In this week's episode, Rachel invites you into an intimate conversation she has with her husband and father of two, Sean Daggett. He shares a bit about what he learned from entering fatherhood; specifically what he wishes he had known in order to be better prepared for the vulnerable period of postpartum.
This is a good one to share with a new or expecting dad!
HUGE gratitude to ALL the men out there who are being change-makers and cycle breakers!!
