Daisy takes us on her personal journey of maternity and mental health, sharing how writing has evolved into her therapeutic outlet. She sheds light on the importance of maternal mental health - a topic often overlooked yet so crucial, affecting not only mothers but also their children and loved ones. Daisy's mission is to elevate the conversation around maternal mental health, a leading cause of maternal mortality in the UK.
On the subject of body positivity, Daisy shares the inspiration behind her children's book, "What About My Tommy Mummy?" A result of her struggle to find body-positive literature for her children, Daisy's book fills this void, teaching young minds to love and appreciate their bodies.
This episode is a clarion call to all who wish to better understand motherhood's realities, the importance of mental health, and the power of the written word. Let's listen, learn, and let Daisy's journey inspire us all.
