Hi, I’m Chelsea Myers (they/them) — a nonbinary stay-at-home parent of two, Blue Dot Ambassador, PSI Peer Support Group Facilitator and Peer Mentor, 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 mental health disorders (PMHDs). 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 perinatal 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.
