Postpartum depression is more than “just the baby blues.” In this episode of A Mother Is Born, birth mentor and doula Kayla Mackenzie shares her raw, personal journey through postpartum depression — from those first dark weeks after birth to finding hope and healing.

You’ll learn:

  • How to recognize the difference between postpartum depression and the baby blues
  • Common risk factors (history of depression, stressful life events, poor sleep, nutrient deficiencies, breastfeeding struggles, and more)
  • How to recognize postpartum depression and tools professionals use to screen for it
  • Treatment options, from therapy and SSRIs to lifestyle and nutritional supports
  • The real risks of untreated depression versus the risks of medication while breastfeeding

Whether you’re a new mom, a birth worker, or someone supporting a loved one, this episode offers validation, practical tools, and hope. Postpartum depression is common — and it’s highly treatable.
