Quiet Confession Ep. 1: Real Talk - My Quiet Confession Begins
Manage episode 485622240 series 3584857
In this raw solo mini-episode, Chelsea introduces Quiet Confessions, a new weekly mini-series where they share unfiltered updates from their own journey through parenthood, mental health challenges, and chronic illness.
🎧 In this episode, Chelsea talks about:
- Transitioning to a new psychiatrist and navigating complex medication management.
- The interconnected messiness of mental and physical health.
- Living with PMADs, a ruptured pituitary tumor, POTS, and the realities of being a disabled stay-at-home parent.
- How their postpartum experience never really ended—and why that matters.
- The invisible load of chronic illness and why support systems make all the difference.
This episode isn’t polished. It’s not rehearsed. But it’s real, honest, and straight from the heart—recorded on the go, just like parenthood itself.
💬 Chelsea says: “Quiet Confessions is gonna be my time. I don’t know how I got here from telling you I’m meeting with a psychiatrist—but I guess that’s the point.”
