Moms certainly face a challenging time when faced with postpartum depression and anxiety. At a time in their life when they are at their most vulnerable and stressed and overwhelmed, they need support and understanding.

However, when they turn to others, the reaction often is "get yourself together and toughen up".

This week's guest Suzanne Yatim Aslam went through this journey with her two kids and her personal experience with postpartum depression and anxiety left her feeling alone and confused. She has put her personal experience into her book, Post Pardon Me which is written in the form of journal entries. You get to go inside Suzanne's head and she addresses the dark thoughts that so many mothers have but are too scared to say out loud. If you're struggling with postpartum depression and anxiety then don't miss this episode.
