37: The Lie of the Perfect Mother Will Not Prevail (Postpartum with Kieley Beaudry)

PARENTING & CANNABIS II
-
Is it true that moms must be good — but will never be good enough?
More women are turning to cannabis to help in the challenging,
early stages of motherhood. Signs of depression or an anxiety
disorder may appear within the first year after birth and can last
for months or even years. These signs include feelings of sadness,
worry, and fatigue.* If cannabis helps mothers feel balanced, then
how do we change the discussions about mothers using cannabis so
it's no longer a taboo. How long will this take? The perfect mother
does not exist but the right solution for her might be within
reach. Kieley Beaudry—co-founder of Parkland Flower and the
Founder, President of the Alberta Cannabis Micro License
Association shares her story - on The Dopist with Nicolle
Hodges.

The Dopist is a weekly podcast that puts cannabis at the center of
deep dialogue with experts, to help you navigate this new
industry—and beyond. Host Nicolle Hodges brings on guests each week
to dissect the world of cannabis. Follow @thedopist on Instagram,
