The Marriage Podcast Every New Parent Needs
Why Better Relationships After Baby Belongs in Your Ears
You love your partner, but let’s be real: things have changed.
You’ve had the baby. You’re doing the feedings, the laundry, the mental math of “who’s more tired,” and somewhere in the middle of it all… you’re wondering when your marriage started to feel like a business partnership.
Maybe you’re thinking:
“We never actually talk anymore unless it’s logistics.”
“Why does everything fall on me to plan and remember?”
“I miss us, but I’m also touched out and exhausted.”
“We don’t argue all the time, but it’s like we’re never on the same team.”
You’re not alone. And that’s exactly why Better Relationships After Baby exists.
What Is Better Relationships After Baby?
Better Relationships After Baby is a marriage podcast created specifically for couples navigating life after having kids. Hosted by Chelsea Skaggs—a certified life and relationship coach who’s also been in the postpartum trenches herself—this podcast offers real talk, expert guidance, and down-to-earth tools that actually work in real life.
The episodes are short enough to fit into your day but deep enough to make an impact. No fluff, no judgment, no pressure to “fix everything overnight”—just real conversations to help you feel seen, supported, and equipped.
When Do Moms Actually Listen to Podcasts?
Your time is not wide open. But that doesn’t mean you can’t pour into yourself and your relationship.
This podcast is designed for the pockets of your day that might otherwise feel a little empty or monotonous—when your hands are busy, but your mind is craving something real and helpful.
You might listen to Better Relationships After Baby:
While washing bottles or prepping dinner
During a stroller walk or contact nap
On your drive to daycare drop-off
As you hide in the bathroom for five minutes of quiet
While folding yet another load of laundry
Instead of scrolling or zoning out, you can use that time to fill your emotional cup and get back to your relationship with clarity and confidence.
Episodes That Hit Home
Each episode is built around something real—real challenges, real emotions, real moments of tension that couples face after baby. A few standouts include:
“Touched Out & Overwhelmed: What Moms Can Do When They’re Maxed Out”
Why it hits: You love your baby, but the constant physical and emotional demands leave little room for connection. This episode offers validation and boundaries you can actually use.
“Why Your Vacation Feels Like More Work”
Why it hits: So many couples try to escape the chaos only to end up fighting about sunscreen and snack bags. This episode helps you shift the dynamic so both of you get to rest.
“Spring Clean the Emotional Clutter”
Why it hits: Even if you're not arguing, there’s often unspoken tension. This episode helps uncover what’s building up in the background and how to release it together.
“Rediscovering Intimacy After Baby”
Why it hits: The changes in your body, your energy, and your identity can create major disconnects in the bedroom. This episode gives honest, compassionate ways to navigate those changes.
