Today, on the podcast, we have the dynamic and inspiring Rebecca Cohen! If you know Rebecca today, you know her as a wise woman, herbalist, authentic midwife, and pelvic care practitioner operating outside of the system and hosting women’s circles for her community in Louisville, Kentucky. What you might not know is Rebecca’s past as an OBGYN, and struggling with things like prolapse herself due to her rigorous workload that did not stop, even in her 5 postpartums in 8 years. Now in her perimenopause years, this episode is chock-full of Rebecca’s wisdom from a lifetime of humbly learning the ways of her body and raising her daughters to know their bodies too. I know you all will receive SO much from this episode!

In this episode…

• Embracing the Jewish Milkvah Bath post menstruation
• Reframing hot flashes as powerful and the medicalization of the perimenopause and menopause times of life
• Rebecca’s tumultuous experience on different forms of birth control, until she learned about FAM in 1995 and how she “stuck a thermometer up her vag” and has every cycle paper charted since then as her own personal health history
• Having 5 babies in 8 years as an OBGYN and the impacts of going back to 100 hour weeks at 4 weeks postpartum
• Rebecca’s slow process of recognizing that the medical system truly does not support families, and the origin story of Full Circle Holistic, Rebecca’s practice outside of the system
• The magical mother daughter retreat Rebecca attended with her eldest daughter (and every daughter since) that eliminated menstrual shame and got her children excited for their first bleeds
• The concept of “taking a crone year,” to become a wisdom keeper rather than knowledge bringer
