Girls Night #288: 5 Things New Moms can Stop Worrying About (and 5 Things that Deserve your Attention) — with Emily Oster

Girls Night with Stephanie May Wilson

Hey friends! Welcome to Girls’ Night!

As a new mom, I desperately needed guidance on what to worry about and what to let go of. I'm sure many of you can relate to those frantic 2am Google searches! That’s why today we're diving into the top 5 things new moms can stop worrying about, and the 5 essential things that deserve your attention.

There’s no better person to help us with this than my favorite parenting guru, Emily Oster! Emily is the founder and CEO of ParentData, a data-driven guide to pregnancy and parenting, and a Professor of Economics at Brown University. Emily is on a mission to empower parents by providing the data and tools they need to make confident decisions.

I’m also excited to share about her brand new newsletter called PregnantData that is loaded with resources about trying to conceive. Head to the show notes for the link! You can always find our show notes at Girls Night Podcast.Com!

Emily's resources have saved me from so much unnecessary stress and anxiety as a new mom. I can’t wait for you to hear from her!

One last thing before we dive in:

This show is all about women supporting women — and so that’s why, this season, we’re doing a really fun giveaway each week as a thank you for supporting this show (and the women who put it together!).

This week, we’ll be picking one winner of a $50 visa gift card — perfect for hosting a girls night of your own!

To enter, all you have to do is take a screenshot of the show as you’re listening, and share it on social media. Make sure to tag me! I’m @SMayWilson.

Again, we’ll pick the winner at the end of the week and all you have to do to enter to win a $50 visa gift card is share about the show on social media and tag me, I’m @SMayWilson on Instagram.

Okay, with that said, let’s dive into my conversation with Emily!
