#118 When I was a new mom, I suffered from postpartum depression and anxiety. But while I'd heard about these conditions, I didn't believe they could happen to me. I thought I could fix it all with the right exercise routine or system. I didn't know how to ask for help.
 
Taking care of your mental health as a new mom - and as your children grow - is crucially important. For your health and your kiddo's.
 
This week on Smart Money Mamas Live, I'm going to be joined by 3 amazing experts - Dr. Sheryl Ziegler Tiffany Day, and Cinthia Rivas - to talk all about maternal mental health.
