When you show up for yourself, you show up for others and you give them permission to be able to be transparent and be like. And I think if I didn't get every single kick in the ass that I did get, and probably the kicks in the ass that I will continue to get throughout my life, I won't learn what I need to learn, because I learn in the struggle, right.
Picture this: You're a new mom, basking in the joy of your newborn, yet feeling an inexplicable sadness. This is the reality Ali Levine faced, and in this episode of 'Showing Up', she opens up about her struggle with postpartum depression. Known for her presence on Bravo’s 'Stripped', Ali seemed to have it all, but behind the scenes, she was grappling with emotions she couldn’t understand.
She shares her story with host Asher Gottesman, who himself is no stranger to the challenges of parenting as a father of five. Ali’s candid conversation covers the unexpected emotional lows that came after her daughter Amelia Rei's birth. She dives into how therapy, mental exercises, and meditation became her lifelines, helping her navigate through the fog of postpartum depression.
Ali and Asher discuss the pressures of parenthood, the damaging effects of parent shaming, and the constant comparison game that many parents find themselves trapped in. One of the key takeaways from their chat is the importance of self-care. Ali emphasizes that taking care of yourself is not just a luxury but a necessity for being a better parent.
Asher echoes this sentiment, sharing his own experiences and insights into maintaining a routine and showing up for oneself, even when life seems to be going smoothly. The episode isn’t just for parents; it’s for anyone who’s ever felt overwhelmed by life's challenges. Ali's journey reminds us that it’s okay to struggle and that seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness.
Whether you’re dealing with postpartum depression or any other hurdle, Ali’s story is a beacon of hope, showing that with the right tools and support, you can come out stronger on the other side. Join Ali and Asher for a heartfelt discussion that’s as informative as it is inspiring. You’ll walk away with a deeper understanding of the importance of showing up for yourself so you can show up for those you love.
