  • Postpartum Mental Health & Sleep: How Better Rest Builds a Stronger Family with Chrissy Lawler Ep. 141
    2026/10/28

    The first year postpartum can feel like a blur of sleepless nights, emotional highs and lows, and shifting dynamics at home — but what if better sleep and stronger mental health actually go hand in hand? Today we're joined by Chrissy Lawler, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with more than 17 years of experience and a mom of 4 girls, who realized firsthand just how much good sleep impacts the entire family system. She's since helped more than 500,000 families worldwide get better sleep and better mental health in a way that actually works for real life.

    What You'll Learn

    In this episode, Chrissy breaks down the key aspects of postpartum mental health that most affect a family's sleep, communication, and bonding during that critical first year. She shares practical, evidence-based strategies for improving sleep for the whole family — without sacrificing maternal mental health in the process. We also talk through how couples can communicate about emotional needs and parenting duties in ways that reduce conflict and actually deepen connection during postpartum. Chrissy explains the role community, peer support, and professional care play in building long-term resilience, and how to know when it's time to seek extra help. Finally, she shares small daily practices and rituals parents can adopt to support emotional recovery, stronger attachment, and lasting joy at home.

  • Beyond the Baby Blues: How Ketamine Can Support Postpartum Depression with Gena Kosmides from The Mood Center Ep 140
    2026/10/14
    This Episode is brought to you by Lovebug Probiotics. October is National Depression and Mental Health Screening Month, a good reminder that postpartum depression is common, treatable, and nothing to face alone. For moms who haven't found relief with traditional treatment, newer options like ketamine are part of a growing conversation. Today we're joined by Gena Kosmides, MSN, RN, CRNP-PMH, a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner with extensive experience in ketamine therapy and SPRAVATO® (esketamine) treatment at The Mood Center, with locations in Annapolis and Columbia, Maryland. Her expertise includes caring for adults with treatment-resistant depression, and her broader psychiatric experience includes anxiety, OCD, PTSD, postpartum depression, and other mental health conditions.What You'll LearnIn this episode, Gena shares her background and what her work looks like day to day, then starts with the basics: what ketamine is and how it's used in mental health care. We talk through how ketamine may help treat postpartum depression and its symptoms, who might be a good candidate for treatment, and what to know about safety for breastfeeding parents. Gena also explains how ketamine compares to traditional antidepressants for postpartum depression, and breaks down the difference between mail-order ketamine therapy and treatment in a clinical setting. She closes with additional tips and recommendations for moms navigating their mental health, whether you're considering treatment for yourself or supporting someone you love.This episode is for informational purposes only and is not medical advice. Talk with your healthcare provider about what's right for you.
