"You’re supposed to be happy." That’s what Isabelle kept hearing when she was pregnant. Married, financially stable, expecting a deeply wanted baby — her life looked “perfect” from the outside. But inside, she was fighting an overwhelming darkness that few people talk about: antepartum depression, or depression during pregnancy.
In this honest and powerful conversation, Isabelle joins Terry and Bridget to share what it felt like to struggle mentally during what’s often painted as the most joyful time in a person’s life. From navigating stigma to managing daily symptoms and finding tools that help her cope years later, Isabelle gives voice to an often-silenced part of the maternal mental health journey.
Whether you've experienced depression yourself, love someone who has, or want to better understand the emotional complexities of pregnancy, this episode offers insight, compassion, and a reminder that you are not alone.
