This week we’re speaking with friend of the pod (and previous guest!) Ayana Lage)! Ayana is a lifestyle blogger and freelance writer based in Tampa, Florida. She writes about motherhood, mental health, social justice, and everyday life, and she published a story titled, “Postpartum Psychosis Landed Me in a Psychiatric Ward for 17 Days. Now, I’m Ready to Share My Story).” for Cosmo in April 2023, and we’re excited to talk about her experience with her today!
