Do you have a postpartum depression story that you would like to share on my channel? Let me know and we'll set it up! There is power in sharing our story - it gives a sense of meaning to our pain when we know that others will benefit from our courage to speak up.

I invite you to join our private Facebook support group for Postpartum Depression & Anxiety: www.facebook.com/groups/postpartumjoy

This is a closed support group of women who have previously or are currently experiencing postpartum depression and anxiety in some shape or form, no matter how big or small. This community is a safe, open, honest and vulnerable space where you can be seen, heard, supported, acknowledged and validated. The intention of this community is to share stories, resources, skills and encouragement to generate freedom and joy. I believe when others bring forth what they are experiencing in the dark, it allows the light to come in. When people see themselves in the stories, they realize they are not crazy or alone, which helps remove the guilt and shame.

1 in 6 women and 1 in 10 men experience postpartum depression (PPD) in the months after a baby arrives home. Not only does PPD make it difficult for parents to care for themselves and their babies, it compromises bonding and attachment, and disrupts the quality of life. The most devastating and earth rattling effects of PPD can be harm to self and/or others or even death. Too many people are suffering alone. Through this channel, I want people to experience freedom and hope. Others are experiencing postpartum depression too, and together, we can make a difference.

"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has." - Margaret Mead
