If this episode resonated with you, we would be so honored if you shared it and tagged us on Instagram, @expectingandempowered, so that we can see it and get your feedback! We’d also be so grateful if you would rate and review our podcast in your favorite podcast app, because that’s the best way for a newer podcast like ours to get more people to listen.
