In this episode back, after an almost 9 month hiatus from podcasting, I explore my experience birthing a human. The big tears of overwhelm and joy shed in the postpartum period, as well as my feelings around the often bullshit narratives around motherhood. In this episode I explore:
- The humility and surrender that I experienced both with birth and new motherhood
- Embracing the total unknown and liminal spaces between
- Women stepping fully into their power and not overriding their deep intuitive knowing
- The deep feminine wounding that still continues to play out amongst mothers (Insert judgment and shaming)
- Gifting yourself compassion and forgiveness as a new mom
- The death of self and your old identity and how it's not linear
- My big feelings on privilege and resources in this country for new parents
- The desperate need for more postpartum care for families
- The overwhelming amount of opinions when you become pregnant and then have the child
- The impact of having a baby on your relationship
- A deep and wild connection to the life cycle
