Unveiling Motherhood: Navigating Mental Health and Wellness w/ Keely Clark - Part 1

Kindred Conversations with Aubrey Baptista

Do you ever wonder what lies behind the veil of motherhood? Our candid conversation with Keely Clark, the founder of Mother Bloom Wellness and a licensed clinical social worker, brings you face-to-face with all the hidden nuances. A passionate advocate for mental health support for mothers, Keely shares her own journey through prenatal anxiety, deep earth trauma, and postpartum depression, and her transition from the legal system and the VA to mental health. She enriches our understanding of motherhood as she shares her insights into reparenting, the power of self-care and self-compassion for new mothers, and finding authenticity amidst the chaos of motherhood.
Keely courageously opens up about her own postpartum intrusive thoughts, highlighting the immense need to normalize such experiences and alleviate the ensuing anxiety. We delve into the neurobiological shifts that occur during pregnancy and postpartum, their effects on the mother-child relationship, and the guilt and shame often associated with intrusive thoughts. The conversation continues with a deep exploration of postpartum complexities and the best ways to provide support for mothers during this vulnerable phase. Join us as we traverse the terrain of motherhood and mental health, guided by Keely's unique insights and experiences.
