Brick By Brick
Welcome to Brick By Brick — a real, honest space for new parents navigating the messy, beautiful, and sometimes really lonely early days of life with a newborn.
If you’ve ever felt like you're supposed to “just know” how to do this: the feeding schedules, the sleep routines, the healing, the mental load, you’re not alone.
Here, we talk about what actually happens after the baby arrives: the physical and emotional recovery, the middle-of-the-night Google spirals, and the quiet moments no one really prepares you for.
Hosted by a fellow parent who's been through it, this podcast brings you grounded guidance, supportive stories, and practical tips: from hiring a doula, to staying connected as a couple, to safe ways to move your body and protect your peace.
No fluff. No pressure. Just the kind of support every parent deserves.

The Shock of Twins: Discovering Twin Parenthood and Surviving the Early Days | Amy Li
I talk with Amy Li about the emotional rollercoaster of discovering she was having twins: from the shock and fear of a twin pregnancy to the overwhelming reality of life in the NICU. She opens up about how she learned to balance gratitude and anxiety in a season that tested everything.
We dive into what it really means to transition into parenthood when there are two babies waiting at home. Amy talks about sleepless nights, the challenges of recovery, and the emotional weight of not knowing what comes next.
Together, we reflect on the importance of communication, community, and allowing others to step in. Her story is a powerful reminder that parenthood is not meant to be done alone, especially when it comes two at a time.
