In this heartfelt episode, I’m joined by the wonderful Caitlin Wilder, a doula who brings so much honesty and compassion to the postpartum space. We’re talking all about what it really looks like after baby arrives—normalizing the hard stuff, letting go of unrealistic expectations, and shifting the focus from baby gear to emotional and mental prep. Caitlin shares such beautiful insights on building a strong postpartum support team and tuning into what you truly need for self-care. This conversation is full of love, truth, and gentle reminders that you’re not alone in this journey.Show Notes <a href='https://www.myessentialbirth.com/blog/ditching-unrealistic-expectations-postpartum-advice-from-doula-caitlin-wilder'>HERE</a>!How to connect with Caitlin:<ul><li><a href='https://www.wilderbeginnings.com/'>Website</a></li><li><a href='https://www.instagram.com/wilderbeginnings/'>Instagram</a></li><li><a href='https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/on-we-go/id1757897799'>Podcast</a></li></ul>Links Mentioned:<ul><li><a href='https://www.myessentialbirth.com/getstarted'>My Essential Birth Course</a></li><li><a href='https://www.myessentialbirth.com/postpartum'>My Essential Birth Postpartum Course</a></li><li><a href='https://www.instagram.com/myessentialbirth/'>My Essential Birth Instagram</a></li></ul>GET IN TOUCH! 🤩 Reach out at any time to <a href='mailto:hello@myessentialbirth.com'>hello@myessentialbirth.com</a>.
