The Motherload: Sarah Hoover's Birth Trauma Story
Welcome back to another episode of the Post Traumatic Podcast! For today's episode, I invited another special guest, Sarah Hoover—the author of the book Motherload, who will share her raw and honest birth trauma story and how it redefined her motherhood journey.
We'll talk about the unspoken challenges of postpartum depression and the societal pressures that often leave new mothers feeling isolated. Sarah will open up about her personal struggles, revealing the vulnerability and courage it took to confront her own truths. We'll discuss the importance of empathy and trauma-informed care in transforming the childbirth experience, and why sharing these stories is crucial for breaking the cycle of shame and silence.
This conversation is not just about motherhood; it's about understanding the profound impact of birth trauma on our lives and the power of speaking our truths. Tune in to hear Sarah's story and gain a deeper understanding of the complexities of motherhood in today's world.
