Midwifery as a Spiritual Practice

Description
I’ve been meaning to record this for a while but the timing is perfect because our own lives always get reflected in our midwifery work. In this podcast, I share my journey of spirituality from mindfulness to learning under a local shaman. I’m realizing more with each client and each experience that engaging in the emotional and spiritual aspects of pregnancy, birth and mothering is where my heart is.

Also, our offering of virtual prenatals (or virtual visits for any time!) can be found at: https://indiebirth.org/virtual-prenatals.
