Mama Outspoken; A Mom's Journey of Healing through a Pandemic Pregnancy, Birth Trauma, Postpartum Anxiety, Depression & Rage is the vulnerable tellings of a first time mom navigating the transition to motherhood. This story brings hope and comfort and encourages healing to moms through the sharing of the author's, Jill Olish, experience, transformation and healing journey. Jill shares about her religious trials which frames her birth story, and elaborates on the experiences of her and her husband during pregnancy, labor, delivery and postpartum.
The Covid-19 pandemic was at its height during Jill's pregnancy, impacting her decisions surrounding the birth of her first child and going back to work. Choosing to stay home with her son and start her own business, brought to light the struggles that families can experience when they are expanding.
Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders (PMADs) is the number one medical complication related to having a baby, and 1 in 5 women postpartum will experience a PMAD. Jill's story is just a small part of the efforts to break the silence and make sure that moms get the help they need. There is hope, and one will feel better and be well with help.
This book sits alongside the Mama Outspoken Village and podcast as another way to remember: you don’t have to heal alone.
