Thanks for stopping by! We'd love to hear from you.

In this special episode, we turn the mic toward the voice behind Perinatal & Reproductive Perspectives. Host and founder Becky Morrison Gleed, LMFT, shares the story of how this podcast came to be—rooted in her clinical work, her deep commitment to perinatal mental health, and her desire to elevate thoughtful, compassionate conversations in the reproductive space.

Becky reflects on the gaps she saw in how we talk about reproductive journeys—from fertility challenges to pregnancy, postpartum, loss, and the many emotional complexities in between. She opens up about what drives her as a clinician, what she hopes to change in the field, and how storytelling can shift the way we understand and support families.

Together, we explore:

• Becky’s path into perinatal and reproductive mental health
• The origins and mission of the Perinatal & Reproductive Perspectives podcast
• Why nuanced, evidence-informed conversations are desperately needed
• The emotional realities clinicians often witness but the public rarely hears
• What Becky envisions for the future of reproductive care and community education

Whether you’re a provider, a parent, or someone passionate about reproductive wellbeing, this episode offers an intimate look at the purpose and person behind a podcast designed to educate, validate, and connect.

Tune in to hear the story behind the mic—and the heart behind the work.
