Summary

Today we sit down with our beloved sister, Courtney, to chat about the importance of maintaining a sense of self and identity while raising kids. Courtney shares her fertility journey and the wisdom she wishes she had had during her years struggling to get pregnant and then white-knuckling through her three pregnancies. We chat the importance of putting energy into your relationship with your partner while raising young children and how clear priorities can help set a foundation of peace in the home. Next week we will be back with part two of our conversation on all things bouncing back after giving birth, fitness, and nutrition.
