Commonly called postpartum depression but more accurately referred to as postpartum disorder. It's regularly misunderstood as simple depression but runs the gamut from anxiety to psychosis. Mothers who suffer from this are routinely judged and accused of being a bad parent. We are unable to control our hormones and chemicals that balance us every day. Pregnancy causes an extreme shift in a woman's body which creates havoc for her emotions and mental stability. My guests speak about their struggles, the shame they endured and how this topic is definitely on the peripheral. Read more »

The host is terrific
I'm a long time fan of The Generation Why Podcast. Excited that Justin was starting his own show focused on stories from listeners and those who have lived through shocking, disturbing, interesting or tragic things.
The Peripheral is a GREAT show. He strikes just the right tone with his guests.

My New Addiction
I stumbled upon Generation Why by accident and have listened to almost all of the episodes. When Justin announced he was doing a more listener centered podcast driven by people's stories, I wasn't sure how I would like it, but I have to say, it is my new favorite! He strikes a great rapport with his guests and does a phenomenal job of listening, asking questions and empathizing. Thank you for this remarkable podcast, Justin!

Trusted, responsible and fascinating host
Justin knows exactly how to tell a compelling story without exploiting the teller. His compassion and emotional intelligence know no bounds. I'd trust him with any story I wanted to tell, and I'd listen to any story he wanted to share.

This is not like any other podcast you have heard
I'm sure you have not heard another podcast like this. Justin takes on the hard topics and puts a voice to them. They aren't just "something" that happens, but a story that happens to real people and really affects their lives.

Raw and real
you may not agree with all the guests but it will give you an inside look into addiction, mental illness.. i could go on. Some episodes are very hard to listen to because the content can get dark.
