Kelly Cox: Spill the Tea but Not the Breastmilk

Speaking of the Village

I’m Kelly. And, no, I don’t have kids. And, no, I’ve never wanted kids. Yes, that’s right, it’s never even crossed my mind. I’ve never wanted to be a mother. From the beginning, I knew I was meant for a different role.

So how did I become a pregnancy and birth guru, a lover of all things pre-, peri-, and postnatal, and (or so some have said) a baby whisperer? Honestly, it was sort of an accident.

I started out as a licensed clinical social worker. For years, I worked with mothers and children, helping them navigate all the stressors that come with parenthood and family life and build skills to overcome depression, lifelong trauma, and all the difficulties of modern life. But, still, I knew therapy wasn’t the whole picture for me.
