Breaking Postpartum Taboos: Elisabeth Schellekens on Motherhood, Mental Health, and Fatherhood Engagement

Welcome to another enlightening episode of the "I Am Dad" podcast! Today, we are thrilled to have Elisabeth (SCALE-LA-KINS) Schellekens, the visionary founder of Elle’s Corner, join us. Elisabeth is a passionate Motherhood and Mental Health Counselor dedicated to revolutionizing the way we approach postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, and maternal mental health as a whole.

Drawing from her own personal journey with a difficult pregnancy and severe postpartum depression, Elisabeth has created a supportive community and powerful resources that help mothers build resilience and thrive. As an advocate for dismantling the taboos around mental health, she is leading the charge to make mental health care as accessible and routine as a dental checkup, starting as early as high school.

Today, we’ll explore Elisabeth’s journey, her groundbreaking work with Elle’s Corner, and her mission to ensure no mother feels alone in her postpartum experience. Please join me in welcoming the inspiring Elisabeth Schellekens to the "I Am Dad" podcast.
