Fix Your Relationship with Dr. Stephen and Erin Mitchell Aug 31, 2021

Show notes

In this episode Sarah talks with Erin and Steven Mitchell, founders of Create Your Couple Story.

They talked about how to communicate with your partner, especially about vulnerable things that can happen during the transition to parenthood.

Things like miscarriages, body image, changes in sex drive, and the role each partner will play during postpartum and beyond.

The real key isn't knowing that you need to communicate, but actually having the tough conversations, because they can be tough! I hope you enjoy this episode.
