Hi, I’m Chelsea Myers (they/them) — a nonbinary stay-at-home parent of two, Blue Dot Ambassador, PSI Peer Support Group Facilitator, and the creator of Quiet Connection: Postpartum Mental Health Podcast. My journey into parenthood was far from easy. I experienced birth trauma, a postpartum hemorrhage, and multiple severe perinatal mood and anxiety disorders (PMADs). During my darkest moments, I felt completely alone — like no one truly understood what I was going through. That isolation nearly broke me. Quiet Connection was born from that trauma, and from a deep desire to make sure other parents and caregivers never have to feel as alone as I did. This community is a safe, judgment-free space for honest conversations about the realities of postpartum mental health, birth trauma, infertility, loss, and so much more. It's a place where stories matter — where people are heard, validated, and supported. I’m a born-and-raised Vermonter (even though I hate the snow), and I’m endlessly grateful for the growing global community surrounding this project. Together, we're breaking the silence, reducing shame, and making space for healing — one story at a time. Thank you for being here. You are not alone.
