Maternal Health Chat with Kelly Rodriguez, LMFT
Not only is May Mental Health Month, but it is also Maternal Mental Health Month, a topic we need to talk so much more about. With that said, this week we are joined by Kelly Rodriguez, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Certified Perinatal Mental Health specialist based in California. Kelly, Emily, and Ashley talk about how your mental health can change from pregnancy to the first few weeks after birth (the perinatal period), and into postpartum and parenthood. Kelly shares her own post birth story and her experience as a therapist helping women navigate this new chapter in their lives. We also talk about risk factors and warning signs that you, your partner, and support system can be aware of during pregnancy and postpartum. We share tips and coping strategies and you can find more resources below and on our Instagram, @BecauseWeWentToTherapy. Please note: there is an issue with the audio sound quality for the first few minutes, but after the intros it is resolved!

Decoding Family & Couples Therapy with therapists Leeor Gal and Annalise Maull
Today we are joined by Leeor Gal (LMFT) and Annalise Maull (MFT), to break down couples and family therapy. Entering therapy with another person or persons can be very intimidating - and extremely beneficial. We go over questions like, is it ever "too soon" to attend couple's therapy, how do you navigate a couple or family situation where one person does not want to be there or find value in the therapeutic work, how much of our issues are rooted in the way we communicate, and when is family therapy helpful. We discuss how it can be helpful in navigating relationships with your in-laws, family conflicts, generational trauma.

Deep-Diving on Generational Trauma
Emily and Ashley are discussing the book "It Didn't Start With You" by Mark Wolynn. They discuss how trauma can affect multiple generations within a family, both on a behavioral and genetic level. So much suffering starts with trauma and the trauma of our ancestors was and often is seen as too taboo of a subject to be talked about within our families and communities, which only perpetuates the cycles. Generational trauma includes (but is certainly not limited to) sexual abuse, physical abuse, substance abuse, war, genocide, incarceration, discrimination, and racism. We discuss the 'nature vs. nurture’ viewpoint, as well as the science behind trauma genetically changing our DNA. We also touch on someone's decision to have kids and work on breaking the cycles of trauma, and also respecting those whose choice is to be child-free. Whether or not you decide to have children, you are worth doing the work to heal and break generational cycles. ***Content Warning: Sexual Abuse is discussed in this podcast.
