At a time where there were no parental resources for mothers let alone fathers, Jane Honikman, became a leader of the social movement to promote the emotional wellbeing of parents and their families through her work with Postpartum Education for Parents (PEP) in the 1970s and the founding of Postpartum Support International (PSI) in 1987. She has written several books on the topic and continues to lecture and train internationally on the role of social support and the emotional health of families. In 2015, Jane co-founded the Parental Action Institute with the mission to energize and revitalize professionals and parent advocates in order to support new families.
This conversation explores the importance of honest communication, creating supportive communities, addressing gender stereotypes, the role of grandparents, understanding men's issues, the foreverness of postpartum, navigating grandparenthood, supporting grandparents raising grandchildren, the role of grandfathers, supporting grandparents in challenges and decisions, and the journey of parenthood.
