Obstetricians play an important role in perinatal mental health, and hearing their perspective is always informative. It makes my heart happy to learn that more and more OBs are getting trained in perinatal mental health so they can offer more help to their patients. My guest shares her story to help normalize the perinatal mental health issues that many women face. Join us!

Dr. La Toya Luces-Sampson (Dr. Toya on social media) is a wife, mother, coach, and board-certified obstetrician and gynecologist. Her work is geared to physician moms who are postpartum and beyond to help them go from feeling anxiety and resentment to feeling confidence and joy. She does this through private coaching and as the host of the Stethoscopes and Strollers Podcast.
