PATIENCE RILEY - I AM ONE Military Spouse Who Stopped Surviving and Started Healing After Accepting Help
On today’s episode, we’re sitting down with our friend, and Perinatal Mental Health-Certified powerhouse, Patience Riley. Patience is a Licensed Mental Health Therapist, a foodie, a military spouse, and a mother of two. We’ll hear all about how loneliness and isolation played a role in her transition to motherhood, especially with a partner on deployment. Patience is behind some pretty incredible work here at PSI as the Communications Manager of the Perinatal Mental Health Alliance for People of Color and we are absolutely thrilled to bring you her story.
