In this powerful episode of What is Public Health Podcast, we sit down with Nicole Hurd, a passionate advocate and entrepreneur who created the EmpowHer app after her own experience navigating the emotional challenges of postpartum life.
We explore how the app is addressing a long-overlooked public health crisis: the maternal mental health gap. From prenatal anxiety to postpartum depression, far too many mothers face these struggles in silence. Nicole shares her journey and how EmpowHer is building digital bridges to connection, self-care, and support.
In this conversation, we discuss:
- Why maternal mental health is a critical part of public health
- The inspiration behind the EmpowHer app
- How digital tools can support emotional well-being for new moms
- The power of peer connection and community during early motherhood
