Join me every week as we listen to the stories of mamas sharing their motherhood and birth experiences. Hold space with me as we normalize these experiences and extend compassion. Hear from providers such as myself and others across the country bringing helpful tips, literature, and providing support.

This week's episode we hear from a mama who shares what is was like to be a mom of two, with little support and a decision to be intentional about allowing herself to enjoy her journey in motherhood. Listen and hold space with me as she drops gems about how her expectations have shifted over the years, how she became an advocate for her medical experiences and that of her children, the ways her beliefs have impacted her journey, how being a mom of two has changed the dynamics of her life and how she's leaning into the purpose she's found through parenting.

Head over to IG: birthstory.therapist to get today's prompt and explore some beliefs that may be impeding on the way you bring meaning to your story. It was useful for me and I hope it is for you also, mama!
