Berenice: An overwhelming, vulnerable, miraculous first year | Episode 8
Berenice is a mother of three and a social worker in California who shares about an overwhelming, vulnerable, and miraculous first year.
She talks about all of the adjustment that she and her family went through in that first year, how her relationship with her partner was tested, and how they learned the importance of co-regulation and extending grace to each other to strengthen their relationship.
Berenice shares about her experience with postpartum depression and anxiety and what it looked like to get help - eventually - and some of the grief she experienced with an unexpected pregnancy that threw off her timeline and expectations of motherhood, along with the fun and joy of a full household.
