Almost HALF of all women experience birth trauma. Today, I chat with Audrey Ross of A Joyful Birth about why this might be. Why is it so hard to trust our bodies when it comes to birth? Why are we as a society so scared of birth? How do we break free from the fear and step back into our innate womanly power? Audrey is a birthkeeper, educator of physiologic birth, and a mother. She went from a breech hospital birth with her first, to a homebirth with licensed midwives with her second baby, to a freebirth, and now she's currently journeying through a wild pregnancy (no medical intervention, no scans, etc.) and planning her second freebirth! Together we dive into: Why the hospital might NOT be the safest place to give birth (failure to progress, anyone?!) Pros and cons of homebirth with midwives How to protect yourself and your space in pregnancy and birth Audrey's choice of wild pregnancy and freebirth How to build trust in your body's ability to birth a healthy baby ------------------------- Connect with me on Instagram @carolineofenstein Shop my favorites on my Amazon storefront ------------------------- If you enjoyed this episode, please leave a rating and review!
