About Motherhood Intended
Her Village Podcast This is the space where real women have real conversations — the ones we don’t always say out loud, but all feel in some way. Hosted by Jacqueline Baird, this podcast goes beyond surface-level talk and into the stories, struggles, and moments that shape us — in motherhood, relationships, identity, and everything in between. Through a mix of personal reflections and honest conversations with other women, each episode is designed to leave you feeling seen, understood, and a little less alone… while also giving you new perspective, insight, and the kind of validation you didn’t know you needed. Because you’re not the only one thinking it. And you don’t have to figure it out on your own. Welcome to Her Village.

Published 23 Oct 2026 · Transcript excerpt
[…] First, let's talk about the planners, because we all know at least one. Maybe you are one. The friend who starts the group chat. The person who remembers everyone's birthday. The one who researches restaurants, picks dates, books the reservations, and then sends the reminder because somehow everyone forgot what they agreed to. And to be clear, I don't think being that person is necessarily a bad thing. I actually love planning things. I love finding new places to go. I love coming up with experiences. And I obviously love bringing people together. I mean, I literally started a women's community built around those things. […]
