It's 2 AM. Your baby has a fever you can't explain, your toddler has a rash out of nowhere, or your tween just asked a question you have no idea how to answer. Where do you turn?

This week on Mom Essentials, Angie sits down with Hans Kullberg, father of five, serial entrepreneur, and co-founder of Avocado Health, a text-based parent decision support platform built from one of the most profound losses a parent can face. Hans opens up about the journey of losing his daughter Aviva after six hospitalizations with no diagnosis, the promise he made to her, and how that promise became a real-time lifeline for parents everywhere.

In this conversation, Angie and Hans cover:
• Why health actually happens between pediatrician visits, and what that means for your family
• How to spot and act on developmental red flags (speech delays, anxiety, early intervention)
• Cutting through social media noise with evidence-based guidance from real pediatricians, child life specialists, and parent coaches
• How Avocado Health uses text messaging to put expert support in your pocket 24/7

If you have ever whispered "is this normal?" into your phone at 3 AM, this one is for you.
