DENVER — Being a new mom is hard enough, but try doing it during a global pandemic. That’s what happened to Daily Blast Live host Sam Schacher, who returned to work recently after spending her maternity leave in quarantine during the height of COVID-19.
She discussed this, as well as postpartum depression and expanding her family to two kids, on the June 18 edition of “It Takes a Village" on 9NEWS Mornings.
“It Takes a Village” is a community for new moms to discuss the challenges and successes that comes with raising a family, with Morning Show Anchor Corey Rose sharing some of her personal experiences.
Schacher is a mom to Sophie and Miles. Before joining Denver-based DBL, Schacher – a broadcast journalist – worked on-air for CNN and also cohosted Dr. Drew on Call on HLN.
She also hosted and produced the popular internet show Pop Trigger for the Young Turks.
