Strength in Vulnerability: Parenting, Medicine, and Postnatal Depression with Dr Catherine Kizana


Listen Later

Dr. Catherine Kizana is an Emergency Medicine Specialist and Parenting Coach. We're lucky to have her on to share her journey through medicine, parenting, and postnatal depression. Dr Kizana sees her experience being admitted in a mother and baby psychiatric unit for 5 weeks as the hardest thing she's ever been through and the greatest gift. From this difficult time, her company ABC Parenting was founded so that she can help other parents in their own journey.


We discuss:

  • Transitioning to a new specialty in medicine
  • Fertility journey and postnatal depression
  • Mandatory reporting
  • The impact of childhood experiences on parenting
  • Fear is a common theme in parenting, and understanding its impact can lead to better responses
  • For parenting coaching with Dr Kizana go to ABC Parenting
