WE ARE NOT OKAY; A Discussion on Maternal Mental Health—with Karla Carlston
Nov 04, 2022 Season 2 Episode 9
Emily Stearman/Karla Carlston

Maternal mental health IS HEALTH.

⚠️CW: Talk of suicidal thoughts/ideations and intrusive thoughts ⚠️

On today’s episode, I sat down with Karla Carlston, CEO and founder of J.O.T. Journals. Karla’s mission is to get the tool of journaling into as many hands as possible.
Her own journey through postpartum anxiety/depression drove her to the creation of a journal that would show all the moments in life, even the difficult ones. 

Karla is a survivor of postpartum anxiety and depression, and wants others to know they don’t have to do it alone.
Find Karla and J.O.T. at Pinners Conference this weekend!

If you or someone you know is struggling with thoughts of suicide due to postpartum depression, please call or text 988 for help.
