56) Revisiting Postpartum Doula - Harriet - shares her insights

It’s holiday time! Eva and Maren are taking a few weeks off, but we’re revisiting some of our most popular episodes—the ones that have truly resonated with our listeners. Whether downloaded, shared, or commented on by listeners who felt seen or found the words to express their feelings, these episodes are making a lasting impact.

Parenthood is a tough journey for everyone, and we all experience our own unique struggles. Sometimes you’re in the thick of it with us, sometimes ahead of us, or perhaps you’re catching up to listen when you need that extra support or insight.

In this episode, we’re thrilled to welcome Harriet, a well-known postpartum doula, who joins Eva and Maren to share her years of experience in supporting new parents through the often-overwhelming transition into parenthood. Harriet gives invaluable insights into what first-time parents can expect as they prepare for the arrival of their little one.

At the time of recording, Harriet was in her third trimester with her first child, which adds a special layer to her advice—she’s been there, and now she’s living through it herself. Don’t miss her three-month postpartum check-in in Episode 50 (released in May), where we catch up on how things have changed since.

This episode is an essential listen for anyone preparing for parenthood—first-time parents or anyone needing a little extra insight into the postpartum journey.
