<p>Psychologist, author and mum of three <strong>Dr. Clodagh Campbell</strong> joins Dominique this week, for one of the most personal conversations of the season.</p><p>Dominique and Clodagh share powerful parallels in their lives. Both are adopted. Both lost their beloved fathers too early.</p><p>Together they explore how adoption can shape identity across a lifetime and why questions around belonging often become louder once we become parents ourselves.</p><p>Clodagh also opens up about her experience with postnatal depression. As a psychologist, she didn’t initially recognise the signs in herself. It arrived slowly and quietly, and by the time she realised what was happening she was already struggling.</p><p>The conversation also explores the nervous system, maternal exhaustion, the invisible cognitive load many parents carry and why small moments of awareness can make such a difference in our busy lives.</p><p><em>IMAGE The Motherload is powered by Peugeot, and sponsored by Liffey Valley, Avoca, Revive Active, Aptamil Advanced and Tigers Childcare</em></p><p><br /></p>
