S02E05 with Amanda Raphael on breathing consciously, Hampsted Heath, childbirth and more...

In my conversation with Amanda Raphael, she shares stories about her growing up in Yorkshire and her deep love of nature. At 17 she became a model and traveled the world for several years. Soon after, Amanda met and married her husband, and gave birth to their two children.  Amanda shares how difficult her first birth experience was and how she became determined to have a very different birth experience with her second child.  Her birth experiences spurred her great interest in childbirth which led her to write her PhD thesis on the history of natural childbirth in the UK. Amanda is a certified doula who uses numerous modalities...intentional breathing, sound baths, drumming and more to facilitate the best possible birth experiences for the women she assists. I know you're going to love this conversation! Check us out on IG https://www.instagram.com/stories/pearl.concierge.services/3199191970085468283/?hl=en
