    6 | Filipa Piedade - midwife, her own traumatic birth, changing the system from within

    Filipa Piedade became a midwife because of her own birth. And that birth was one of the hardest experiences of her life. Being a nurse, she thought she knew what to expect, but... she didn't. The birth of her daughter turned out to be traumatic. She had no idea that what happened to her had a name. That it wasn't her fault!But instead of just carrying that with her, she used it. She stepped back into the very system that had let her down, and she started changing it from the inside. One birth (plan) at a time. In this episode, Filipa also talks about what it really costs to be a midwife in Portugal. The impossible workload, the burnout, and the moment she finally said: no more.This is a story about turning your own wound into a reason to fight for others. About what happens when someone who has been invisible decides to make sure no one else ever has to feel that way again."I want every woman to feel like a goddess while giving birth to their child."Filipa Piedade: https://www.instagram.com/filipamaedaluz/Parto Consciente: https://www.instagram.com/partoconsciente_homebirth/Born to Be Wild: https://www.instagram.com/borntobewild.pt/ Birthmode: https://www.instagram.com/birthmode/
