LISTEN TO MY PODCAST

The Flourishing Mama Podcast

When I was pregnant, I couldn’t wait for my OB appointments… until I realized they were over in minutes. A quick heartbeat check, “Any questions?”, and then I was out the door. I would have loved real conversations about pregnancy, my baby, and what to expect for birth, but they never really came.

As I learned later, some of this was because I chose an OB instead of a midwife (a topic for another day), but it also revealed a bigger truth: our maternal healthcare system leaves too many parents without the education they deserve.

Through my own pregnancy and working with countless expecting moms, I’ve seen how much fear and uncertainty could be replaced with knowledge, confidence, and genuine excitement.

That’s why I started this podcast, to create a space where we strip away fear mongering, talk honestly about pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, and give you the tools to feel prepared, empowered, and confident in your journey.

If I’m not learning about birth, I’m probably talking about it (and yes, I’m that friend who lights up when the topic comes up, lol). Now, I’m inviting you into those conversations so you can feel supported every step of the way :)

In this episode, we will cover:

• The simple practice that trains your body to stay relaxed through intense sensations.

• Why combining mindful breathing with a body scan can help you release tension and work with your contractions.

• How partner-led counterpressure can become your go-to relief tool for back labor.

Have you ever wondered how unmedicated birth tips can help you feel calm and in control when labor sensations start to build?

… and a whole lot more!

If you’re ready to build birth confidence by practicing effective pain coping tools before labor even begins, then this episode is for you!
