BIO:

Diana Curiel Bamford, known as Di, is a Maternal Mental Health Advocate, Certified Peer Support Specialist, Postpartum Energy Therapist, and Certified Yoga Instructor in Fallbrook, CA. A survivor of severe Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders (PMADs), she's a dedicated board member with Thrive Wellness Collective and member and volunteer with The Postpartum Health Alliance.

After 13 years as an Executive Assistant, Di left her job in 2019 to raise awareness about PMADs, which affect an estimated 1 in 5 women in the U.S. She noticed a significant lack of understanding about PMADs among medical providers and those interacting with prenatal and postnatal parents. To combat this, Di offers PMADs awareness presentations in her community and is currently collaborating with nursing students at CalState San Marcos. She's also writing a book about her postpartum experience, further demonstrating her commitment to improving maternal mental health and supporting those struggling with PMADs.
