Send us Fan MailTRIGGER WARNING: Intrusive Thoughts On today’s episode, we’re sitting down with Samantha Konikoff, a guest that is near and dear to my heart. As mentioned at the beginning of every single I AM ONE Podcast episode, hearing one person share their story changed the trajectory of my life. And so, today we’ll hear from that person! Samantha is not only a good friend, she’s also an incredible change-maker whose passion and skills support folks in the perinatal period in her local community as well as across the country! We’ll hear how her lived experience with PPA, PPD, OCD influenced her greater purpose in advocating for parents. Also, we’ll touch on how Climb Out of the Darkness helped her connect with others, build community, and why supporting parents and new families is so important.Mentioned in today's episode:Climb Out of the Darkness Program Find a 2023 Climb near you!PSI Support GroupsVillage Circle BellinghamMobile Mama TherapyPerinatal Support WashingtonPodcast: The Moth, Modern LoveBook: Down Came the Rain: My Journey Through Postpartum DepressionInterested in sharing your story?Fill out our podcast interest form here!
