My client asked me in such a doting way, "Have you always loved babies this much?"
And I told her the truth.
"No, I've only loved them since I healed my heart and mind from postpartum depression. Each new baby in my care is a chance to fill in for the time I lost with my own little ones."
She looked at me with such empathy, such gratitude.
In this work, I don't just get to support families and make sure they don't experience the same turmoil that I went through, but I also get to heal a part of my soul that was broken for so long.
In a way, I get redemption.
