Beyond the Birth Plan: The YOU Plan

Join Jennifer Mickel for Beyond the Birth Plan: The YOU Plan, a workshop that prepares you practically for the profound transformation of becoming a parent.

Most pre-birth preparation focuses entirely on caring for the baby. But caring for yourself as you transition to this new stage deserves just as much preparation. A new baby will take up considerable emotional and logistical space in your already full life. Something will have to give. This workshop helps you prepare for that.

We’ll discuss the varying demands of the first 12 months, map your support network before you need it, and we’ll create a plan for making conscious choices about what gives—so you can transition to parenthood while preserving your friendships, your hobbies, and time just for you.

Jennifer Mickel, founder of The Third Shift, brings deep insight into the emotional and logistical realities of early parenthood and helps families prepare with clarity and intention. Because preparing for your baby matters — and preparing for yourself matters just as much.

Partners are warmly welcomed to attend.
