Redefining Us
This podcast is all about redefining what it means to be a woman in today's culture where women are breaking those glass ceilings and coming into their own. In this podcast we will be exploring womanhood in all its facets, including sexual desire, parenthood, relationships with one another, pregnancy, postpartum, our relationships with our bodies, the media, and more. So if you're like me and want to learn, grow, heal and break those freaking ceilings please tune in and join the conversation ladies.
Tune in every other week to hear our guests and myself share information about mental health, their personal stories and other interesting topics that relate to being a woman.
Your host Stephanie Konter-O’Hara is a mom, an entrepreneur, a therapist, a woman that enjoys exploring new things and ways of thinking.

8: Breaking the Silence on Maternal Mental Health with Cre Chritz
What if finding the right support during postpartum could change everything? In this episode, we dive into the challenges many new moms face, from physical recovery to emotional well-being, and how a lack of accessible resources often leaves them feeling isolated. Together, we explore ways to prioritize maternal mental health and navigate this pivotal time with the care every mother deserves.
Creinthea (Cre) Chritz, a psychiatric nurse practitioner and master's-prepared educator, shares about her journey into mental health care, her work with mothers and women across life stages, and how her personal experiences shaped her professional path.
Cre shares her transition from teaching to nursing and her passion for addressing the unique mental health needs of women. She opens up about her own challenges with gestational diabetes, preeclampsia, and postpartum anxiety, which inspired her to found Coherent Care Women's and Maternal Wellness. Her practice, based in Denver, Colorado, also serves women in Florida and Iowa, with plans to expand further.
