Motherhood and Mental Health: A New Mom's Perspective

  • Summary

  • In this episode, you - the audience - meet Paula-Kaye Taylor, a first-time newborn mom, who, at the time of recording, was on the last days of her 3-months maternity leave as is customary in Jamaica.

    Paula, a previous client of Simeca's shares how much her life has changed and emphasises the need to not forget herself as a new-born mom. Yes, she loves and adores her baby and cares for her husband, but caring for herself as an individual is also crucial.

    She tells us about jumping at the opportunity to go out to brunch and not be self-identified as 'mommy mommy mommy' for a brief moment without feeling too much 'mom-guilt'. Additionally, she shares with Simeca how her vocal register as a singer changed due to her pregnancy, and what that meant for her.

    The conversation might trigger tears for moms who have gone through or are going through their own-journey. So, keep those tissues close-by!
