Description

Today I chat with Anne Marie Williams, host of the Postpartum On Purpose Podcast, to bring light to something that so many postpartum moms experience but are terrified to acknowledge. Intrusive thoughts, scary thoughts that are persistent, consistent, and insistent, can make us scared of our own selves, afraid to be alone with our thoughts, and bring us to question our own character and goodness. Anne Marie breaks open this topic, revealing the origins of these thoughts and how to handle them.
