このコンテンツについて
We hear a lot about postnatal depression, but anxiety in motherhood? Not so much. And yet, it's something so many mums face quietly.
In this episode, Dr Renee White opens up about her personal experience with postpartum anxiety. From sleepless nights and constant worry to the moment she realised something wasn’t right, Renee shares how this chapter shaped her journey as a mum and the founder of Fill Your Cup.
She also breaks down the science behind maternal anxiety, what’s going on in your brain and body and offers simple, evidence-informed tools to help you feel calmer and more supported in the chaos of early motherhood.
If you've ever wondered, “Is this normal?” or felt like you're carrying too much, this episode is for you.
You’ll hear about:
- What postpartum anxiety actually looks and feels like, and how it's different from depression
- Renee’s lived experience with anxiety and the ripple effect it had on her family
- What’s happening biologically during postpartum anxiety
- Practical tools to soothe your nervous system
- How to recognise when you need support and where to find it
