About This Episode

After a season away from the mic to welcome their son into the world, Lisa returns to The Confident Podcast with a very special guest her husband, Marc. Together, they open up about one of life’s biggest transitions: becoming parents for the first time.

In this heartfelt conversation, Lisa and Marc share the highs and lows of pregnancy, birth, and navigating those first months of parenthood while juggling careers, emotions, and a brand-new rhythm of life. From private choices during pregnancy to walks that kept them grounded, they talk candidly about what confidence looked like in a season full of unknowns.

You’ll hear:

  • Why they chose to keep parts of their journey private
  • The surprising emotions that came before and after Lucas’s arrival
  • How they balanced busy careers with sleepless nights
  • What actually helped and what didn’t during this transition
  • Their honest reflections on teamwork, identity, and growth as new parents

Whether you’re a parent, hope to be one someday, or just want a behind-the-scenes glimpse into real life change, this episode is a reminder that confidence isn’t about having it all figured out, it’s about being willing to grow, together.

If this resonates, share it with a new parent or anyone stepping into a new season of life. And if you’re ready for support in your own journey, you’ll also hear how to connect with Lisa for coaching and resources.
