Glow Up And Speak Out

What does a doula actually do, and why does it matter so much? In this episode, Alex sits down with Erica Manto Paulson, certified Doula + the Founder and CEO of Nurture, to break down the real role of a doula and how it’s completely different from a midwife or an OB. With nearly two decades of experience supporting over 1,000 births, Erica shares the research-backed truth: having a doula can significantly improve outcomes in any kind of birth. They also get a little deeper into the power of birth stories, why your experience stays with you for life, and how sharing it can impact generations of women to come. This is a conversation about support, agency, and why no woman should go through birth feeling alone!Connect with Erica at Nurture: www.welcometonurture.comFollow Nurture on IG: @nurturecincyFollow "Glow Up And Speak Out" on IG: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@glowupandspeakout⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Shop Alex’s faves in beauty and wellness on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ShopMy⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.Subscribe to our newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ HERE!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Links and Discounts!Prolon: Tap the link below for 15% off your 5-day nutrition kit to get ALL of the benefits of fasting (including cell autophagy) - while still eating!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://partners.prolonlife.com/ALEXANDRAFERRARA⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Plant People: For 15% off any doctor-formulated supplement, enter code: GLOWUP at checkout.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.plantpeople.co⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Fatty15: Click the link below for 20% off your Fatty15 Starter Kit 90-Day Supply of supplements for healthy aging.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FATTY15 + GLOWUP⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠K.

Brittany also details what went into her decision to have two home births, the care team that supported her, and the inspiration behind her platform Ode to Us, which takes a holistic approach to motherhood through community, storytelling, and apparel centered on women of color.Connect with Brittany: @brittanycdandyConnect with Ode To Us: @odetouswellness Follow "Glow Up And Speak Out" on IG: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@glowupandspeakout⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Shop Alex’s faves in beauty and wellness on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ShopMy⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.Subscribe to our newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ HERE!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Links and Discounts!Prolon: Tap the link below for 15% off your 5-day nutrition kit to get ALL of the benefits of fasting (including cell autophagy) - while still eating!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://partners.prolonlife.com/ALEXANDRAFERRARA⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Plant People: For 15% off any doctor-formulated supplement, enter code: GLOWUP at checkout.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.plantpeople.co⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Fatty15: Click the link below for 20% off your Fatty15 Starter Kit 90-Day Supply of supplements for healthy aging.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FATTY15 + GLOWUP⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠K.

Culina Health takes health insurance (which is super rare when looking for a nutritionist!), AND the registered dietitians go far beyond just giving healthy meal ideas; they are actually willing to get into the nitty gritty of YOUR specific schedule to support you in WHEN and HOW you prepare your meals. Tamar details her mission to bridge the nutrition information gap, explains why Culina Health is so unique in breaking down traditional barriers to quality dietetic care, and shares how her own relationship with food has changed since both founding Culina Health and becoming a mother. Tamar is a registered dietitian with over a decade of experience coordinating care and collaborating with healthcare providers, health systems, and medical organizations and is dedicated to bridging the gap between nutrition care and traditional medicine. Tamar earned her master's in clinical nutrition from New York University and completed her clinical training at The Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City. Recognized as one of New York City’s top holistic dietitians by Well+Good, Tamar is a sought-after speaker and thought leader, having recently addressed the Association of Black Gastroenterologists and Hepatologists (ABGH).

This week, we’re revisiting an important interview with Dr. Michele B. Goodwin from earlier this year that’s really worth a second listen. Alex sits down with Dr. Goodwin to walk us through the history of American laws restricting reproductive rights for women, from involuntary reproductive servitude in the times of slavery to denying pregnant women access to life-saving healthcare today. Dr. Michele B. Goodwin is an acclaimed bioethicist, constitutional law scholar, prolific author, and law professor at Georgetown Law School. She serves on the executive committee and national board of the American Constitution Society and previously on the executive committee of the ACLU, and she was the first woman to be elected Secretary General of the International Academy of Law & Mental Health. She is the author/editor of six books, including “Policing The Womb: Invisible Women and the Criminalization of Motherhood.” She ranks among the most cited professors in the field of bioethics, and is a sought after public commentator, having been featured in print, radio, and television news. Dr. Goodwin is also the Executive Producer for Ms. Studios, and host of the podcast “On The Issues with Michele Goodwin.” Connect With Michele: @michelebgoodwin Follow the Center For Reproductive Rights: @reprorights Follow "Glow Up And Speak Out" on IG: ⁠⁠⁠@glowupandspeakout⁠⁠⁠ Subscribe to our newsletter HERE!  Take Advantage Of Our Discounts!
