In this solo episode, I deep dive into the concept of building and maintaining a village - that crucial support system we all need, especially in motherhood. I share my personal experiences with my own village, from family and friends to hiring help, and offer practical advice on how to cultivate these relationships. I explore the challenges of friendship after having kids, setting boundaries with grandparents, and navigating different parenting styles within your circle. I emphasize the importance of showing up for others, giving grace, and accepting that everyone's busy looks different.
