You go into motherhood with so much excitement and joy, but the postpartum experience can quickly take you by surprise—especially because it’s so hard to prioritize your own needs and wellbeing after having a baby.

 In this vulnerable episode, I open up about my battle with postpartum depression and, much more importantly, the scientifically proven habits I’ve since learned are crucial for moms’ mental health.


BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU'LL DISCOVER:

  •  The recipe for disaster (aka, what NOT to do when having a baby)
  •  How loneliness, martyr mentality, and impossibly high standards combined to make me suicidal
  •  All kinds of small, simple steps that protect moms from losing themselves in new motherhood
  •  How making time for yourself—even just a few minutes—has an exponentially positive spillover effect
