Women love to talk, but some subjects are just plain hard to share - even with your closest friends. That’s why Woman’s Hospital is pulling back the proverbial curtain on women’s most private concerns in a new podcast, UNprivate Parts, where listeners can hear from medical professionals and everyday women as they discuss honest topics like uncomfortable sadness after having a baby, painful sex, peeing a little when you sneeze, infertility, how life changes after cancer, menopause, weight loss, and more.
The first episode of UNprivate Parts is now available on podcast apps and online. Featuring WAFB personality Elizabeth Vowell as guest host, the first four episodes will cover topics that women experience during pregnancy and after childbirth. In the first episode - Baby Blues or More? - she has a conversation with Amber Parden, MD, a psychiatrist at Woman’s Hospital, about mental health issues that moms face, how to manage the many different emotions that follow giving birth, and how to know if they need support from a mental health professional.
The first four episodes will be released on Thursdays throughout the month of August. Other topics include breastfeeding, pregnancy loss, and body issues after baby.
Listeners can subscribe to UNprivate Parts on Apple, Spotify, Google, or wherever they listen to Podcasts, or find episodes online at womans.org/podcast. They can also stream the video version on a smart TV through the WAFB+ app.
