I AM ONE Podcast
Postpartum Support International (PSI) staff and volunteers reflect on their own lived experience during the perinatal period (pregnancy + postpartum). Guests will explain how they sought & received help, and how they’re supporting the mental health of new families now. We’ll illustrate PSI’s core belief, that “You are not alone; You are not to blame; With help you will be well,” through storytelling. Each episode will demonstrate that none of us are alone, and that no matter our story, we can all say, “I AM ONE,” of many who are touched by Perinatal Mental Health Disorders (PMHD). Whether you’re seeking stories from someone who’s been there, or looking for a way to channel your passion for perinatal mental health advocacy, we hope to offer encouragement while making room for the serious and the silly. There is strength in processing trauma and empowerment in sharing stories – so that’s what we’re here to do!

CODY ALVEY - I AM ONE Mom Driven to Make a Difference for Others (Anxiety, PPD, ADHD, Intrusive Thoughts)
Trigger Warning: Intrusive Thoughts
On today’s episode, we’re sitting down with the self-proclaimed “Most Devoted Listener of the I AM ONE Podcast, the amazing - Cody Alvey. Cody is a Perinatal Mental Health-Certified Lactation Educator, and the Executive Assistant extraordinaire to PSI’s Executive Director, Dr. Wendy Davis. We’ll hear all about Cody’s lifelong experience with anxiety, diagnoses of both complex PTSD & ADHD, and how she became involved with PSI in the first place. Through this conversation, Cody beautifully illustrates that when it comes to experiencing perinatal mental health disorders, you are not alone, you’re not to blame for feeling how you fell, and that with help you will be well. So without any further ado, please sit back, relax, and enjoy this episode with our friend, Cody.
