2 // How Postpartum Depression Saved My Life

This is by far the most terrifying story I will ever tell.  I’ve been so terrified to tell it, in fact, that I put off starting this podcast for well over a year because I knew in my gut this story had to be the first main episode of this podcast.  Why?  Because without this story, Work Life Glue wouldn’t be here (and maybe I wouldn’t be either).  This is the story of how my horrific bout of Postpartum Depression after my first daughter was born led me to the life of my dreams, and in turn I believe saved my life from becoming a massive trainwreck, or at the very least, a life of complacency.  I am sharing this to spread awareness about Postpartum Depression, to “own my ick” so that it doesn’t own me anymore, to show others what you can turn negative experiences into with lots of reframing, and to show how Work Life Glue came to be and why I’m so passionate about serving working moms.Show Notes: http://www.worklifeglue.com/podcast/depression/
