“When the Joy Feels Heavy: Understanding Postpartum Depression”On this episode of the Journey Into Mental Health Podcast, we’re opening up about a topic close to my heart — Postpartum Depression. So many new mothers silently struggle under the weight of expectations, exhaustion, and emotions they never saw coming. In this episode, we talk about what PPD really looks like, how families — especially grandmothers — can offer meaningful support, and why no mother should ever feel ashamed for needing help. If you or someone you love is navigating those early, overwhelming months, this conversation is for you. Join me as we shine a light on healing, hope, and the power of showing up.
