More about Giselle: Giselle is a first-generation American with
Dominican roots, who's also a new mom learning how to navigate
that world while unpacking her own childhood (generational)
trauma, and finding her balance as a new "working mom" with a
17th month old toddler, that just came out of a severe PPD
experience. This experience has led her to start her own podcast
called the "What's New, Mama? Podcast", because she hopes that by
sharing her experience, alongside her sis-in-law, Amy, that it
can help another Mama out there feel less alone and more
understood. Her podcast can be found on her website and/or
Spotify, Apple, Amazon, and Youtube with new episodes every
