Hi, I'm Dr. Candice Wood.

I am a board-certified OB/GYN with added certification in perinatal mood disorders. I have loved treating women's health for 20 years. My journey has led me to focus the 2nd half of my career on women's mental health, an area that I feel is tragically undertreated.

My goal for this podcast is to create a space that is as safe as my clinic couch - a place to feel understood, motivated, and prepared to meet the challenges and find the beauty of parenthood. You don't have to lose yourself to be a good mother - in fact, finding yourself in motherhood will take you to degrees of joy you never imagined.
