Why Asking For Help Feels So Hard + Pregnancy Announcement After Cancer

I’m pregnant again after cancer… and thinking about postpartum in a very different way.In this episode, I share the real fears and questions that are coming up as I prepare for another postpartum season — and why this time, I’m looking at support and the “village” differently.We talk about why it’s so hard to actually ask for help, even when people genuinely care. The difference between “I’m here if you need me” and the kind of support postpartum actually requires. And how the way our lives are structured — isolated homes, full schedules, invisible boundaries — makes it incredibly hard to both give and receive real support.We also get into the moments no one sees… the late nights, early mornings, and overwhelming in-between spaces where help is needed most, but rarely asked for.This is a conversation about over functioning, carrying too much, and what it might look like to slowly shift the way we show up for each other.If you’ve ever felt supported… but still alone in it, this will hit close.
