May is Maternal Mental Health Awareness month and the first week of May is Maternal Mental Health Awareness Week.

Did you know? 1 in 7 Moms and 1 in 10 Dads suffer from postpartum depression

During the pandemic I've been interviewing some incredible providers - I consider them part of my wrap around network of care givers.

I'm a member of PSI & a Postpartum Depression Survivor - please visit https://www.postpartum.net/ for resources & support.

For this Podcast - the whole month of May is dedicated to mothers - It's my birthday month & the month I became a mom! My services have evolved from prenatal/postpartum massage to life coaching & postpartum planning. 

My First Interview is with Denise. We meet at Peace Camp & baked bread together. I reached out to learn more about her work. She works 1-1 with clients & leads a circle called This is Taking Longer Than I Expected: A Therapy Group for Moms Experiencing Postpartum Depression and Anxiety for more than six months.

From Denise's Website:

My intention for my work is to create a space for conversations that are warm and collaborative, and that are respectful of your individual values, goals, and preferences.

I hope to create a safe space where we can laugh, cry and explore together. I am active and involved in our conversations, searching for questions that might help you come to new understandings of yourself, others, and your deepest purposes for life.
