I AM ONE Podcast by Postpartum Support International
Connect with PSI through the power of storytelling!
Perinatal mental health advocates share their personal journeys through pregnancy and postpartum, detailing how they found support, discovered PSI, and now help others.
Through storytelling, we bring PSI’s message to life: You are not alone. You are not to blame. With help, you will be well. Each episode affirms that Perinatal Mental Health Disorders (PMHD) affect many—and each of us can say, “I AM ONE.”
Whether you're seeking connection or a way to advocate, we offer space for both the serious and the lighthearted. There is strength in healing and power in sharing— so that's what we’re here for!

SAMANTHA KONIKOFF: I AM ONE Mom Who Discovered She Could Make a Difference (PPA, PPD, PPOCD)
TRIGGER WARNING: Intrusive Thoughts
On today’s episode, we’re sitting down with Samantha Konikoff, a guest that is near and dear to my heart. As mentioned at the beginning of every single I AM ONE Podcast episode, hearing one person share their story changed the trajectory of my life. And so, today we’ll hear from that person! Samantha is not only a good friend, she’s also an incredible change-maker whose passion and skills support folks in the perinatal period in her local community as well as across the country! We’ll hear how her lived experience with PPA, PPD, OCD influenced her greater purpose in advocating for parents. Also, we’ll touch on how Climb Out of the Darkness helped her connect with others, build community, and why supporting parents and new families is so important.
