Spill the Baby Tea with Helen: The Lessons Weve Learned In Our First Year as Parents

Published: Nov. 23, 2022, 1 a.m.

b'This year has been jam-packed with new life experiences. As our baby reaches the ripe age of 1 (very soon!), I wanted to bring my husband, Philip Wang, on to the pod to talk about what it\\u2019s been like to take on this new identity of a parent. If we could turn back time, what is a piece of advice we would\\u2019ve told ourselves one year ago today? What is something we didn\\u2019t know or expect to happen in the first year as new parents that surprised us? Becoming a parent is a major life transition, and all transitions, no matter how eagerly anticipated, are accompanied by stress, fear, and lots of unknowns. We\\u2019re ecstatic that we survived the first year. And grateful that we can impart what we\\u2019ve learned to everyone that tunes in.\\n\\nHere are a few shortcuts if you\\u2019d like to hop to a topic that interests you!\\n\\n[01:38] \\u2013 My Giggle and Drool of the Week\\n[09:09] \\u2013 What would we tell ourselves as new parents, one year ago today?\\n[28:49] \\u2013 Something we didn\\u2019t expect to happen in the first year as new parents, that did happen!\\n[44:12] \\u2013 Outro\\n\\xa0\\nAfter you\\u2019ve taken a listen, let me know in the comments of our IG post if you related to this episode in any way.
