Parents today are bombarded with advice from every angle- social media, friends, family, and news sources. It can be nearly impossible to know who to trust and what advice to follow… And furthermore how to discuss it with your pediatrician. In this episode, we discuss how to sift through the endless parenting information, as well as how to build a strong relationship with your pediatrician.
Joining me today on Yoga| Birth| Babies, I have Dr. Wendy Hunter. Wendy Hunter, MD is a pediatrician in San Diego, CA. She rounds on newborns at Scripps Hospital. Her podcast “The Pediatrician Next Door” mixes the science of medicine with the realities of parenting. We hope you enjoy this conversation!

Soon customers will expect every website to talk
Think about what happens next.
A customer visits two websites.
One behaves like an intelligent assistant that can respond, recommend, qualify, and move the visitor forward.
The other says: “Browse our pages.”
Which business wins?
This is where the internet is heading.
Very soon, customers will expect websites to behave like intelligent assistants — not digital brochures.
When customer expectations move, businesses that do not adapt can look outdated very quickly.
Not because the business itself is low quality.
Because the way people interact online changed first.
Business websites are turning into conversational AI entry points.
That change has already started.
