🍼☕ The Bobbing Head & the Missing Hat: What Babies Are Quietly Telling Us

If you’ve noticed newborns’ heads bobbing more often or babies going bareheaded indoors and felt a quiet “hmm…” in your body, this episode is for you. You’re not imagining it.

In this gentle but honest conversation, Dominique and Erica unpack how modern parenting advice, speed culture, and well-meaning sound bites have subtly shifted how we hold and care for newborns. We explore why head support still matters, why warmth soothes the developing nervous system, and how ancient caregiving wisdom didn’t disappear, it just got compressed.

This isn’t about blame or fear. It’s about slowing down, trusting instinct, and remembering what newborn bodies actually need: stillness, support, warmth, and rhythm. Sometimes the most radical parenting move is simply holding a baby like time isn’t rushing you. ☕💛

✨ You’re not old-fashioned.

You’re not imagining it.

When a baby’s head bobs or their tiny head looks chilly, your body notices for a reason. Newborns don’t need toughness. They need support, warmth, and slowness.

This episode spills the tea on how modern advice lost some ancient wisdom and why your instincts are still right. 🍼☕

📣 They call her garden boring.

Same zucchini. Same herbs. Year after year.

What they don’t know?

She’s been saving seeds for over a decade—selecting, adapting, and growing plants that know this land better than any catalog ever could.

In this episode of Spill the Tea with D & E, we talk about seed saving, patience, resilience, and why playing the long game quietly might be the most radical thing you can do.

🫖✨ A story that keeps resurfacing on Facebook for a reason.

In this episode of Spill the Tea with D & E, we retell the quiet, powerful story of Locker 305—a broken locker turned secret pantry by students, protected by a janitor who noticed what others missed.

This isn’t just a feel-good story.

It’s a blueprint.

We talk about hunger, dignity, why janitors are unsung heroes in our schools, and how one small act of noticing can change an entire culture.

Because sometimes the most important work happens after the bell rings. 🧹💙

🎙️ Podcast Description: Everyone’s shouting “New year, new you!” — but your body is quietly asking for a blanket, a nap, and maybe some soup.

In this cozy winter episode of Spill the Tea with D & E, Dominique and Erica gently call out January hustle culture and remind us of something radical and true: it’s still winter.

This season isn’t asking for momentum, grind, or reinvention.

It’s asking for restoration, repair, and listening inward.

If you’re moving slower, feeling softer, or craving more rest, you’re not behind — you’re aligned. Pour a warm cup, settle in, and let this episode normalize honoring your body’s seasonal wisdom instead of fighting it.

☕✨ Slow is not failure.

❄️ Rest is not quitting.

🌱 Winter is doing its job.

📱 January isn’t a reset button — it’s a blanket. ❄️☕

If your body is asking you to slow down, you’re not alone… and you’re not wrong.

This tea is for anyone tired of pretending winter is spring.

Listen. Rest. Restore. 🌱
