In this episode, I sit down with my mom, the first person I opened up to about my intrusive thoughts, to talk about what that experience was like from her side.

We talk about how she knew something wasn’t right, how she helped me find support, and what it looked like to walk alongside me without trying to take over. She shares honestly about the emotional weight of that season, how she educated herself on postpartum mental health, and how she supported not just me—but my husband, too.

This conversation is for the moms, the grandmothers, the partners, and the support people—the ones who want to help but may not always know how.

Postpartum isn’t just a transition for moms—it deeply impacts marriage, communication, and connection too.

In today’s episode, I’m joined by my husband as we have an honest conversation about what it really looked like to walk through postpartum depression and anxiety together. From the inside perspective of a husband, we’re talking about the things that were confusing, the things that helped, and the things he wishes more men understood about this season.

If you’re a mom in the thick of postpartum, this episode will help you feel seen and understood. And if you’re sharing this with your husband (highly recommend), it will give him practical, tangible ways to support you—without feeling like he has to “fix” everything.

In this deeply personal episode, I’m sharing more of my own postpartum story — from walking through postpartum depression to finding healing, purpose, and eventually building a business supporting other moms in the season I once struggled through myself.

We talk about what it looked like to wrestle with fear, identity shifts, and mental health challenges after becoming a mom, while also learning how the Lord was gently rebuilding my confidence, strengthening my faith, and calling me into the work I do today.

If you’re in a hard postpartum season right now, I hope this episode reminds you that healing is possible, support matters, and you are not forgotten in motherhood.

Whether you are struggling emotionally, feeling overwhelmed by the transition into motherhood, or wondering how God could possibly use your story for good, this conversation is for you.

Are what you’re feeling normal postpartum emotions… or could it be something more?

In this episode, I’m joined by Brittany Keating, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with a perinatal mental health certification (PMH-C) and founder of Cocoon and Bloom Collective, to unpack a question so many moms quietly wonder about:

What’s the difference between baby blues and a perinatal mental health disorder?

We talk through what the baby blues can look like, how they differ from postpartum depression and anxiety, and what signs may indicate it’s time to reach out for support.

Have you ever wondered whether introducing allergens early could actually help protect your baby—and how to do it without spiraling into fear?

In this episode, we cover:

• Why early allergen introduction may play a powerful role in food allergy prevention and what the research actually says.

• How to introduce common allergens like peanut and egg in practical, low-stress ways that fit real family life.

• The connection between infant gut health, the microbiome, and how your baby’s immune system learns what is safe.

If you’re ready to feel more confident navigating infant feeding and reduce the fear surrounding food allergies, then this episode is for you. 

Have you thought about how to mentally prepare for the changes in your body after baby?

If you’ve ever thought, “I guess this is just motherhood… I’m always going to feel this tired,”—this episode is going to gently challenge that.

Today I’m joined by Allison Occkial, a holistic and functional medicine trainer who specializes in helping women understand what’s really going on in their bodies—especially during pregnancy and postpartum.

We’re talking about the difference between what’s common and what’s actually normal, why so many moms feel dismissed when it comes to their health, and how your hormones, stress, and daily habits are all deeply connected.

This conversation is going to help you stop brushing off your symptoms and start advocating for your body with confidence.
