If you’ve ever thought:

• “It was working… but now I’m missing everything”
• “My baby was signaling, but now they’re resisting”
• “I don’t know what to do at this stage”

This episode is for you.

Because this is the part of elimination communication that almost no one talks about.

Not the first catch. Not the highlight reel.

But the messy middle—where your baby is learning, growing, changing… and things stop feeling clear.

In this episode, I’m sharing a real, unfiltered excerpt from one of my Listening Circle coaching calls—where I talk through what actually happened when:

👉 my baby clearly needed to poop… 👉 I gave him the space to get there on his own… 👉 and he did THIS instead...

But that doesn’t mean failure.

It means the process is working.

We’re talking about:

• Why misses and messes are part of learning
• What “progress” actually looks like in EC
• Why independence comes after awareness and communication
• And what to do when you’re no longer a beginner—but not fully confident either

Because EC isn’t something you learn once and master.

It’s something you live with your baby—and it changes constantly.

✨ This is exactly why I created the Listening Circle.

A space for moms who are already practicing EC and need support in the real-life moments:

• when your baby stops signaling
• when they resist the potty
• when you’re thinking about ditching diapers
• when you’re not sure what to do next

Inside, we get on live calls together and work through what’s actually happening with your baby—in real time.

Not theory. Not guesswork.

Real support, so you can stop second guessing and make this work in your life.

What if your baby is already showing you exactly when they need to pee or poop… and you’re just missing it?

In this episode, I’m walking you through 5 clear, everyday signals that your baby is already communicating—some of which probably happened today without you even realizing what they meant.

We’re talking about:

• The moment your baby suddenly goes quiet (and why it matters)
• What squirming during feeds is really telling you
• Why babies lose interest in food mid-meal
• The truth behind fussiness in the carrier
• And one of the most overlooked sleep disruptions that’s actually a potty cue

These aren’t advanced techniques or complicated routines. These are real-life moments—things you’re already seeing—that can completely change how you approach elimination communication.

If you’ve ever felt like:

• “I don’t know when my baby needs to go”
• “I think I’m missing the signals”
• “I don’t want to guess and get it wrong”

This episode will give you a whole new lens to see what’s already happening.

Because EC isn’t about doing more. It’s about noticing what’s already there.

If you’ve been curious about elimination communication (EC) but feel like you don’t have the time, energy, or consistency to do it “right”… this episode is for you.

Because here’s the truth no one talks about: EC is not a perfect practice.

In this episode, I’m sharing a real, unfiltered look at what infant potty learning actually looks like in a busy, working-mom life—with three kids, early mornings that don’t go as planned, missed cues, messy moments, and yes… poop on the floor.

You’ll learn:

• Why you don’t need to catch every pee or poop for EC to “work”
• How to practice elimination communication while still using diapers
• What it looks like to follow your baby’s signals without pressure or perfection
• Why missed catches still build your baby’s awareness and communication
• How to approach EC with confidence—even if you work or your baby goes to daycare

If you’re pregnant or newly postpartum and thinking, “I want to do this… I just need a clear, simple way to start…”

👉 Born Ready walks you through exactly how to begin EC from day one (or wherever you’re starting), without overwhelm You’ll learn what to look for, when to offer, and how to make this feel natural in your real life

If you’ve gotten a few catches, but you’re still wondering:

• “Am I doing this right?”
• “Why did signals disappear?”
• “Why does it feel so hit or miss?”

👉 The Listening Circle is where you get real-time support, troubleshooting, and reassurance This is where we take everything from “I think I get it…” to “I feel confident doing this every day”

If your baby is standing, cruising, or walking—and you’re starting to think about life without diapers…

👉 Ditch the Diapers shows you how to transition from assisted pottying to true independence (without power struggles, pressure, or waiting until age 2+)

If you’ve ever thought:

• “I love this idea, but I could never do it like that”
• “I tried EC and it didn’t go perfectly”
• “I don’t have the capacity for one more thing”

I want you to hear this clearly:

You can do this imperfectly—and it still matters.

Because EC isn’t about being diaper-free. It’s about learning to listen to your baby—and trusting yourself to respond.
