Healing the Tigress
A podcast that focuses on conversations & stories around Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) maternal mental health, hosted by Taiwanese American mothers Peggy (LCSW, PMH-C) & Jasmine (PharmD, PMH-C) who are also postpartum depression and postpartum anxiety survivors.
Mental health is not talked about enough in our AAPI communities, and we want to break these stigmas especially for mothers and partners. As AAPI healthcare providers who personally struggled during postpartum and are now perinatal mental health certified, we want to see more representation of other AAPI parents who know how important it is to take care of our mental health.
We talk with AAPI guests about a variety of themes in mental health and parenting, particularly what that looks like through the lens of our culture within the Western world. There are also discussions with professionals in the field, to help our providers and allies. We're not afraid to talk about the hard things that might seem taboo. We hope this podcast reminds you that you are not alone in your struggles as an AAPI parent!

Healing the Tigress Bonus Episodes
Exclusive access to bonus episodes!In this bonus episode, we are diving into all the cycle-breaking themes and mental health lessons from the record-breaking summer blockbuster – K-Pop Demon Hunters! We know there have been lots of breakdowns and analyses of the movie, but as Asian American moms and women who have passion in working with mental health, we really wanted to nerd out over what we gleaned from this movie. (And if you know how hard we nerd out over mental health stuff, we think you'll like this episode. 😉)
Jasmine shares how she got Netflix just to watch the movie (after an 8 year hiatus!) and what her daughter surprisingly picked up from the movie. We also talk about how to talk about how to bring up some of these things to younger kids. Peggy talks about some lessons she has gone over with her clients and actually how some of the themes are pertinent to perinatal mental health disorders! Join us for an AAPI-mom analysis of the movie in the lens of parenting and perinatal mental health!
***Please be aware that if you haven't watched the movie, there will be spoilers on what happens in the movie.***
