Postpartum depression isn’t something I’ve only heard about—I’ve experienced the darkness of it myself.
After the birth of my first child, I found myself isolated, exhausted, overwhelmed, and wrestling with thoughts I never expected to have after receiving something I had prayed for. Looking back now, with years of healing and a surrendered relationship with Jesus, I see that season very differently.
In this episode, I share my personal postpartum testimony and my Christian perspective on the spiritual battle surrounding motherhood, intrusive thoughts, generational patterns, surrender, deliverance, justice, and the difference between simply knowing about Jesus and actually making Him Lord.
I also discuss the Lindsay Clancy case and wrestle with a difficult question: How do we hold compassion for severe postpartum suffering while still believing in accountability and justice?
And to the exhausted mother who feels like darkness is closing in: please don’t fight alone. Reach for help. Let someone carry the weight with you while you heal.
You were created for life.
You were created with purpose.
And darkness does not get the final word.
Rise up, woman of God. Remember who you are.
Note: This episode shares my personal testimony and Christian/spiritual beliefs. Postpartum depression and postpartum psychosis are serious medical conditions. Anyone experiencing thoughts of harming themselves or their baby should seek immediate professional/emergency help.
