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!
I AM ONE Podcast by Postpartum Support International
LISA McCARTY - I AM ONE IVF Mom, Birth Trauma Survivor, Writer & Peer Support Group Leader
TRIGGER WARNING: Traumatic Birth, Intrusive Thoughts
On Today’s episode, we’re sitting down with Lisa McCarty, a women’s health advocate, a mom, and a writer - who has long amplified her voice through words on paper. Today, we’re in for a treat when Lisa’s words will travel straight from her mouth and into our earbuds. We’ll chat about what it felt like to step away from a successful career - something she had never anticipated doing, managing a flood of mixed emotions after IVF, and the importance of sharing stories. Well talk infertility, anxiety, PPD & OCD. So without any further ado, please sit back, relax, and enjoy this episode with our friend, Lisa.
Mentioned in today's episode:
- Lisa's article on PSI's Blog: "Stories of Hope: Lessons Learned Through Fertility Struggles and Traumatic Birth"
- Podcasts: Raising Good Humans
- Books: 1,000 Words; You Could Make This Place Beautiful; The Way Forward
