Postpartum depression, invisible string theory & creating new holiday traditions

Welcome back to another episode of Just Alex! Harrison finally went back to the dentist and they rolled out the red carpet (see: https://www.tiktok.com/@justalexpod/video/7409333328458911007). Then, we dive into some holiday debates, like whether it’s too early to decorate for Christmas before Thanksgiving, and share our thoughts on creating new holiday traditions. We also discuss the foods we could eat for six months straight (like tater drinking her milk), plus answer your questions about life as parents, dating an influencer, and the relationship shifts we’ve experienced since having a baby.

We wrap things up with a discussion on postpartum depression—what it feels like, how to support a partner through it, and available resources. 

As always, thank you for listening! ❤️
