​This podcast is focused on the awareness of S.A.D. and the Perinatal and Postpartum period.  Mothers and pregnant people can be more sensitive to Seasonal Affective Disorder for many reasons:

• Hormonal Changes
• Sleep Deprivation and Fatigue
• Stress and Lifestyle Changes
• Reduced Sunlight Exposure
• Preexisting Mental Health Conditions

​Each person is differnt. Other factors can be confirmed with a professional health care provider. The point is to be aware, contact your medical team and have the best season ever!. 
-----------------------------------------
FOZA thanks you for your support in 2023, for coming on to a podcast as a  speaker, for sharing your ideas and your stories, thank you for volunteering and sharing the message and thank you for every effort you’ve made to help stop the silence, the stigma, the suicides, and the suffering, that can accompany postpartum depression.
​We hope each one of you will have a peaceful and relaxing holiday season and and the best New Year ever …
