Summary

Amy and Kat unpack a listener’s question about how to celebrate intentionally…without making others feel obligated. She’s planning her baby’s 1st birthday after a long fertility journey and wants to include people she loves, but with no pressure. They explore what it means to let others support us, release the notion that we’re a burden, and why allowing people to show up for us actually deepens connection.

Plus, Amy randomly shares how college didn’t go like she planned, but she didn’t give up on herself.
