About this listen

Laura Womack shares her powerful journey through postpartum depression following the birth of her second child. After struggling silently for two years while putting on a brave face for others, she found healing through an unexpected spiritual breakthrough that transformed her relationship with God and restored her joy.

Some highlights of our discussion:
• Experienced postpartum depression after her second child when circumstances were dramatically different from her first birth
• Forced to return to work just six weeks after giving birth when her husband lost his job
• Struggled with feelings of intense loneliness despite having a supportive husband and family
• Continued attending church and Bible studies but was "just going through the motions"
• Found healing through surrendering to God during a small group Bible study after nearly two years
• Learned valuable lessons about God's patience, love, and healing power through her experience
• Believes Christians should acknowledge mental health struggles and seek both spiritual and professional help

If you're struggling with postpartum depression or any mental health issue, don't wait to seek help. Reach out to God first, then find godly counselors and friends who can support your healing journey.
