Carson Meyer joins Decoded to expose the hidden truth about pregnancy, postpartum, and what most couples get disastrously wrong about childbirth. From boundary breakdowns to emotional disconnection, we break down why birth can make or break a relationship—and what it takes to prepare emotionally, physically, and spiritually.

Carson shares wisdom from her new book Growing Together, including:

The radical importance of postpartum boundaries (and how to enforce them)
Why most baby showers are a trap
How emotional trauma shows up in birth outcomes
Her hot take on “hands-off” midwifery and birth trauma cover-ups
And how we can baby-proof our relationships before the chaos begins

If you’re pregnant, planning to be, or healing from a past birth—this episode is essential. It’s raw, real, and radically practical.
