abroad.

This platform is built with you in mind, and your input is what keeps it relevant. Whether you have a specific topic you’re struggling with, a guest recommendation, or a personal story you feel needs to be heard, we want to hear from you. Check the links in our bio or DM us on Instagram to help shape our upcoming season. Thank you for being part of this village—we’re just getting started.
