Have you ever noticed how a fussy baby settles the moment you step outside and they start watching the trees? 🌲👶

That calm is not accidental. Newborn vision is wired for contrast, movement, and distance, and tree canopies offer exactly what their developing brains can actually see. Add in the way nature supports nervous system regulation for both of you, and suddenly that quiet moment makes a lot of sense 🌿

This is one of those simple tools that costs nothing, requires no prep, and works more often than you expect. On hard days, it is worth remembering.

December 13th is 36th birthday. And if you know me, you know how much I admire her storytelling, her lyrical brilliance, and the way she can give you chills with a key change. She’s objectively incredible.

When I think about the families I support and why I built the Beyond Birth Blueprint, it feels like the mission is just so big. We’re trying to shift the way people prepare for birth, and having a new baby, long before crisis hits.

And then it hit me… at 36, Taylor is officially advanced maternal age, which is exactly the group I support most.

So this week’s episode of the Be Well Baby Podcast is my little love letter to Taylor. Maybe she can help spread the word. 😍

The best way I know to honor someone who inspires me is by offering compassionate, clear guidance for anyone stepping into this brand-new era of life.

And it’s not just for Taylor. It’s for every powerhouse human who deserves support, clarity, and someone to help make pregnancy and postpartum feel more navigable.

If you need a steady voice to walk you through it, this episode is for you.

Love, Emily

In episode 7, Faith, our wonderful and incredibly knowledgeable IBCLC, joins me to talk all about fl**ge fitting. 🍼✨ You may have seen us share about our fl**ge fitting services and wondered, “What is that all about?” Well, this episode tells you everything you need to know.

We walk through why proper fittings matter, how they can make pumping more comfortable, and what to expect. 🤱 If you’ve never had a fl**ge fitting and you’re curious, we’d love to support you. 📞 Link in bio 😊

Episode 6 is live!! 🌿🎙️

You Can’t Win at Motherhood (So Stop Trying)

In this episode, I talk with Dr. Katie Kanda about why so many parents feel like they are failing. She shares how a postpartum autoimmune diagnosis reshaped her relationship with rest and identity, and we explore why parenting feels so hard and why community support matters. 💚

Dr. Katie Kanda is a holistic chiropractic physician with special emphasis on prenatal, postpartum, and pelvic care. She will work with your body, not against it, to gently support your natural ability to heal physically, mentally, and emotionally. Her passion is guiding a whole self approach to well-being and bridging the gaps between the science and art of healthcare.
