Hey MA! Thanks for listening and giving a new mom podcast a chance
In our first episode we talk about Identity after Motherhood. We discuss:

Resenting our partner and friends all while not asking for help or speaking up
Not recognizing ourselves after becoming a parent
Not putting our identity into the title of mom or wife
Prioritizing ourselves without (much) mom guilt
Don't call us superheroes!

In our Hey MA! Segment we answer a complicated question for a mom that lost her identity in a relationship that ended suddenly and left nothing to her name.

Welcome to Moms Actually

Hosted by Blair Gyamfi, Sopha Rush and Morgan Taylor, Moms Actually is a talk show designed to create a safe space for moms and friends to have genuine, relatable and inspiring discussions.
These topic-based conversations are aimed at debunking the “glossy” image of parenting on social media that drives our expectations of life - our looks, our success, our relationships and even how we parent. We aim to build a community for motherhood and sisterhood that supports those who have felt alone in their personal parenting journey.
Season 1 features guests such as Tamar Braxton, Erica Campbell, Bri Babineaux, Tammy Franklin and Carrington Franklin-Nakwaasah sharing their experiences on first-time motherhood, body image, marriage and motherhood as well as intimacy after having children.
Starting this month, we will be releasing episodes weekly on YouTube and Podcast platforms.

Mentally Unavailable

1 Recommendations

In Episode 2, we talk about being "Mentally Unavailable" during our postpartum mental health journey.
Notes:

How to cope with Postpartum Mood Disorders (PPMD) while still being a fulltime mom
The differences between Postpartum Depression (PPD) and Postpartum Anxiety (PPA)
Recounting specific experiences with PPMD and how we overcame it
Side effects of prescribed medicine and debunking the shame that comes with taking medicine.

If you or someone you know is dealing with any symptoms of PPMD please know that you are not alone. Reach out to a friend, spouse/partner, internet bestie or your primary physician to discuss your options. Struggling mentally is nothing to be ashamed of and it is more common than we believe. We hope this episode is healing and brings you a sense of comfort.
