We were lucky enough to chat with two beautifully brave ladies who shared their mental health journey with us. From pre pregnancy and beyond, such an eye opening discussion around the real-life scenarios you are faced with and have to deal with when it comes to mental health illnesses and caring for a baby. 

The biggest piece of advice I have taken from this epsiode is, don't be ashamed to ask to help. Ask for help and accept help.
