As we all know, parenthood can feel like one big roller coaster with multiple ups and downs, often just within a day. Raw is the first word that comes to mind with this refreshing podcast. Radically honest in their approach to sharing all the ups, downs, struggles, and gray areas that come with marriage, relationships, parenting, careers, and life in general. They bring in experts, inspirational leaders, and celebrities to talk about big issues every parent faces in a straightforward and easy to digest format.
In this episode I am joined by Dr. Pooja Lakshmin, MD who is a board-certified psychiatrist and writer specializing in women's mental health and perinatal psychiatry and a contributor to The New York Times Parenting section. On today’s episode we discuss the mental crisis parents are facing during this Pandemic. We talk about the increase in anxiety & depression during these times for parents and expecting parents as well. We also discuss something called MARTYR MODE that a lot of parents, especially mothers, go through. She shares with us tangible tips and things parents can do during this time of crisis.
