The Relationship Reframe After Baby - With Dr. Tracy Dalgleish

In this episode, we have Dr. Tracy Dalgleish as a guest: a clinical psychologist and couples therapist with nearly two decades of experience, and the author of I Didn't Sign Up For This. Tracy brings both deep clinical expertise and a refreshingly honest, evidence-based approach to one of the most under-discussed transitions in modern parenthood — what actually happens to your relationship after baby arrives. And this conversation is exactly the kind of grounded, practical, emotionally intelligent guidance that every new and expecting parent deserves to hear before the newborn stage hits. Whether you're currently pregnant, deep in the trenches of the first year, or quietly wondering how you and your partner got so disconnected so fast — this episode is for you. From the Gottman Institute's 67% statistic, to the mental load, resentment, identity shift, interdependence, Fair Play, postpartum intimacy, the touched out nervous system, birth trauma, conflict repair, and the three golden rules for thriving couples — Tracy and Olivia cover everything that gets felt but rarely spoken about in early parenthood.

Your Body Knows How To Birth — You Just Have To Prepare

In this episode, we have Anne Margolis as a guest: a certified nurse midwife (CNM) and holistic practitioner with 30+ years of experience, and the creator of the Love Your Birth online course.

Whether you're planning a home birth, a hospital birth, hoping for natural labor, or open to an epidural — this episode is for you. From the shocking gap between US maternity outcomes and the rest of the developed world, to spinning babies, the resting phase of labor, coached vs instinctual pushing, fear work, doulas, and the gentle C-section — Anne and Annabella cover everything the system rarely takes the time to explain.

Baby Sleep: What Actually Works

Certified sleep coach Lauren Weber joins The Tiny Big Joys to challenge everything you've been told about baby sleep — schedules, wake windows, self-soothing, sleep training.
