So many moms go into labor terrified of pain, but what if pain wasn’t something to fear, but something to reframe? In this episode, Dr. Betsey shares her personal birth stories of facing discouragement from doctors and nurses during her first labor, and the life-giving encouragement she received from her doula and midwife in her second.

We’ll explore what Scripture says about pain—like John 16:21 and Jeremiah 29:11 —and how pain in labor can be purposeful and even holy. You’ll also learn the science of pain, why fear often intensifies what you feel, and practical mindset shifts and habits to help you breathe, relax, and persevere through contractions with peace.
