Dr. Mona Amin is a pediatrician and parenting expert. But when she became a mom, everything she thought she knew was turned upside down. In this powerful episode, she shares her traumatic birth story, her son’s NICU and stroke diagnosis, her own ICU stay, and how motherhood forced her to stop doubting herself—and start trusting her intuition more than anything else.

• Why even the most “prepared” moms can face unexpected trauma after birth
• How to recognize and reclaim your maternal intuition, even when no one else listens
• What reparenting yourself really looks like—and how it helps you show up for your kids
