from The Weird Years · host Lydia Vornweg

The DJ, the Control Freak & the Incoming Baby... in like 2 weeks, wtf.

We get into:🍼 What having a baby has brought up for us before even arriving 🍼 The different ways we thought about the decision to start a family 🍼 Fear, identity changes, and the pressure to stay “the same”🍼 Who we hope we can be as parents This episode is for anyone who's thinking about kids, unsure if they want them, or just fascinated by the moment before a life changing moment. 🖤 Follow Chris: ⁠@chrisavantgarde⁠🎙️ Follow us: ⁠@theweirdyearspodcast⁠🚀 New episodes every Tuesday — hit subscribe to navigate the weirdness together.
