Amy discusses the pressures of external expectations and the emotional toll of fertility struggles. She delves into the often unspoken struggles surrounding pregnancy, parenthood, and mental health. Is it still taboo to discuss the emotional toll of miscarriages, the weight of societal expectations on women, and the challenges of postpartum experiences, including anxiety and intrusive thoughts? Amy shares her personal journey of navigating these issues, the importance of open communication with partners, and the transformative power of letting go of control.
