In this episode, BeHerVillage founder, Kaitlin McGreyes, recounts her early motherhood experiences. From Kaitlin:
I’m rewinding to a moment etched into my memory: just three days postpartum, sitting in my nursery, tears streaming down my face. Despite having every baby product imaginable, I was struggling—clueless about breastfeeding, unsure how to simply shower, and terrified I wasn’t doing motherhood “right.”
This personal story sets the stage for why I created BeHerVillage. As a new mom and a doula, I realized it wasn’t more things we needed, but more support. We deserve real human help, education, and reassurance during those vulnerable newborn days. In this episode, I unpack the emotions of that pivotal moment, explore how the lack of tangible support in postpartum care inspired me, and share how BeHerVillage aims to fill that gap.
Tune in for an authentic conversation that reminds us all: you’re not failing if it feels hard—you’re human. And there’s a better way to get the help you need.
