About Andrea Olson

I'm Andrea and I spend most of my time with my 6 children (all under 12 yo) and the rest of my time teaching other new parents how to do Elimination Communication with their 0-18 month babies. I love what I do and try to make a difference in one baby or parent's life every single day. (And I love, love, love, mango gelato.)

    Hi! Just wanted to let you know the text of the transcript is for a previous episode. I usually only have space to speed read the transcripts while I’m nursing. Is there a way to find out when it’s updated? Thanks!!

      Typically the transcripts are available as soon as the podcast is up. I can double check though! Thanks!

        Thanks for looking into it! I just looked again and it’s in the section above that can be expanded by the “-“. The top of the section says that it’s this episode (213) but the entirety of the text is from episode 197.
