37. Empowering Birth Stories!

What do you think of when you hear the word labor? If you’re anything like me, your first associations are probably horrible  scenes out of a movie with women screaming in pain. If you have scary associations with labor, it makes sense! That’s all that most of us have heard. But what if it isn’t necessarily true?In this special solo episode, I share my two birth stories, which were the most beautiful, empowering, embodied experiences of my life! Listen in to hear me share:Why my deep fear of needles pushed me to look into natural birthsHow conventional birth practices in the west have put doctors before mothersWhy feeling safe and empowered during birth can speed up labor and prevent complicationsThe resources that best supported me in having a natural, unmedicated birthBoth of my labor stories (and how my son was born in less than 2 hours)How my birth stories helped me heal the distrust I developed with my body through infertilityAnd so much more!Connect with Lauren:Follow me on Instagram or and head to my website to get 60+ free hormone healthy recipes, download my free Ebook, How to Boost Your Egg Quality, learn about my coaching programs and stay up to date on all my latest workshops and courses!Thank you so much for listening to the About Health and Hormones Podcast!
