The One About Postpartum Depression, Race, & Dancing Again with Anupa King
Ep. 78
•
Anupa King also known as @denupzter on Instagram, I have followed and adored for years. Then, a year ago we were both a part of the same Life After Birth exhibit where I heard Anupa share her story about postpartum depression for the first time. The room that listened to Anupa speak was silent, and with eyes welled with tears. This was the kind of story we hadn’t really heard before about postpartum. Anupa opens up about her infertility, her losses, her postpartum and even how she was mistaken as the nanny to her own children and into her message of hope, fight, and dancing.
Follow Anupa at @denupzter on Instagram today to follow her and her journey alongside her family.
