Anxiousness – it’s last chapter.
You can’t go more than 2 feet out your door without encountering someone with anxiety today. It’s literally everywhere and a part of society like gum to the bottom of a shoe. As moms, it’s one of those things that hits hard after a newborn, in the postpartum phase. You think of way too…

1 year with our Harrison Cooper
