Chelsea Atkinson is the mother of 3 and an esthetician at Aesthetic Artistry Laser Center. In this episode she shared her birth journeys and challenges. Chelsea’s 3 pregnancies have each been very different, and she has navigated multiple medical complications of pregnancy, and challenges with breastfeeding, all while managing her personal journey with depression and anxiety.
In this episode she shares how she has powered through, grown emotionally, and learned to advocate for herself and her children. Along the way she has learned what she is made of and shocked even herself in her pursuit of her own inner strength and determination.
Chelsea bares it all in this episode in her desire to heal through sharing as well as validate and inspire other mothers on a similar journey.
