Listen "Episode 3: Healing Your Birth Story"
Episode Synopsis
When birth doesn’t go the way you hoped, it can leave behind a mess of emotions—grief, blame, unanswered questions. We replay the moments, search for what we could have done differently, and sometimes, we tuck it away, telling ourselves, it wasn’t that bad. I should just be grateful. But here’s the thing: if it felt like a big deal, it was a big deal. And finding peace with your birth isn’t about putting a silver lining on it—it’s about making space for the full truth of what happened, and how it felt. In this episode, I share: ✨ Why minimizing your feelings won’t make them go away (and what actually helps) ✨ The ways grief shows up after birth—and how to let yourself move through it ✨ The hidden stories we tell ourselves about our births (and why they keep us stuck) ✨ Practices to help shift your perspective without forcing yourself to feel differently ✨ A different way to hold your birth story—one that makes room for both the pain and the strength it took to get through it Some births stay with us longer than we expected. If yours still sits heavy in your body, this episode is for you.
