Cynthia shares her story of the postpartum underworld after the birth of her first child, which includes a unique experience with postpartum psychosis... her spiritual awakening. A "bipolar diagnosis" in her 20's set her on a quest of becoming a student to health and fitness with the goal of not taking medication, but then the surprise pregnancy with her daughter was the catalyst for her accelerated spiritual growth. Cynthia could have become a victim to a "diagnosis" and could have stayed on meds for her entire life..... but she didn't. Instead she took responsibility for her health, her life, and motherhood, and now she thrives as a wise, mature mother... and I am lucky enough to have her in my life. 
Cynthia has offerings for women (especially mother's), in person, or online. Her instagram is @cynthiaspenla, her website is www.cynthiaspenla.com

Note: We mention Dr Kelly Brogan a few times in this podcast. Cynthia and I both love to learn from Kelly (her podcast is Reclamation Radio). Dr Kelly Brogan was a normal psychiatrist that prescribed anti-depressants to pregnant women until she learned the truth of science literature. She wrote a few books about the myths of big pharma meds and now dedicates her life to helping people NOT take these meds and take responsibility for their lives through a holistic lens of health.
