Beyond Survival in the Fourth Trimester with Jerusha Hull

On Perspectively Yours this week we sit down with Jerusha Hull, a licensed clinical social worker in perinatal mental health. We get the scoop on the challenges of the fourth trimester for first time and seasoned mothers, including identity shifts, physical recovery, and emotional adjustments. The aim of this conversation is to normalize the challenges of motherhood and encourage new parents to seek help and express their needs.
