Have you ever heard of Amniotic fluid embolism? I hadn't until one of Nicole's videos showed up on my for you page. Nicole survived maternal death. Sounds wild and impossible, right? It's true, she experienced this rare condition that affected her just moments before she was set to deliver her third baby. Amniotic fluid embolism (AFE) is an extremely rare, but life-threatening complication that affects pregnant women shortly before, during, or immediately following labor and childbirth. And tragically a lot of women never make it. Nicole is a part of that extremely small percentage of women who experienced this and is here to share her story about it. This week we have the honor of hearing Nicole's story of AFE first hand as she shares her incredible story of survival and how she was able to literally survive death. She's using her experience to spread awareness, empowerment and education to all women in hopes of bringing peace to families who may have been touched by this condition as well as disseminating life saving knowledge. We are truly thankful she is here with us today and honored to share her story with you! To be a part of Nicole's growing community and connect with her, you can follow her on Instagram @beforeyoupush (https://www.instagram.com/beforeyoupush/?hl=en )Also you can follow along and learn more about her personal story on TikTok @beforeyoupush (https://www.tiktok.com/discover/before-you-push?lang=en )If you personally felt connected to the show and/or this episode and would like to purchase one of the few limited edition prints of the art that goes along with is as your own personal reminder to step into your own power you can do so on our website at www.iampower.club Print sales help us continue this mission to bring you inspiring stories that the world needs to hear. We would love for you to follow us on Instagram.

Seeing her mother work just as hard as her male counterparts to receive equal recognition, Danielle knew at a young age the disadvantages that she would face in the coming years. Fast forward, Danielle finds her passion for the arts and despite her family's wishes she graduates seeking work in the fashion industry. Landing a highly sought after career, she quickly discovers what it's like “working for the man” when she's pressured into working unhealthy hours in unfavorable conditions. When the pandemic hit and emotions where running high for everyone, Danielle suffered the loss of her best friend and mother. This loss and the realization that what she wanted out of life was more than what her corporate job was willing to offer her, she cut ties with the large corporation to seek out her life's potential and thus created her very own, women founded and ran marketing agency. She expresses that it wasn't easy. With no money and no support, Danielle left her full-time job to be a CEO of an all-female digital marketing agency.

This week I talked with Cassandra, a Functional Trauma Therapist about healing the gut-brain connection with people who have experienced early childhood traumas and/or a myriad of traumas. How people who tend to, depending on their lifestyle or genetics develop pathologies. From autoimmune diseases to mental health disorders, she shares with us her discoveries and how patients relapse with medical diets when we don't address our specific traumas. She suggests we cannot begin to heal until this is done.What does this mean?What does this look like? Cassandra explains how healing is a "top down, bottom up approach". From thought patterns to belief systems. And then again from the bottom up with environmental toxicities and chemicals, infections as well as how things like (breast) implants can wreak havoc on our bodies. Explaining how they can potentially cause a constant trauma response in the body when the body is already hyper vigilant and intolerant to invaders. She explains how the body feels the need to protect itself due to our traumatic experiences, how layering in an implant of any sort (screws, metal plates, etc.) can trigger a trauma response and open up a world of medical troubles. Clean it up and reprogram, she says. It can be done! Cassandra dives a little deeper and opens up about her own personal experiences with trauma and what led her to initially seek implants. She shares with us  how  her own traumas resulted in chronic sickness, manifesting to the point of needing her explant. This episode is jam packed with knowledge AND inspiration we can't wait for you to hear!We cannot thank her enough for her strength and kindness in sharing her story! To follow Cassandra's journey through health and healing follow her on Instagram @bewellwithhope (https://www.instagram.com/bewellwithhope/?hl=en)Cassandra is currently taking some time to heal personally from the internet but will be back soon. We love you and are rooting for you!!

Researchers discovered that children begin to express concerns about their bodies as young as age 5. FIVE!!!Media gets the bulk of the blame for airbrushing models and celebrities into unrealistic, and typically unattainable beauty standards. Then we blame society for glorifying these retouched versions of people. But did you know studies show that parents usually play a role in influencing their children? Makes sense, as we tend to verbally display our own insecurities and dislikes with our bodies. So how do we break this cycle? How do we genuinely instill into our children that they are perfect they way they are? It starts us, deep within. That's what Chloe has to say about the beauty standards set for us today. Listen in as she tells her empowering story of how she has embraced the beauty that is her own skin. Literally!
