A Breath of Fresh Air: Isaac's Story of Resilience and Recovery

When you said you had postpartum depression really bad, on top of everything that you had, a lot of people, myself included, until I got married and had kids of my own, I didn't understand what that meant.
Imagine growing up in a world where chaos and neglect are your daily companions. In this episode of MY Voice, we dive into the life of Isaac Smuldam, a long-time client of MY House. Isaac sits down with Mike Sisson to share her gripping journey through substance abuse and a turbulent family life. From a young age, Isaac faced immense challenges, including a mother battling alcoholism and a father whose drinking often led to violent confrontations.
Despite these hardships, she sought a fresh start by moving to Nome, Alaska, only to find herself ensnared by old habits and struggling with postpartum depression. This episode doesn’t just recount Isaac’s struggles; it also highlights her resilience. She talks about breaking free from toxic relationships and finding the strength to move forward positively. The MY House Podcast Network provides a compassionate space for individuals like Isaac to share their stories without fear of judgment.
Tune in to hear Isaac's powerful narrative and stay tuned for Part 2 of her journey in the next episode.
