EP 158 Maternal Mental Health and Returning to Work with Dr. Emily Guarnotta Postpartum University® Podcast

    • Mental Health

It's no secret that mothers in the U.S. return to their careers after childbirth way too early. 

Today's conversation dives into the effects of returning to work on maternal mental health. 
I'm speaking with Dr. Emily Guarnotta, founder of Phoenix Health who brings her expert perspective as a licensed clinical psychologist and certified perinatal mental health specialist. 

In this episode, we're sharing:
The perspective mothers can take when returning to work to ease the effects of the transition on their mental health.How changes in breastfeeding correlate with the timing of returning to work and what to expect emotionally with this experience. Thoughts on whether maternal mental health conditions are caused or exacerbated by returning to work. 5 steps to take to make the most of returning to work. Whether or not to discuss your mental health condition with your colleagues or employer. Until paid family leave is part of our society in the U.S., we'll continue to deal with the reality of returning to work too early and the effects it has on maternal mental health.

This episode is packed with tips that will help you make the most of whatever situation you find yourself in and remind you that you're not alone.
