For the first time we are making the Conversation original TV series interviews available on the pod. This is part of a miniseries featuring the first guests to appear on the show. In this mini episode we feature Gwyneth Paltrow. 

We discussed our postpartum depression experiences and delved into the self-imposed stigma women often attach to it—why women fail to support one another cast a shadow over both of our journeys. Gwyneth also opened up about her father’s death and how she transformed that heartbreaking ordeal into a pivotal force to shape her into the woman she is today.

IN THIS EPISODE:

(00:00) Introduction

(00:32) Gwyneth talks about the death of her father.

(04:00) Gwyneth shares how her father was the perfect man in her life.

(05:30) What is the gift of postpartum depression, and why don’t women support each other?

(07:30) Gwyneth discusses her symptoms and why she is upfront about postpartum depression.

(09:10) Gwyneth answers rapid fire questions.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

• A father's death can devastate a woman no matter her age, especially if you were a daddy’s girl.
• Women should stop criticizing other women, period, but especially on topics of postpartum depression, nursing and the list goes on.
• It’s a good thing to discuss depression with friends and family. No one should suffer alone.
