About The BeHerVillage Podcast

The BeHerVillage Podcast is where we talk about the real cost of having a baby and the support it takes to thrive. We’re not just talking about baby gear. We’re talking about maternity leave. Emotional labor. Identity shifts. Professional ambition. And the systems that either support or fail mothers during one of life’s most transformational seasons. Hosted by Kaitlin McGreyes, doula, mother, and founder of BeHerVillage, a gift registry for parents to get the funds they need for the support they deserve.
