Here again is Kristina Ledlow, our Queen, on behalf of the amazing Bronson Health Foundation. Kristina and everyone who is familiar with GOOD MOMS Have Scary Thoughts, knows this is not about promotion. It's about wanting to get this little book into the hands of every new mom for much needed support and information.

FYI - At the PPSC, our GOOD MOMS Project is a hospital-based initiative designed to ensure every birthing parent receives emotional support at discharge. Aligned with the Joint Commission’s perinatal care mandate for comprehensive discharge planning, this project proposes that each patient receive a copy of Good Moms Have Scary Thoughts - a therapeutically-informed, illustrated guide that normalizes scary thoughts, encourages self-compassion, and offers actionable steps toward postpartum emotional wellness.

Your hospital can join a national movement to prioritize maternal mental health by offering a copy Good Moms Have Scary Thoughts at discharge.

Let us know if you are interested in making this happen at your institution. Email training@postpartumstress.com
