This episode covers amazing topics like how changing hormones can affect mental health, the difference between a change in hormones and postpartum depression, and tips on selecting the best mental health provider. 

There are so many factors that affect you as a new parent and while this time will not be easy, it should be an experience you can enjoy! The months and years surrounding pregnancy and entry to motherhood can feel like a never-ending 🎢 rollercoaster.- if you or someone you know is in this season of life,  this episode is filled with extremely valuable information, so please share this episode with them 😘 🐣💛
