05. When You Don't Feel Like Yourself Postpartum with therapist Stephanie Risinger

In this episode, perinatal counselor Stephanie Risinger (@hopefulandwhole) and I go through a broad overview of the various ways in which you may not feel like yourself during pregnancy and postpartum. We cover dashed expectations, lack of support, the spectrum of perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, and when to know you might need some additional help. This is a great episode to have your partner listen to, as well!
