Reset Podcast with Ash Cam
In this conversation with Ash Cam on the Reset Podcast, we explore what postnatal depression actually looks like beyond the stereotypes, including the subtle signs, the emotional shifts that often go unspoken, and why so many struggle to recognise what’s happening to them.
We talk about the nervous system, identity changes in early parenthood, and the impact of unrealistic expectations on parental mental health. This episode is for new parents, partners, and anyone wanting a more honest and compassionate understanding of postnatal depression, without shame, blame, or oversimplification.

Reset Podcast with Ash Cam
In this conversation with Ash Cam on the Reset Podcast, we explore parental guilt and why it shows up so strongly, especially for mothers navigating exhaustion, identity shifts, and impossible expectations.
We talk about how guilt is shaped by culture, comparison, and internalised “shoulds,” how it can quietly drive over-functioning and burnout, and what it looks like to meet guilt with compassion rather than self-criticism. This episode offers reassurance, perspective, and practical insight for parents who feel like they are constantly falling short, even when they are doing more than enough.
