27. Tully (2018): Parenting Exhaustion, Postpartum Depression, Hiring a 'Night Nanny', and Supporting Other Movie Moms!
On this episode Rick and Kailah are joined by special guest host, Staci Belanger, LMSW. Staci brings her specialty in parenting, pregnancy, and infant mental health as we dive into the 2018 film, 'Tully' starring Charlize Theron. We talk about themes of parenting exhaustion, sleep deprivation, and postpartum depression. [SPOILER TALK from 45:35 to 52:18] Plus, we talk about the positives of hiring a night nanny (imagine waking up to a clean house and freshly baked cupcakes every morning!!) Finally, we present Staci with several character case studies of some classic movie moms in need of support! Whether you have children or not, this episode has something for you!
