Motherhood is not smooth for most women, despite the picture-perfect image projected on social media. But, what if your postpartum depression gets so bad that you find yourself lost at sea (metaphorically) without anybody advocating for you?

Described as "a long overdue reality check" by Oprah Daily, Sarah Hoover's new book "The Motherload" is a motherhood memoir that dares to ask what happens when “what to expect when you’re expecting” turns out to be months of rage, anguish, brain fog and a total surrender of sex, career, and identity.

On this weeks episode of In All Honesty, Michelle and Sarah discuss the unrealistic expectations of motherhood set by society, Sarah's feelings of loneliness and shame during early motherhood, and the importance of therapy in recovery. The conversation also touches on the complex dynamics between mothers and daughters, and the need for trauma-informed care in medical settings.
