About this Episode

This week's episode features speaker and writer Nish Weiseth, who shares the story of suffering with severe postpartum depression when her first child was born, resulting in a near suicide attempt.

Nish was able to get help and begin the journey of managing her mental health as a new mother.  Later, with her second child, she experienced postpartum anxiety.  She shares her insights on the differences between these two common postpartum mood disorders, and her heart for mothers to find the support they need and not compromise on self care.

Nish lives in Salt Lake City with her family, where she makes waves as a writer, speaker and editor.  She has a powerful voice as an advocate for many different causes, including inclusive spirituality and special needs.  You can find more info on her at www.nishweiseth.com, and can check out her book on the power of telling your story here: Speak.
