Birth & (Re)birth: Celebrating the Strength of Women with Sarah Ford
Description
No matter what our story is, at some point we all must learn to choose our hard, hold things loosely, and surrender.
Join me for a conversation with my wondrous friend Sarah Ford - birth doula and aspiring midwife, owner of (Re)birthing Wellness and Held Postpartum, and lover of all things health and wellness. This episode is packed with inspiration for every woman, whether you’ve birthed or not, whether it’s been awhile, or even if you had a difficult birth experience.
Sarah Ford’s passion for birth began as a homeschooled 11-year-old when she witnessed the home birth of one of her siblings. After starting her own business and attending her first birth as a doula at age 16 (!), she soon began official doula training with a midwife. Since then, Sarah has been serving families all over Tennessee as a doula and midwife-in-training and says, “I will never get over this work I get to do!”
In her gentle but powerful way, Sarah shares about:
How homeschooling helped her find her career path
Her perspective about natural birth
Body image and the power of women’s bodies
The importance of community
Her top nourishing practices for health and wellness
…And so much more
This episode is a celebration of all women and the strength we possess.
