Congrats! Love the advice, definitely wish I had worked on my core before my first kid was born. I ended up mastering a deep crouch, straight down, while wearing a baby on my chest, to be able to pick things up.

This is a move I am learning and only slowly beginning to master. Also thanks for reading!

Also, I hope you have at least considered hosting a new podcast about parenting called "How to Make a Better Human." 😂

dear chris,

this is a delightful dispatch, as always!

here are some of my favorite lines from it:

"You already have such a lovely relationship. You two are so supportive and caring. Lean into that!"

"One thing I did in the early third trimester that was incredibly helpful for me personally is visit a friend and his 3 month old baby."

"how can I stockpile sleep?"

"It’s certainly the first time I’ve ever been on a lineup with Kesha, RuPaul, and Ray Kurzweil before."

CONGRATS ON DOING A MAIN STAGE TED TALK! ALL THE TALKING YOU'VE DONE IN THE PAST SEVERAL DECADES HAS BEEN A WARMUP FOR THIS! EXCITED TO HEAR IT! YOU'RE GREAT!

love,

myq
