The Partner’s Purpose During Pregnancy

It seems the resources for partners of pregnant parents are lacking. Matthew and Shanon Morris join us on this episode to discuss their experience of becoming pregnant, navigating their new roles, and preparing for the birth of their daughter. Their book “The Partner’s Purpose During Pregnancy” is an incredible resource for expecting parents.

What started as scraping and painting single-family rental homes in central Texas turned into a 6-figure retirement at the age of 34.  Matthew now resides in Chicago with his wife (editor and illustrator) and infant daughter. Together they enjoy pole fitness, studying Chinese, and are preparing for their second book "The Partner's Purpose Postpartum."  Shanon Morris, a Navy veteran, military spouse and founder of “Hop On and Hold On”, is passionate about building resilient relationships at home and in the workplace. With a background in research, digital marketing and strategic communications, Shanon leverages her expertise to drive impactful initiatives for global clients ranging from SMBs to large tech companies and government organizations.
