The Minnesota mom Googling at 2 a.m.
THIS PODCAST IS FOR
If you're pregnant, postpartum, or navigating those blurry first months of motherhood in Minnesota, this podcast was made for you. Made for Minnesota Moms is where Twin Cities experts and real local moms share honest, practical conversations about pregnancy, birth, postpartum recovery, mental health, feeding, and newborn life. No generic advice from a parenting blog written in another state. No Pinterest perfection. Just the kind of trusted, local support you actually need, whether you're in Minneapolis, St. Paul, Edina, or anywhere across the Twin Cities. New episodes drop regularly, so you always have somewhere to turn when the internet rabbit hole at 2 a.m. starts to feel like too much.
As a Minnesota family and newborn photographer, I get to witness so many of the most tender moments in a family’s life. And the more I talk to moms, the more I realize how much of the postpartum season gets glossed over. We spend months preparing for baby. The gear, the nursery, the birth plan. […]
As a Minneapolis newborn and family photographer, I get to spend a lot of time with families in the middle of real life. The messy, beautiful, exhausting, wonderful parts. And one thing I hear from moms constantly is that they want places to go with their kids that don’t feel like a survival mission. Places […]

As a Minnesota family and newborn photographer, I get to spend a lot of time around moms in some of the most tender seasons of life. And the more conversations I have, the more I realize how much of motherhood happens behind the scenes. The 2 a.m. Google searches. The exhaustion you can’t quite shake. […]
As a Minnesota family and newborn photographer, I spend a lot of time with moms. Sometimes the best conversations happen during a newborn session while we’re waiting for baby to settle. Sometimes they happen during a family session while the kids are running wild around us. And sometimes those conversations turn into something deeper. About […]
If you’d asked me a few years ago what a lactation consultant does, I probably would have said, “They help you breastfeed?” Not wrong. But barely scratching the surface. I had three babies with three totally different feeding experiences. Each time, I wished I’d known more, and had more support in those early days when […]
As a Minnesota family photographer, I spend a lot of time talking with moms. Sometimes it happens during a newborn session while we’re waiting for baby to settle. Sometimes it happens during a family session while the kids are running circles around us. And sometimes those conversations turn into deeper ones about motherhood, health, and […]
I'm a Minneapolis newborn and family photographer, a mom of three, and someone who has spent the last decade sitting on living room floors with brand new moms across the Twin Cities.
That's the real reason this podcast exists.
After hundreds of newborn sessions in homes from Edina to St. Paul, I realized I wasn't just there to take photos. Moms were asking me which lactation consultant to call, which pediatric chiropractor was worth the drive, whether the thing they were feeling at six weeks postpartum was normal or something to bring up at their next appointment. They were exhausted and smart and surrounded by information, but still not finding what they actually needed.
So I started picking up the phone and bringing those people to you.
Made for Minnesota Moms is a real conversation with a Twin Cities expert or local mom I'd send my own sister to. Doulas, naturopaths, chiropractors, lactation specialists, therapists, and the women who've already lived the thing you're Googling tonight. No fearmongering. No matching-pajama mom culture. Just trusted, local support for the moms who deserve it.
If you're pregnant, postpartum, or knee-deep in newborn life somewhere in Minnesota, you're in the right place.
