On today’s episode, we’re sitting down with Dr. Jessica Vernon, a NYC based Board-Certified OB/GYN. She serves as the Membership & Professional Outreach Chair on PSI’s Board of Directors, and is a published author of a brand new book, “Then Comes Baby” (seriously - click on the link in the show notes & go get yourself a copy). Today, we’ll chat all about matrescence, the importance of speaking about the unspoken aspects of parenthood, & debunking the fallacy that parents are supposed to effortlessly do it all. Dr. Vernon is not just Perinatal Mental Health-Certified; we can certify that she is an incredible advocate for folks in the perinatal period, and we can’t wait for you to hear from her! So without any further ado, please sit back, relax, and enjoy this episode with our friend, Dr. Vernon.
