I’ve been in the birth world for 7 years and 5 of those years have been helping women prepare for and experience a peaceful birth.

The fear of birth can be overwhelming to a lot of women. We have been surrounded by this theme of rushed and traumatized stories of women having babies. This doesn't have to be your story! A common theme I have seen is women who have the most beautiful and blissful birth experiences are those who went in with little to no fear! They have taken control of their thoughts, their actions and their beliefs about birth!
Today I give you my 3 step framework that will take you from fearful to powerful! Let's hope into the show.

I so enjoyed my interview with Bri Dettmer. Bri is starting her fertility journey and it's been so fun to see how her views of birth have changed since I've known her. In this interview we talk about the power I woman has but a lot of time doesn't use, how she has worked to reduce fear of childbirth even before starting to conceive and so much more!
If you're a first time mom you're not going to want to miss this interview. It will encourage you and empower you to find your voice and expect the best from your birth experience!

Part of my mission here at The Empowered Birth Podcast is to help you normalize the birth process. Unfortunately we are briefly taught what to expect in health class watching a baby be born and maybe during our hospital birth course. That’s not really enough. Normalizing this process reduces fear. Reducing fear can help in increasing outcomes. Well today I want to take you through an inside look to physiological birth and why it matters! Specifically we are going to dive into our hormones. When we know what is causing our body to do the things that it does the unknown becomes a little bit more familiar.
