From modeling to motherhood, and the unexpected Battle with PPD/PPA in between with Adrianna Bach
In this deeply vulnerable episode, model and mama Adrianna Bach opens up about her powerful journey through severe postpartum depression and anxiety after the birth of her first child. What began with breastfeeding struggles quickly spiraled into feelings of isolation - especially within mom groups that pushed the “breastfeeding at all costs” narrative. Adrianna candidly shares the mental and emotional toll of PPD, the stigma that kept her in a cycle of shame and guilt, and the pivotal moment that led her to seek support through SSRIs. She also talks about the process of weaning off medication and how she redefined self-care from the inside out.
We explore the unspoken challenges of motherhood - from the pressure to breastfeed and shifting body image, to the invisible mental load and the exhausting trap of milestone comparisons. Plus, we dive into the power of mom communities and why finding the right one can make all the difference.This episode is a must-listen for anyone navigating the messy, beautiful, and complex experience of motherhood.
