Tales From The Fourth Trimester

12 | Megan Gale: "I felt like I was failing"


Listen Later

Megan Gale is one of Australia's most recognisable faces, having graced our screens, billboards and magazines for two decades. But while her life might look shiny and perfect, Megan's the first to admit that first-time motherhood tested her like nothing else - and when it came to falling pregnant a second time, her experience changed the course of her life and career. In this episode, Megan shares how she dealt with grief and loss during her first postpartum, why she wonders if she had postnatal depression, how breastfeeding challenged her and the way a miscarriage made her reassess her life. She candidly discusses consciously slowing down, taking the leap into creating her new business Midful Life and why she'll always prioritise her relationship. Thank you so much for sharing the beauty and brutality of postpartum with us, Megan!
