I had a chat with about 40 parents in our Go Diaper Free community. 🗣️Most of them had been following me for ages, downloading guides, even buying potties…but hadn’t started EC yet. 🙊

Why?

Overwhelm. Fear of messing it up. Worrying their baby was too fragile. Or just sitting on the sidelines, watching instead of trying. 👀 In today’s episode, I’ll walk you through these common blocks and share the simplest way to finally begin EC with your baby.

Spoiler: it’s way easier than you think.

Ever wonder how parents in other cultures potty their babies? In today’s episode, I’m sharing stories of indigenous peoples in Africa who never used diapers—long before “elimination communication” had a name.

From Botswana to Uganda, you’ll hear how mothers simply knew when their babies needed to go, how older siblings pitched in, and why there’s so much less fuss around pottying outside the Western world.

It’s fascinating, eye-opening, and might just shift the way you see EC in your own home.

If I had a dollar for how many moms didn’t start elimination communication because they had to return to work, use a daycare, and didn’t think it would be worth the effort...man, I’d have a bunch of dollars!
