HEALING 101: Facing Postpartum Depression with Sarah Hoover

Hurt to Healing - En podcast af Pandora Morris

We’re told that new motherhood should feel magical — but what happens when it doesn’t? In this episode of Healing 101, I’m joined by writer and art historian Sarah Hoover, whose raw honesty about postpartum depression cuts through the silence and shame that so many new mothers carry alone.

We explore what postpartum depression really looks like — beyond the clichés — and how it can show up as rage, disconnection, anxiety, or even laughter that masks pain. Sarah shares her personal experience, how birth trauma can play a role, and why it’s so important to let go of the pressure to feel grateful all the time.

If you or someone you love has struggled with new motherhood, this conversation is a reminder that you’re not alone — and you deserve support, not silence.
