This episode is very close to my heart, since I am training to be a doula!
Perhaps you don’t know what a doula is, or maybe you’ve only heard people in the medical establishment speak about them. A doula is first and foremost, an advocate and ally for pregnant and birthing women and their trusted partners and families.
All else that a doula is, stems from this…
Check out this episode for more details about what a doula is and how one could make your birth so much better!
Finding yourself pregnant can be a shocking and difficult time, especially if you were not planning the pregnancy.
This episode is meant to, without judgement, give you a brief overview of the many options there are open to you. You can choose to birth the baby or you can choose to terminate the pregnancy. Either choice you make, should be yours!
So, if you’re in need of a reminder of your options, check out this episode to hear a little bit more about some of your possible choices.
This episode is the first in a series focusing on the ins and outs and the biology of women’s bodies, right down to the most basic, cellular level. This episode shares with you much of the fantastic information in chapter one of Woman: An Intimate Geography – a fabulous and scientific book about what it means to be a woman and/or a female by Natalie Angier. I’ve recently reread this book because it is fantastic! Her first chapter focuses on the eggs in your amazing body. For example, did you know that:
You are born with all of the eggs you will ever have?
You are supporting the growth of your daughter’s eggs (your potential grandchildren) while she is still inside you?
Your eggs are the largest humans cells?
Your egg is shaped much like the star of our solar system, the sun?
Learn all this and more in this episode, where we get to the cells of the matter!
